If You're A REAL Hopkins Fan...


 If You're A REAL Hopkins Fan...
By Grisly - 10-19-2008, 09:21 AM - Boxden > Pro Boxing presented by BX


.....then you would agree with me on this.

Roy Jones to beat Calzaghe.
and Bernard to ink the fight with Roy.

and give Roy the[..] whooping he been running from for years.
it'd be like the defining moment in bernard's eyes.
that's the fight he's been searching for his whole career since the first fight.
granted, roy's an old man now, and it wouldn't really prove much since i think hopkins would pull off a sure win. but it's just the principle.

Then retire and ride off into the sunset after destroying the young lion Pavlik.

He's got nothing more to prove.
I just wish some of ya'll mu!!as would give the man the credit he deserves and been fighting for his whole career.

He hadda fight into his 40's just to get his respect and it's a damn shame.

But he'll forever go down in my eyes as the greatest fighter of my time.

Bar none.

Roy Jones, we coming.

Executioner style.

if your a real boxing fan, youd realise that out of the three, Hopkins is the worst, followed by RJJ.

B.Hop is garbage.

It makes me laugh that now Hopkins has beaten Pavlik, everybody all of a sudden is and has always been a Hopkins fan, where you lot been?

^ Why? cuz he chooses not to conform to how fans want a fight to go. Is it cuz he takes his time picking apart opponents. Besides beating bhop,kessler and jeff 'overhyped' lacy, whats calzaghes track record? B-hop fought trinidad, de la hoya in their primes and crushed them.... his last few fights, he never really lost in a convincing fashion.... he also had a reign close to calzaghes ITS JUST YOUR EUROPEAN FANS GIVE YOUR OWN GUY TOO MUCH CREDIT WHEN ANOTHER MAN IN BERNARD HAS DONE THE SAME !!, IF NOT MORE TO CEMENT HIS LEGACY. AMERICANS ARE QUICK TO DISCREDIT THEIR OWN BREED, ESPECIALLY THESE d*ckRIDING ANALYSTS. In my eyes, it goes Hopkins,Roy, Calzaqhe... fights with them now dont mean !! because their winding down their careers... but to each his own, just dont discredit b-hop because his fights are dictated by his own actions...

If your not an athletically gifted human being who enjoys boxing and wants to see true skills displayed in the ring... b-hop is your man ... but if u like people gifted with fast hands, quick reflexes which have deteriorated then jones is your man ... and if you want someone who was too !!ing !! to use airplanes to come to the US during his prime to prove himself.... calzaghe is your man...(not saying that he isn't talented, but compared to two other GOATS he's not there even if he beats them when their in their 40's, although hes no young buck himself)

oh, of course. now i see why. he's from WALES.
one of those !! face fan boys that root for that !! who made his whole legacy fighting !!in trash outside the US in his home arena.
real convincing.

i pray night and day roy jones hooks the !! out of calzaghe face and trashes him.
cus that's what bernard did to his[..] in the 2nd round.
tell your boy go get a !!in chin first before he pops fly.
Roy got a stronger punch than bernard.

ANYBODY that claims to be a boxer, and has the NERVE to talk !!, and then claims he's going to retire after fighting Roy.....gets NO RESPECT in the game from anyone.

that just proves he's a !!. He literally would be undefeated by having beat basically NOBODY. and he'll be proud of that. and so will england. cus they're [!]s.

The only reason Pavlik fought hopkins was......because calzaghe tied his boots and !!in ran.

STOP TALKIN !!, YOUR MAN IS *sniff* *sniff* PUSSSSY!

no welshmen wimps plz. if hopkins fought calzaghe like he did pavlik, calzaghe wouldve gotten knocked out . !! outta here
 10-19-2008, 11:47 AMaway - #8
Grisly
now, dont get me wrong. calzaghe fought a good fight.
bernard should've stayed on him after the knockdown.
im not here arguing that bernard was robbed.
calzaghe won legit. sort of. he did it with pitter patter punches that did nothing, but in the eyes of the judges, thats all that matters. so he won.

what i'm saying is, calzaghe beating bernard HARDLY validates him or his career as ANYTHING even NEAR legendary.
kid barely walked halfway down that path.
so its laughable when calzaghe welshman fans want to say hes a legend and him saying hes gonna retire after he fights roy. its gay.
nicca never did !! in his whole career to brag about.

!! outta here.

why did he run from the fight then?......

Hopkins would've beaten Jones in 2001 when they should've fought and he will beat him 2009 when they probably will fight.

