Rematch anyone?

[dan-b]

No-ones mentioned it yet but how would people feel about a rematch?

[Snorkel]

I doubt either fighter wants it. Hopkins doesn't need it and Joe's looking to improve his legacy. Neither have enough time left in their careers to make it worthwhile.

From a promoters point of view, there's little point also. They struggled to sell out this fight, it was non PPV and it was hardly the kind of fight to attract new fans. I'd be surprised if any parties call for it before looking at all the other options.

[hitman_hatton1]

a rematch of that. :patsch

no thanks mate. :yep

bring on roy jones.

least we get a good skills match. :bbb

Calzaghe Jones is a joke fight. Jones was knocked out by Tarver & Johnson over 3 years ago.

[kurt2006]

No thanks, I hope Bhops retires now. Never seen him in an exciting fight against a similar opponent (apart from when RJJ beat him). The only good fights were against blown up lightweights.

[hitman_hatton1]

Calzaghe Jones is a joke fight. Jones was knocked out by Tarver & Johnson over 3 years ago.

true.

he was beaten by those 2.

but he's won 3 fights since then.

against admittedly sub-par opposition.

tarver and dawson are fighting each other on showtime.

that leaves pavlik and johnson.

not an awful lot out there for joe.

So if he becomes the third man to knock out a past it Jones is he a "legend killer"?

Pavlik fight would have to be at SMW and Johnson does not even figure on anyones plans (although it would be a good fight).

No only Danny Williams can be the legend killer.

[dan-b]

No only Danny Williams can be the legend killer.

Are you having another quiet weekend?

[jc]

Nah no need. The right man won, and it wasnt that good to watch anyway.

imk hoping Joe will get to fight a Daswon.Tarver or Pavlik. He beats RJJ easy imo.

[Akxtinguish]

That Johnson KO goes down as a one of the massive ones.

Huh?

[dalek]

if they rematch then joe should make him come to wales,i think he'd win a bit more comfortably at home.

[bizzer07]

i'm a massive joe fan and i'm well glad he beat b-pops last night. The only thing is though i dont think he'll beat RJJ easily though, it'll be the same as last night if anything, but without the ridiculouse acting by that old c**t

[BIG WORM]

joe wont go no where near hopkins again, he under estimated him, he was luck to get the win, i thought he lost

[TFFP]

Wasn't close enough to warrant a rematch. Plus it wasn't exactly aesthetically pleasing

[mofo2]

No-ones mentioned it yet but how would people feel about a rematch?
I would'nt object Dan,but it was'nt the greatest of fights and I don't know if it would sell:bbb

[kurt2006]

Not really been betting and am £60 up after a couple of bets so not quiet.

DW used the legend killer tag after he beat old Tyson hence my reference to DW.

[kurt2006]

Hopkins looked dire as well - he looked fine when he got a shot off, but if whenever he opened up Joe was catching him as well.

Joe just bumbled about till halfway in. if he'd just jabbed from the start and kept that in Hopkins' face, he'd have had an easy night.

Bhops always look dire, the man is the master at boring boxing and running around the ring.

[TheChamp1000]

No-ones mentioned it yet but how would people feel about a rematch?

I wouldnt want to see a fight like that again.
Not a good option for Joe who only has 1 year left, maybe 2 fights. I wouldnt waste 1 on a rematch.

[Akxtinguish]

That Johnson KO goes down as a one of the massive ones.

Huh?

No need to post a vid, I'm well acquainted with the knockout, I'm just struggling to see your point.

[Max Molyneux]

Joe's had experiance with Hopkins and would win a rematch easier. Hopkins doesn't deserve one either.

[The taff]

It was an ugly fight, but most of Hopkins fights are ugly, so no rematch, there's no need anyway - i thought Joe was a clear winner.

[Akxtinguish]

No need to post a vid, I'm well acquainted with the knockout, I'm just struggling to see your point.

Ok, I get you. It was a bit off-topic. You mentioned Roy Jones getting KO'd by Johnson, and I felt obliged to put in a word about what a huge KO it was.

[dan-b]

Ok, I get you. It was a bit off-topic. You mentioned Roy Jones getting KO'd by Johnson, and I felt obliged to put in a word about what a huge KO it was.

Yup well it was a terrible KO suffered by a fighter past his best over three years ago. Now Joe thinks he'll be a "legend killer" by beating him.

