Arrow BOXING 2008 - Hopkins vs Calzaghe - 04/19/2008

Saturday, April 19 at 9:45 PM ET/6:45 PM PT on HBO - Thomas & Mack Center, Las Vegas

12 round LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT BOUT
  • Bernard Hopkins (48-4-1, 32 KOs) +215
  • Joe Calzaghe (44-0, 32 KOs) -255

I hope this is a good one. Can the old man beat the undefeated? Will the 35 year old take out the 43 year old? I really think Hopkins should of stayed retired.

Who do you think will win?

Hopkins in it only for the money he owes, he will not try to get hurt and he will not win.

Default Hopkins will win

B Hop will win via KO (watch out for early stop by ref)

Serra/Hopkins to win = nice parlay

Hopkins still not getting the respect deserved!

Calzaghe is one of boxings 'greats'. You will see that tonight.

Hopkins is too old, now.

Calzaghe will be one of the few fighters to remain unbeaten throughout his career.

Calzaghe was on canvas in the first - but got up immediately.

He was the aggressor the whole fight. Hopkins backing away and holding.

O.K - But the judges who gave it to Calzaghe did so by big margin
