    The interviewer hasn't built up enough credibility to earn the title "Respected".

    Deeply rooted in the sport, those two puppets? When Hopkins asked the interviewer about Calzaghe's opponents, he started laughing... That is the childish ****, not Decebal's. Dec is right, those guys were not doing journalism. I want to know what Boxing 4 Real and Boxing info have to say about this one.

    No need to be hater. That was a quality interview. It was a whole lot better than the crap interviews Calzaghe has been doing.

    I laugh at Calzaghe's interviews all the time; they're a joke.

    Eubank is nowhere near Hopkins in terms of accomplishments as a fighter. I liked Eubank, but he isn't even close.

    He never was an undisputed champ (or even close to it) of one division, let alone two. He has a win over Nigel Benn, that's it...

    Exactly...he says a lot of rubbish...and he knows it...does Bernard know he is talking rubbish himself? That interviewer definitely took it all seriously.;)

    "When we take a look back at who he's fought, he's mentioned being a sheltered fighter fighting in Europe, there are not too many warm bodies in his resumé, sure he beat Mikkel Kessler but Kessler was another protected fighter in Europe, he beat Chris Eubank originally to win the WBO SMW title, fought Charles Brewer, Jeff Lacy MAYBE but we're sure what he would have done to Lacy, is Joe Calzaghe ready to fight 12 rounds with BHOP?" - What kind of a question is this? How can Bernard know if Calzaghe is ready or not based on Jason Edelson's "analysis" of Calzaghe's resumé? This is not an unbiased question or else why did Hopkins fired back at the Setanta interviewer when he was asked how would he beat Calzaghe - Hopkins called him a smart ass and said that he was nice to leave him off the hook.

    If Benn at 160 had faced Tito Trinidad he would have decapitated him.

    Its dumb because there are just as many world champs and top ten fighters in each weight division fighting out of Europe these days as there are fighting in America,also there have been just as many overhyped Americans that have lost in Europe as the other way round.The funniest one tho is he is trying to say Kessler and Eubanks at 168 at good but not even close to DeLaHoya,Trinidad at middle-weight,its just embaressing.

    No wonder Hopkins acts like a diva if he forgets to wear socks when he has people like this guy around him interviewing him,that wasn't an interview it was a motivation/confidence speech.
