    I still have my doubts, but by the way he is speaking it does very much sound like this will be his last ever fight.

    Will you be sad when Joe goes?

    I wouldn't say sad, but yea it will be a shame to see him go from the British boxing scene. He has brought a few interesting match ups of late - from Lacy onwards. I very much enjoyed the Kessler fight, and the Hopkins one too (I think I'm one a few though). The Calzaghe pre Lacy - WBO fest - wouldn't be sad to see that go.

    Even the Woodhall, Brewer, Mitchell fights were pretty good. There was a lot of crap in there as well though.

    Yeah as with a lot of boxers.
    Really with promoters they have to make a career and living so we dont always get what we want as fight fans.

    He should have fought a B-Hop 10 year ago then.

    Bhops was happy fighting at MW and when Taylor whooped his ass he leap-frogged SMW to jump up to LHW. IT was only when JC pissed all over Lacy that the americans began to take any notice.

    I know the facts but it does not change what would have happened if JC had ever fought him then.
