Calzaghe was scared? Hopkins wouldn't let him get a word in he just shouted, Joe kep his cool and laughed in Hopkins face. And when they fight Joe's fists will be stuck in Hopkin's face. :good When they fight it will be Calzaghe +12.
yeah but it proves that americans think they have all the best fighters in boxing. Kesler could beat Hopkins any day, and i'm going out on a limb here to say that Kess could have beaten him in his Middleweight hey day.
Listen right, none of these fighters are scared of each other. Joe Calzaghe psychologically i compare to Lennox Lewis, always in a positive mind frame and does not give much away, his persona never changes. That in itself can be very intimidating for opponents. Bernard Hopkins isn't going to be scared of any man, outside of a ring "With a gun or a knife", he is master at psychological warfare he using bully psychology, like Muhammad Ali, like Floyd Mayweather. But Bernard Hopkins has that street look, that bad man time, imposing physical make up. He is imtimidating man with a intimidating stare, much more imposing than Floyd Mayweather. None of these fighters are intimidated. But Bernard Hopkins is looking for any weaknesses in Joe Calzaghe, by confronting him. Just like when Mike Tyson reverted back to the street in the Lennox Lewis press conference. Tried to intimidate find any weaknesses in his mind set, but there where none. Lennox Lewis threw the first punch, and did not back down. Mike Tyson looked into the eyes of the Lion and saw no fear, he lost the fight that night. Bernard Hopkins is doing the same thing to Joe Calzaghe. Bernard Hopkins may have seen a weakness, that goes unnoticed by fans, and reporters. But trained fighting machines, from the streets straight outta jail. One look can say it all.
What Really Happend when the two met Hopkins" Yo Calzaggggghhhheeee Yall Better Recgonisse the oldest ever Boxer in the world Forman aint got nothin on this, they gunna make me hall of Famer Boy For Been The oldest boxer , im already in that book" Calzaghe " Hopkins Man im with it, im cool , im down with it yo , u can see im a legend to im Joe Calzaghe just beat kessler , Hopkins " Kessler , whos kessler Calzaghe "Kessler can beat you man dnt mess with me im joe calzaghe Hopkins "Naa Dawg u got it wrong , im so old i forgot who kessler is man , see dementia homie" Calzaghe "So WE gunna do this **** then Hopkins Hopkins "What? , Who r u? Calzaghe "Damn That Dementia man anybody got Winky Wrights number Hopkins " Who? thats what really happend evreyone!
You're first half decent post. i remember the same incident. I remember Ali talking about it and he looked hurt. He said, "What did I ever do to her ?" And you're right about the trash talking and the white boy stuff. ( I think you finally read and understood what I was telling you in an earlier post). It's all to hype interest. And you're right about the hordes of racists out there, though their numbers are declining. All the antics will draw in casual fans to a fight they think has more meaning than it does. Why do you think Tyson bit Lewis? Do you think he was hungry, missed lunch? The biggest ppv in history, that's why. You're wrong about Calzaghe's standing. He's the second best boxer fighting at this point. The BHop fight means lots to casual fans since BHop WAS a legend, but it would do Joe's legacy a great deal more good to face Dawson, Pavli or Taylor. One of them has beaten Bernard (twice) and the other two would destroy him at this point in his career. Joe is past prime too, but only just. He doesn' have a lot of fights left and needs to defeat one or two REAL present-day American greats to cement his legacy.
oh **** i see bhop and joe about to make a mega fight and try to top oscar and floyd and hatton and floyd.cant wait for this one, im rooting for bhops but im favoring joe to win it.
why ya rooting for B hop? N yea joes gotta good chance of winning but dnt underestimate hopkins he is a trememndous talent and this fight will be a 1 for the history books
Those are B level fighters ? You are a ****ing joke !!!!! Slappy WHITE ????????????? What is this? Imagine if Calzaghe had said that he would never let a black person beat him? The world would be on fire. People would call him a racist. Rightfully so. But he would never say that. Too much class. And he is not a racist. But when BHOp says that he would never let a white person beat him. What happens --- Silence. No one criticises it. Hopkins is not stupid. Maybe he hoped that Calzaghe too would start some racist slander. That would have been really great for hopkins. Because Joe would be a haunted man like that Seinfeld guy Richards. And by being racist himself, Hopkins knew that he had nothing to loose. Because since he is a black guy people will not notice it. He knows that most people thinks that blacks cant be racist. That we have all learned from the brilliant intellectuals from the black panther party. Maybe hopkins was playing on something like this. If he did I cant believe he would prostitute himself like this. Or maybe it was his true feelings that we saw. If it was I will hope that Sharpton and Jackson will be there for him to guide and counsel him, just like they did with Richards. If they have time for him. They probably dont. I JUST LOST ALL THE RESPECT THAT I EVER HAD FOR HOPKINS. I respect him as an athlethe, but as a person he is trash. Hope that Calzaghe do not underestimate Hopkins in his preparations, and train optimally. If Calzaghe comes in prepared (as he was against Lacy and Kessler) he will beat old Hopkins racist ass.
IF HE BELIEVED THIS WAS POSSIBLE HED HAVE ALREADY DONE IT. ???So it is just that simple ??? ...hed have allready done.... what the **** do you actually mean ? You truly have no clue about Kessler:rofl atsch :think
