    If you are honestly that far behind the learning curve, just stay quiet.

    No. Arum offered Warren $10 million and Cal fired Warren to fight a man he said was shot and would never fight in his autobiography for less money.

    SE countered the monetary claim. Read Rafael's take on it with behind the scenes statements. Also read Kalle Sauerland's statement on the main page...and still you should not forget N E G O T I A T I N G...why should someone begin negotiations with the money they think they are worth? - trust me, I am a salesman...

    Cite for the ten million offer?

    And, they can pay Calzaghe 10 million dollars, but not Abraham more than 1 million? :think

    It's just.. Pavlik would have to break his balls to try and get Calzaghe in the ring.. and he didn't simple as that. Calling each other out in boxing is old hat, it means nothing.

    And as already stated Calzaghe let Hopkins expose his flaws that has made him fight people like Rubio and aviod AA.

    Oh and AA. KO's Pavlik in 9
    And Calzaghe makes him look even more stupid than Bhop made him look. UD 12.

    It was pretty hot news when it happened. Pavlik is the local so I follow him closely. Take it or leave it but it was made and commonly known at the time. Cal's huggers all claimed he would make more fighting Jones. Didn't turn out that way as I recall. Arum picked Warren up at the airport for the Duddy fight. They were in hot and heavy negotiations for the Cal fight. Like I say. I remember this, but I'm not going to scour the interenet. It was all over this board at that time.

    Different fight obviously.

    I read Rafeal's article, and I do not put much stock in his so-called source. When you quote some "old school boxing guy" you're just repeating rumours, something fat ass Dan is notorious for.

    And I do think negotiations are getting serious. If Sauerland comes down to the $1 million plus German TV that you speculated on the other day, the fight will probably happen.

    You clearly do not have a ****ing clue what you are talking about. I am not going to go back over the bull**** Joe did from September 2007 thru July 2008. Joe called Kelly out at least 20 times. when Kelly said yes, Joe ran like a 10 year old girl who just sat on a rattle snake. Live with it.

    Yeah calling out means **** all jesus.. boxers do it all the time it's to get their face in the headlines. You have to bring something to the table. If Kelly did offer this '10m' can see a link I didn't hear about it ? if your right here I have no issues with saying sorry I don't follow Kelly as closely as you seem to.

    I 2nd that! :good

    If Pavlik signs to fight Duddy or Mora or some **** like that after AA is calling him out like this... he will look like a real ***** and a fraud.

    Arum will try to sell some BS line about the fight being too hard to negotiate etc... But its becoming clear thats not the case here.

    Time to put up or shut up. Are you the blue-collar, no nonsense tough-guy from Y-town... or just another mid-western white hypejob??? :deal
