    I will, I will!:lol: Trust me, it hasnt slipped my mind. I've just had a lot on my plate lately. It should be up within the next couple of weeks, still getting all the equipment together. Just keep checking back.

    We should all begin to put up rare footage of Golota if anyone has any. Something to do while we get word from Joecool on Golota's plans, if he even has any.

    Golota has a lot of respect for Hopkins, he called Hopkins an inspiration in an interview last year, so he wouldn't be interested to fight a man he admires and has met. Hopkins approached at ringside of Trinidad-Mayorga and gave Andrew advice for his upcoming match against Ruiz. He told Golota to "Stay focused, stay focused." Golota really appreciated that from Hopkins.

    That was my point. Golota also once described Hopkins as his "hero".

    My esteemed colleague mistakenly thought I was advocating a match-up between Golota and Hopkins.

    :lol:

    You do realize that if Golota actually decided to make a comeback (at the age of 41), this will be his 6th comeback attempt?

    Lewis
    Grant
    Tyson
    Brewster
    Austin


    I dont count the Bowe or Ruiz losses cause even though he didnt officially win, he was the better fighter in many eyes.

    I'd like him to fight a bum for a fairwell outing, but thats the best we can expect from this ol' broken down clunker.

    Andrew ... are you ready to rumble?

    Beat Wlad on 2 weeks notice, then kick Valuev's ass,
    then finally get rust off with Botha.
