    There's no denying that he did it before. Is he doing it again?

    I ****ing hope so! When Hopkins outclasses Calslappy, perhaps the delusional Calzaghe faithful will finally gain some much-needed perspective.

    If Calslappy somehow manages to win, I will be the first to admit I was wrong. But if I were you, I wouldn't bet the farm on this one.

    B-Hop will fight RJJ in the most over-hyped "superfight" since Mayweather/DLH, and then retire.

    Edit:

    He will beat RJJ, and there will be a very unnecessary rubber match, and then he will retire.

    Of course he is, does he want us to believe they offered JC 16 million?

    JC-B Hop won't generate enough to give either guy 16 million even with one taking a pretty big pay cut, in which we are to expect Hopkins takes the big pay cut?:rofl

    I hope it doesn't happen, JC can fight Woods as at least Woods is a top LHW who is not shot, then hopefully he can fight Dawson, two meaningful fights.

    Bernard is not ducking the fight but the people in the know, the team behind Hopkins can see that he has no chance so prefer him to stay on the (t)rusty Yankee Doodle Merry-go-round fighting shot living legends. Why should a limey who could wipe all of them out be allowed to get on too? This is the land of the free and the home of the brave afterall!

    Ha ha, what a joke.

    Hopkins always calls out Joe after fights but i have never seen Joe mention him alone without naming other boxers

    forget the media spin, calzaghe is definately ducking hopkins.

    hopkins will wind up calzaghe in the ring and when he 'comes back stronger' when hurt will counter him all day

    He ducked Joe in 2003 by over pricing himself