[Akxtinguish]

Yup well it was a terrible KO suffered by a fighter past his best over three years ago. Now Joe thinks he'll be a "legend killer" by beating him.
On top of that, he seems to be saying that he'll only have one more fight before retiring undefeated. I sure hope that isn't the one.

PS: Don't want to rub it in, but the loss at Crystal Palace isn't exactly a consolation. Unlucky, bro. I guess it was just one of those days.

[BIG WORM]

hopkins deserves a rematch definitely, i think he can beat joe if he trys hard enough, he can out power joe, i dont think hopkins believs in himself that much..... that fight last night was his to win he just let joe take the piss and rob a decision

hopkins had everything he needed to fuck joe up, he didnt take enough risks to convince the judges

[bigbadbri]

Never in a million years should Hopkins get a re-match, i dred watching his fights because he bores me to tears. I'm not a huge Calzaghe fan but at least he comes to fight and that's what i pay my money for, Hopkins on the other hand is Calzaghe's nemesis.

For the sake of boxing, NO REMATCH!!!!!

[kurt2006]

Joe fought a bad fight, but a lot of that was Hopkins' awkwardness and spoiling - but come on... he outworked and outlanded the old fucker!

Sure did, da old fcker did his usual boring run around and added hugging to it.

Bhops is a dirty fcker, he was using his head and the low blow fiasco was worse than the acting Rivaldo did in the world cup match.

[Benjiabc]

Agreed 100%. JC has better things to do than fight boring Bhops. The guy is a complete bore to watch. The hype bubble around him was burst by the white chap from Wales today.

i think this post shows what a twat you are, hopkins was at what would be seen as his best at this timwe in his career and joe had a bad day and joe still won pretty convincingly IMO bernard never beats joe

[kurt2006]

Right. You do not win fights throwing 20 punches a round if the other guy is throwing and landing 60 punches around. The constant hugging also did Bhops no favours.

[Beatboxer]

I want Hopkins to retire and Joe to fight Pavlik, not Jones whom a win over means fuck all now.

See my thread for details pleased if you can be arsed reading.

If both were younger I would say however, that it merited a rematch. But for Joe some STILL think he needs to enhance his legacy and I don't, think a Hopkins win would do that given thats he has already beaten him and for B-Hop, I think a graceful Hagler esque exit wouldn't be a bad way to go at all.

True.... I'd like Calzaghe-Pavlik now. I don't rate pavlik so hopefully there will be no arguing If I make a pred on this one.

[dan-b]

Can I just say, why does kurt2006 spend him whole time trying to flame people? I think most on here on the Brit fourm are quite reasonable & we've had some good adult discussions on here. Beatboxer & most of the others at least give people credit but all this idiot does is slag people off.

He never has anything constructive to say & his sole existance on here is to try & argue with people. It's sad boring & frankly I've had enough of it. How about we all put him on our ignore list?

[Fat Joe]

How about we all put him on our ignore list?

Why? Because he has the audacity to disagree with you.

I haven't read anything he has written so I shouldn't really have stuck my nose in.:oops:

[mike464]

I wouldn't mind seeing it but I doubt very much Calzaghe would want it. Hopkins should take the moral victory and try to get a rematch with Roy Jones.

[dan-b]

I haven't read anything he has written so I shouldn't really have stuck my nose in.:oops:

Don't worry I'm probably being a little bit harsh it just becomes very tiresome with him throwing insults at every fighter he doesn't like.

There was nothing moral about Hopkins' performance, surely even a hater like yourself can see that.

Do you do anything besides trying to disect my posts on your bitch bhops ?

Is that all you ever do ? Pretty sad existance if that is all you concentrate on.

Yes I do not like bhops as he is boring in the ring and always negative, watch him against eastman (another over-rated boxer) and see how he is on his bike for 12 rounds.

Maybe you should try reading my non bhops posts (oh I do not think much of hatton either), PBF, Haye, Lewis, Benn, Eubank, RJJ, Hagler even the likes of Bruno and Horace Notice I respect BUT you can't shit unless you read a post from me about your bhops.

Well just for you again, the guy was always over-rated and a dirty wrestler, Benn, Eubank Watson etc etc all had his number just like RJJ still would do a complete number on him.

[kurt2006]

Not at all mate, I'm all for disagreement but this guy is just constantly looking for the flame & contributes nothing positive. Look at his history.

You are a bitch ass bhops ******************. DO YOU READ ANY OF MY NON HATTON NON BHOPS POSTS ? NO so go do yourself up your batty.

