It's an insult that Joe has to come to the US. Joe just packed 55,000 seats in the UK, so why the **** would he come to the US when Bernard can't pack 10,000? Stupid logic. I guess Calzaghe needs Bernard more than Bernard needs Calzaghe, but does he really? Imagine how impressive Bernard would look if he beat Calzaghe. Who really needs who?
:rofl Gratifying to know a man of your great intellect and boxing knowledge is capable of risible sillines. i thought AVTAK was a one off, but i digress.
I think they both honestly want to fight each other to enhance their legacies. And that's a good thing. But i think because Hopkins is the more highly regarded fighter, he has the leverage to pick where the fight will be at. If Joe wants to fight Hopkins, he will bite the bullet and come over here. Knowing how Hopkins loves to be in control of everything, there is no way in hell that at this point in his career, he's going to go overseas. NO CHANCE IN HELL!
To have the fight in Yankees stadium the way benard wants is stupid. These 2 would probably fill about a 3rd of the way (assuming 10,000 people fly over here to see Joe) and it's in the ****ing bronx so forget about a site fee. In Vegas the fight makes sense. They would fill the arena and there would be a handsom site fee.
The only point in fighting Hopkins is to do so in America. This is all about Joes legacy, he NEEDS to fight Hopkins in the US.
