Well done to Hopkins. He deserved the win. However, his fights are awful viewing. I love boxing, but I find his fights have no real interest for me. It's'far too messy and there is no flow to the action.
Is it wrong of me to want to see him sparked out in a couple of rounds so we don't have to suffer through another predictable snoozefest?
Well done Hopkins 48 and still going strong

For me Hopkins winning at this ripe old age solidifies just how good Calzaghe was :)
Calzaghe reduced him to avoiding the fight by holding on for dear life,and cheating by crawling around on all fours fiend fouls an begging the ref for points back

I agree. They tried to say B Hop was past it when Calzaghe fought him, and obviously he wasnt. They tried to say Joe had a padded record and that he just slapped, again not true. He made a real mess of Jeff Lacy, at the time unbeaten. He beat Kessler, something Froch couldnt do. Calzaghe was very special as time has proven.mrpedigree wrote:For me Hopkins winning at this ripe old age solidifies just how good Calzaghe was :)
