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.

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...

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

Oh dear, Enzo is swearing like a trooper at Joe now.
He's still behind and we are at "half-time" in the bout.

He is, but Hopkins has been a bit of a house at times as well. |

Dunno, but Richie Woodhall has Hopkins ahead. |

Nice (if unpopular) tactics from Hopkins there, gave him the rest he needed but it was definitely a low blow.
Can see Hopkins nicking this. Calzaghe has been more energetic but Hopkins' punch economy has been very good, landing fewer but possibly better punches.
Too close to call after round 10.
