    He was known
    He had beaten Mitchell who Hopkins was considering fighting

    Calzaghe was more known than hakkar or are you going to say otherwise lol

    Yes calzaghe was high risk which is why Hopkins was being offered more for him.
    Possibly why Hopkins wanted it in America which was agreed by calzaghe


    Fact is though that you have changed what you were saying.
    You made out calzaghe timed going to America only to now say he was high risk
    Make up your mind

    no he wasn't.
    he never fought in the US until jones and hopkins were losing as many as they were winning.

    nobody knew who he was.
    explain to me how any fighter who has never fought in the US is known to the casual fan (you know, the ones who buy PPV's) and justifies a fight against the best fighters in the world without building uy his profile in the US.

    try to stay on topic.

    Why would calzaghe go to America for no reason if Hopkins wouldn't fight him?
    Calzaghe was on the Tyson undercard calling Jones out

    because no-one knew calzaghe in the US...
    you don't get to fight the best fighters in the world if you have no US profile, because casual fans (who buy PPV) don't know you.

    I see that.
    When you can present facts and they still argue then you know they are schooled and just not wanting the facts

    He was known
    He had been mentioned in the ring mag plenty of times
    If he wasn't known why were they big fights for Jones and Hopkins?

    He wasn't in the US because Hopkins decided against facing him

    Do you agree with that or not?

    Do you agree Hopkins decided against facing calzaghe?

    So you are telling me American fans are ignorant to fights outside of America?
    Wow I wonder why lacy who was known was traveling to fight unknown calzaghe in a foreign country?

    So America never saw that fight?

    not from 1994 onwards he wasn't.
    he was fighting outside the US, which is conveniently when he decided to call out roy jones.

    I really don't think he knows
    He is spouting his opinions when he doesn't know the facts.
    He just looks silly when doing it

    I wonder if he does really know and wants to try and re tell history to suit an agenda?
    Either way he looks daft
