Chuck and I watched it. Too bad it couldn't go 15 like they're supposed to... Looked to me that Hopkins was getting Calzaghe to dance to his tune early, but that didn't last very long. It was a highly 'technical' fight. Calzaghe very tactfully scored with alacrity while not hurting Hopkins particularly. The lady judge must have been watching a different fight to score it the way she did.
Was the first time I had seen Calzaghe and I was impressed. Am sorry he hasn't fought in the US more and hope we see him come back for a few more deserving paydays. Seems very charismatic and genuine. Have to give credit to crazy Bernard too. He's had a great career.
