    Do we really need to see Bernard Hopkins V Joe Calzaghe? It will be PPV and hyped to death. Hot headed scenes at the press conference and trash talk in the papers.
    The actual fight will be a complete stinker.

    Hahahaha yes, Calzaghe has better defense than Hopkins, better balance than Hopkins, better STRAIGHT punching than Hopkins, etc.

    Why bring Hatton into this??? Hatton tried to put great fighters on his resume. Hatton went to fight the best (even at a weight class above his natural). Hatton is a true champion and a good fighter. Calzaghe could learn from him.

    isn't that what joe is trying to do now? or is this your first hint that 'nard was 'shot and old' when joe beats him?

    My point was American fighters are allowed to cheat, yet there are 506 threads on Ricky Hatton's holding

    Straight punches? Bernard barely throws a punch anymore, but you are obviously the optimistic sort

    joe loses whoever he fights next, some will never be happy.

    hopkins - too old
    dawson - too green, who'd he beat? etc.

    This fight was supposed to be made 6 years ago, it is well known the fight was agreed until Hopkins decided to ask for more money. Twice as much infact

    Stop burying your head in the sand. You talk about fighting these American Gods, but one of them is scared shitless, and you keep ignoring it

    I will not give credit to this news, bc it's probably not true. As it wasn't the previous news about 9m or so.

    If Hopkins offers 45% to Joe this is a donne deal, it's a mega fight.

    Floyd beating Hatton was .. well, to say the least, predictable. Just as much as Calzaghe beating Hopkins is.