I really dont think Roy will beat Calzage. I mean if he lets his hands go he can win easy, but he dont let his go no more. Hopkins should try to get a fight with Chad Dawson.
 10-20-2008, 10:07 AMaway - #13
Grisly
yea, im not sure Roy will beat calzaghe either

i just HOPE he does lol. i want bernard to whoop that niccas[..] once and for all after all them years of runnin from the rematch.

lol you must have forgot roy done whopped his with one hand (literally).And you can !! and moan about how bernard was still green but bernard was older then roy and had about the same amount of fights...and if you take that loss away it would have been like 40 straight wins for hopkins

second, must have also forgot hopkins was the one who turned down the fights...roy was the champ,roy was the money maker,roy was #1 p4p and he was going to give hop a 55-45 split..hopkins wouldn't take...he wanted 50 50 after he was already beaten and the challenger

60/40 i'll whoop that[..]!!

You're all morons. How can you hype Hopkins over Calzaghe when Calzaghe beat him?

The Hopkins who thought Pavlik would have taken a far more thorough beating if he thought Joe like that.

How is this so difficult for you people to grasp? The only reason Hopkins survived is because he was scared to fight Calzaghe. If Hopkins had the stomach to try and fight Calzaghe in the same fashion he tried to fight Pavlik he would be dismantled, and massacred.

Hopkins got the best result he could have gotten against Joe by fighting on the back foot and clinching every time Joe threw.

That is the only way for Hopkins to take a respectable loss to Calzaghe. To fight on his backfoot and clinch. If he fought in a more agressive and open manner like he did Pavlik he would have been utterly destroyed. Hopkins knows this, which is why Hopkins fought in the manner in which he fought when fighting Calzaghe.

Secondly. Whoever said Joe needs to get a chin is a !!ing idiot. That's one thing you can't say Joe doesn't have. He has a jaw of granite. He just got caught slippin.

And Hopkins is in no position to be calling out Roy after the amount of running hiding and blatant !!ry Old man Hop has done regarding a fight with Jones.

i've been boxing since i was a kid and know the ins and outs and it just irks me when i see somebody overrated.Honestly i knwo this will!!you off but everybody from europe always think their guys are the best but the fact is they just stay over there and fight eachother....they don't come to america and fight the cream of the crop...from darius running his mouth about roy and never comin over here to fight to calzaghe finally fighting top contender but now everybody is old and out of their prime in that weight division.I give props to hatton for coming over in his prime and fighting the best...he gotta beating by mayweather but atleast he manned up and fought the top....who has calzaghe beat?I give4 him credit for beating kessler but i feel hopkins woulda whooped his[..] if he came out and fought like he normally does.When he fought winky and joe he looked terrible.He put joe down in the first round and just stood back like he was trying to conserve energy the whole fight...like he was tired.

anyway i give roy jones a shot against almost nobody at this point in his career...but don't be surprised if roy takes a win over calzaghe because he's very overrated in my opinion

You're an idiot though. Calzaghe might be overhyped. It doesn't change the fact he beat Hopkins, and if Hopkins fought like he "normally" does against Calzaghe, he would have been massacred.

If you box and know the ins and outs like you claimed you'd know Hopkins got the best result he could possibly get against Calzaghe by fighting like a homosecksual.

And Roy isn't beating anybody. I debate with people like you ever since i joined boxden.

If i listened to you 'experianced' boxing fans who had this inside knowledge on boxing and European [!]ry then Calzaghe would have lost to Lacy, Manfredo, Bika, Kessler and Hopkins.

But he beat all of them. I don't take any of your opinions seriously.

I think Stogz is the only person who while we primarily disagree, he called every fight accurately.

The rest of you are just hopefuls rooting for your own. You're void of any logic.

Calzaghe is overhyped? ok maybe by UK fans but RJJ is overhyped by USA fans..

I don't bother arguing anymore, all Hopkins fans are idiots

lol...if that's what you'd like to believe so be it...fact is americans don't really care where a fighter is from we just like to see the best...you saw when hatton came over he was cheered by many...same with mexican and puerto rican fighters....fact is the only people who think calzaghe and these european fighters are these all mighty superior boxers are people who are from that country.That's fine...their is always delusional home town fans in every sport...you just happen to be one of them...look who you named as his credentials....manfredo (lol..a contender fighter who came and stood there and is just a journeymen),bika (for real?),lacy (about as one dimensional as it gets and barely pulled out victories over washed up bums before calzaghe),i'll give him credit for kessler and hopkins (although kessler is another who won't come over and really fight the top)...that's it...who else has he beaten to be the p4p God you guys act like he is?

and lol...calzaghe didn't even put a scratch on hopkins face...how would he have beat the !! out of him if he let his hands go.hopkins stood there in front of him the entire night and joe couldn't hit him
