    For The Record Calzaghe is Welsh and Haye Is English so completly different countries so the comment his sayin what he did regarding Hopkins and how a fight with Haye whould pan out cause there from the same country is wrong and in pretty much all sporting circules the welsh and english hate eachother , and this time calzaghe is speaking sense Haye's biggest weapon is his power and trust me he has scary power so the logic Hopkins whould get knocked out for the first time and possible brutally in a fight with Haye is a pretty smart prediction

    Roy Jones at his peak couldn't knockout Bernard Hopkins who had not yet fully developed his style. Chances of Dave Haye hurting Hopkins are small. Having said that, Dave Haye probably wouldn't accept the fight inasmuch as he would have little to gain and a lot to loose. Hopkins has a way of making everybody who fights him look bad, whether they beat him or not.

    They DESPISE each other in rugby union.It's always scintillating to watch them go at it during the 6 Nations.But technically,Cymru is a principality that is part of the United Kingdom and borders England on the western side of the island of Britain.Those from Cymru carry the same paasport as those from Scotland,England as well as the Northern Irish ones that choose to carry that passport.On the cover it says,"United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland".Just technically speaking.

    James Toney is nobody's tune-up. Especially for a fighter moving up 25+ lbs...

    I think Joe is just making an honest boxing call here. He was asked the question and gave an answer, but people always look upon anything he says suspiciously.

    It's not exactly ridiculous to think Hopkins at this point might struggle with a guy that has 50lbs on him as well as speed.

    LOOOOL scared mfker. lacey, kessler, jones (who was shot beyond belief before fighting JC) all got humiliated. Now he fears the only good name left on his resume would end up the same. You fought an old ass hopkins JC, your win meant nothing to begin with, so there's nothing to fear :yep
    if anything, he should give that advice to kessler to prevent any future ass whippings of that boy. I'd go a step further, he should pay kessler to retire.
    my oh my, that shitty resume is deteriorating pretty fast!

    Hopkins will, very soon, be 45 years old and he is still very good fighter.
