Joe Calzaghe Vs. Bernard Hopkins

[Hatesrats™]

Tonight's scheduled 12 round Light Heavyweight fight between the Bernard 'The Executioner' Hopkins (48-4-1, 32KO's) and Joe Calzaghe (44-0, 32KO's) should be a colossal affair of epic proportions. Dubbed the "Battle of the Planets", no other name could be more fitting as these two gladiators, separated by 7 years and many thousand miles, have found a destiny that will collide at center stage before the masses. Both considered future Hall of Famer's, there could be no better fight to be made. As we get set to embark on this grand affair, we take a very in-depth look at both men, as well as what it will take for each man to effectively redefine and/or seal his legacy.

Who do You Got?
I got to go with the experience factor in BIG fights, and BIG fight atmosphere.
That being said I take BHop in a very Dirty & Foul filled event.
there will be head butts & lot's of holding..
Bernard Hopkins by decision.

Hopkins is the underdog, but I think he can pull off a surprise victory here...even though he's 43, he's been a warrior throughout his life. LOL@him saying he'd never lose to a whiteboy, though.

He's stupid for saying that.

If Calzaghe would've said that he would never lose to a black man, there would've been a fuckin' uproar.

Fuckin' double standards.

I see B-Hop winning. He's faced the better competition....

[eS El Duque]

As a betting man..i'd put money on Hopkins because he still has it...but reality...hes gonna lose

[Styles1]

I was wondering why Whitney was in the crowd.... until they announced Ray J as the National Anthem singer...lol.

Hopkins is going to have to have high punch counts to keep up with Joe. I think that alone will get Joe the early rounds. Close fight but I say Calzaghe by split decision. Rematch is then in another 6 months.

B Hop knocked him down already. This is going to be a good one.

[Styles1]

^ both fighters sucked balls.... this fight blew big time. I have Joe C. winning on aggression alone but we'll see in the next moments who won. Joe was punching like a girl tonight though.

[Styles1]

LMAO.... B Hop lost to a white guy. Now what?

True. I thought B-Hop did a good job negating Joe to get into a good rhythm with his punches early. But from the 4th on he got into the fight. Although I was not impressed at all by Joe's punching power in the least bit.
