    im not talking about the mauling, clinching, or rabbit punching

    i specifically said prime hopkins, not the spoiling old man of the past decade

    a prime hopkins was clinical on the inside

    Yeah, we saw that when Jones was beating him one-handed and Mercado was mopping the floor with his face.

    nothing happened in negotiations. they never got that far. Sven and his team made it public that they had no interest in Joe. i saw it for myself. where you watching boxing back then, or are you taking rumors from places like this forum into account?

    no, i don't believe Joe would have fought for 1 Euro. he was just making it clear that he wanted the fight. he would have went to Germany to fight though.

    the negotiations never got off the ground, so they didn't get as far as talking about money. Svens side shut it down from the get go. Wa55en was the one willing to negotiate.

    lots of Wa55en fighters left the UK. so i don't know where you got that rubbish from.
    it was Sven who didn't like leaving Germany. he never did so once in his whole career. in fact, German based fighters don't leave their comforts all that much. every once in a while it will happen, but it's rare.

    Beyer also wasn't interested in Joe. i saw him being asked with my own eyes a couple of times. you can't force them into the ring.

    how long did Lucas have his belt for? that belt was being passed around like a toy. people in British Boxing always used to make jokes about it.

    they either had rematches for the belt, or they had mandatory obligations to take care of. you know what the politics can be like.

    well Joe wasn't going to go over to Australia. Sky wouldn't have been able to work with that due to the times being all over the place. and Mundine certainly wasn't going to come over here.
    apart from that, no one talked about that fight with any interest.

    as i said before, Joe tried to have fights were he could unify with the others, like Reid, Mitchell, Ottke, Beyer and Woodhall, but they made it public that they didn't want to go down that route. only when they had nothing to lose did they show interest.

    Lacy and Kessler called Joe out, so it was easy to make those fights with them showing interest. Joe showed them he was number 1. and he showed the others why it was wise to duck him.

    no, i don't believe in the Tooth Fairy. but i do leave a mince pie out for Santa at Christmas. ;)

    it didn't take him 10 years to try and unify, you plum. he tried many times but they weren't willing to risk it.

    the only 2 fighters that were willing, were Lacy and Kessler. no one else wanted to fight him because they knew they wouldn't win. as shown when they did fight him after losing their belts.

    HBO forced him to vacate the IBF because they weren't willing to show the fight with Steiglitz. they wanted Joe to fight Manfredo instead.

    after winning the other 2 off of Kessler, he wanted a new challenge, so he went up to Lightheavy.

    yes, it is stupid to say Joe was garbage. but it's not when describing you as a poster.

    he's a bit more than a above average fighter. a lot more.

    he wasn't protected at all. he was willing to fight anyone. he never ducked a fight in his life.

    what do you think of the Americans then? they never leave the US.

    who did Joe avoid than? :think

    i take it you haven't watched prime Hopkins trying to fight on the inside?

    grabbing and mauling is what he did. it was ugly as ****. Hopkins had a bad rep for fighting ugly for years. :deal

    so you clearly don't know what you're talking about. clearly.

    no, Mercado was robbed. it was called a draw, but Mercado won the first fight.

    go to fight scoring school will you. and take most of the American judges with you.
