If he had started like he finished he would have had a good chance.</p> Well done Joe though, big big test that.</p>
Very strange fight, not good at all How Calzaghe won on one of the scorecards by 6-7 rounds is beyond me, one of the worst championships fights I've seen in a long time. Calzaghe was nothing like his usual self, never got the punches off, never dominated, and never looked comfortable. Saying that, he won, so who cares?
You can't box properly against a man that doesn't want to punch. After the first round, Hopkins decided he could grapple through to the end of the fight and claim it just by virtue of the knockdown. I'm not staying up again - watching American fighters like Hopkins is a bloody snooze-fest. As for the 'low-blow'...jesus wept..
