I had Calzaghe by 3 but it could've been more. John Rawling kept swaying me (by the way why wasn't Steve Bunce in Vegas?).

It wasn't a pretty fight, Hopkins was never going to come forward and let the thing open up. Had my heart in my throat for a while though after the first round knockdown.

I don't know if I want to see Calzaghe/Jones, I think there are other contenders Calzaghe should face first but I have a feeling he could be facing Hopkins again in September if Bernard continues this talk.
The minute I heard Woodhall and Rawling had it by 2 or 3 rounds, I knew it was closer to 5 or 6 since they gave Calzaghe no credit for anything early. They got caught in the hype.

I don't wanna see Hopkins fight ever again. I'm surprised I even stayed awake for one of his fights to be honest. Roy Jones Jnr can stay in the States. It's years too late to want the fight now. Where was he 5 years ago? Pavlik would get killed too. Better off thinking about Antonio Tarver if it's any Yank.
