About time we had one of these...
I caught some of the Joe Calzaghe fight from last weekend on BBC earlier. Looks like Kessler gave him some problems for a while but Calzaghe came through like the champion he is. I'd fancy him to beat Bernard Hopkins, given Hopkins' advancing years.
A couple of big fights tonight. Miguel Cotto takes on Shane Mosley later on and in about half an hour David Haye, who could be Britain's next big hope at heavyweight challenges Jean-Marc Mormeck for the WBA and WBC cruiserweight titles. Haye says it will be his last fight at cruiserweight, win or lose, meaning no clash with Joe Calzaghe's stable-mate Enzo Maccarinelli.
The Haye fight could be explosive. Haye has won 19 of his 20 bouts with 18 wins inside the distance. His only defeat came when he was stopped by Carl Thompson after punching himself out in the early stages.
Mormeck has won 33 of his 36 fights, though 2 of those defeats were on points very early in his career. He was knocked out by O'Neil Bell last year but avenged that defeat with a unanimous decision to reclaim his titles back in March.

David Haye got up off the canvas last night to KO Jean-Marc Mormeck in the 7th round and win the WBA and WBC cruiserweight titles.
Miguel Cotto kept his unbeaten record with a unanimous points win over Sugar Shane Mosley. He is likely to face the winner of next month's Hatton-Mayweather fight.

Mayweather had just too much for Hatton in the end, stopping him in the 10th round.
Elsewhere last night, Amir Khan kept his unbeaten record and retained his Commonwealth lightweight title with a 1st round stoppage of Graham Earl.
Wayne Elcock failed in his bid to become Britain's latest world champion when he was stopped by IBF middleweight champion Arthur Abraham in 5 rounds.
