48 wins 32 by way off KO.

Think the occasion will get to JC.

He has fought Taylor and lost twice, he was murdered by Winkey and got a shocking call, he beat a Welterweight De La Hoya, Hopkins is no Hagler when it comes to ability, he is not concussive despite his hand picked opponent record stating otherwise.

As easy a fight to call as the Haye knock out of Macarenelli was IMO.

Can't see any other outcome other than a points decision for Joe. I just can't see either knocking the other out and both their records back that up. With it going the distance I don't see the controversy others are predicting and see Joe taking it by 2, 3 or 4 rounds.

Calzaghe in Round 10

Hopkins is past it.

Its got Points decision for Calzaghe written all over it this fight. 5/6 pretty decent odds imo.

Hopkins has a punchers chance... and the fact he likes southpaws concerns me slightly... but I also believe him to be utterly overrated, building his rep on over blown welterweights... think he will struggle to contain Joe... I hope the cocky get gets stopped in 8 but I suspect points. With BHop looking like he's had his but handed to him after 12...

Dose anybody have setanta on freeview i only ask because when i tried to watch the woods v tarver fight last week setanta went of at 3am and the message on the screen told me to tune to channel 38 to watch the fight but when i did nothing happend so consequently i missed the fight just wondering if anyone could help me out befor i settle down for tonights fight and the same happens.
ive already tried ringing setanta but got the usual message of due to high number of calls plese call back on monday.

A points decision for a British boxer in America, fighting an American, we can but dream. Joe will have to stop to win.

Calzaghe put on his booty in Round 1.

Oh dear, Enzo is swearing like a trooper at Joe now.

He's still behind and we are at "half-time" in the bout.