You are like one of those kids at school who is best buddy with the school bully (bhops), everything he does and says is right and everything else wrong. Grow out your childish fetish for bhops and get a real boxing great as a hero rather than a dirty wrestling guy like bhops, might even cure your constipation.

[kurt2006]

Don't worry I'm probably being a little bit harsh it just becomes very tiresome with him throwing insults at every fighter he doesn't like.

Reasoned rationale is given as to why I do not like them. In the case of bhops it is because he is boring, a runner and dirty. He is the ginger bread man of boxing.

I love people like Benn who would be ready to take shots to land a big bomb and not runners like you.

[dan-b]

Er yeah I read your rants Kurt & they're not worth a detailed response.

[dan-b]

By all means enjoy the win but the way the likes of Kurt have been going on you'd think Hopkins had raped a child or something. Yes he did become more boring as the years went by but it was either that or retire years ago. He didn't always fight like that, he used to be very aggressive.

I actually enjoyed the fight saturday night. Yeah it wasn't Marquez Vazquez or Gatti Ward but was good for different reasons.

[Fat Joe]

I predicted a Calzaghe stoppage late on. After 2 rounds I was like, "Oh shit, he's making Calzaghe look like a bum". But luckily (from my point of view) Calzaghe woke up in time.

The fight was good. I think people are trying to down play the whole event and the two competitors. Both guys are the best in the Light Heavy Weight division by a distance and Calzaghe proved supreme in alot easier fashion at Super Middle. I have no problems with either man and I hope B-Hop has a good farewell fight against Dawson or Johnson.

[Fat Joe]

I actually enjoyed the fight saturday night. Yeah it wasn't Marquez Vazquez or Gatti Ward but was good for different reasons.

It was no classic but it was a big occasion and exciting in it's own way. I scored it 114-113 Calzaghe. For the last minute and a half I had a vision of Calzaghe getting floored again and losing the decision - nerve wracking.

[kurt2006]

Er yeah I read your rants Kurt & they're not worth a detailed response.

Bascially you are not capable of responding. You are a bhop shill and the JC fight showed that he was not even a good defensive boxer.

He has never been in an interesting fight unless it was against a blown up Trinidad or ODH.

He might have been floored if Bhops had bothered to let his hands go but he was too busy trying to hug all the time.

Thats funny, I think if you look at my history you'll see I have often debated people with regards Hopkins even when outnumbered. The difference being I felt they were intelligent & worthy of my time. You're just a sad troll. Oh & you have overused the word shill. May I suggest you use an online thesaurus?

:lol: ok you bhops nuthugger.

Oh so now I should look at your history ? No need its obvious you think the sun shines out of bhops arse. Plus you could not be bothered to check my history and instead gave your usual b/s about me being negative in every post.

Your worse than a sad troll, you are a sad little ladyboy infatuated with bhops and pretending he is bigger in boxing than he really is and some sort of defensive genius. If your isea of defensive genius is running around the ring, hugging and bullshit acting then that differs greatly from my perception of real defensive boxing.

Still not provided an example of a bhops fight against a natural MW that was interesting (apart from the RJJ one where he had his dirty cheating ass whooped).

No need to use a thesaurus as my command of the queens english is more than adequate to bamboozle you.

:hi: You have no answer as bhops has never been in such a fight. Even against eastman he was on his bike (bar the hugging) for 12 rounds.

Well if you wanted a discussion you would base your posts on facts. You would not point fingers at me for being negative in all/most my posts without getting off your arse and checking the facts. But you too damn lazy (like bhops) to bother doing this. If you had checked my posts you would have ascertained that I have always been begative about hatton, bhops uss cunningham and a host of german boxers.

You really are desperate to talk with me aren't you? I suggest you do some research & then come back to me. It would appear you only know "post Trinidad" Hopkins fights.

And before you say "I wouldn't want to research that hugging thug" or something along those lines don't bother. Way too predictable.

Nah. onourway is actually a pretty intelligent guy with maybe just a touch too much of an obsession for Hatton. kurt2006 is just an attention seeking flamer who wants to turn every thread into an argument to help whittle away his spare time. Either that or it's his attempt at humour.

[JonOli]

If they were both younger I'd love to see a rematch....obviously its too late in the day for them both though.

[kurt2006]

Its actually the other way round, this arse sits there looking at all my posts on bhops so he can do his usual bhops propaganda and claim all my posts are negative.

You do take a very active interest in my posts Mr Dan. Now if you can't provide an answer as to an interesting Bhops fight then go play with your bhops blow up doll, you can hug each other and pretend you are JC.
