Think Joe is technically the better boxer but it will take some punch off him to knock out Hopkins, and he deserves alot of credit to be fair, the guy is what 43? that must take some effort to box top class fighters at that age but I am still definetly rooting for Calzaghe. Go on Joe!

I imagine it will be around 4am Sunday morning unfortunatly.

Has anyone seen the undercard for this fight yet? It is quite possibly one of the worst, ever.

He's better than Kleberson
Anderson-son-son-son
He's our midfield magician
On the left, on the right
Do the Samba beat tonight
He is class, he sh*gs brass
And he sh*ts on Fabregas

Just seen the weigh in and thought Joe handled it very well. Hopkins tried to poke fun at him, but Calzaghe just laughed at him, took the applause from the crowd and walked off. Hopkins didn't look too happy. :lol:

Great performance from Ryan Rhodes tonight,just a matter of time before he cleaned out Woolcome.Fantastic body shots softened him up but what a punch to finish it,just hope Woolcome is okay now though.

winning like never before. decoys. mouse traps. chicken wings. lollie pops. shepperds. the crusher. grapples. big league. In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11

I don't think Calzaghe will get the praise he deserves either way.

If he beats Hopkins people will say 'He's beat an old man. A has-been.'

And if he loses people will say 'We told you so. He's been a protected fighter.'






YEAH LIKE WHATEVER!
TEAM UP! TEAM UP!

Agreed. He's arguably been one the UK's greatest ever boxers and he's definitely up there as best P4P in the World today. His work rate is superb, he throws lots of punches, he's super fit, he's fast, he's intelligent and throws punches from lots of different angles.

He'll still be undefeated this time tomorrow, I've no doubts about it.

Calzaghe has never recieved the praise he deserves in my opinion.

Really hope he knocks Hopkins out and as always he will fight a good fight.

Come on Joe.
