    warren wants his cardiff paydays.

    he knows he won't get as much kickback if the fight happens stateside.

    Calzaghe FINALLY accepts this fight when Hopkins is at least 5 years past his prime and now squirrley Joe acts like he's the big tough guy. He wonders why fans in the U.S. can't stand him. Joe C. is a talented fighter, but he's such a phony nothing as a person he makes us all sick.

    I don't think Hopkins is scared of Calzaghe in a boxing ring, but I do think Hopkins knows Clazaghe would badly out class him.

    Not saying he's scared, but he is smart enough to know he'd lose and he'd prefer money and a win instead of going out on a loss.

    NO.

    Hopkins isnt running scared. He uses a cane, so its more like he's hobbling scared. Calling out a 43 year old man is lame. If hopkins challenges him cool . He thinks he has something to prove. But if youre calling out an old ass man for reniging on his offer, you should quickly get over it without any fuss.

    Calzaghe is good, but he really is a **** imo.

    Hopkins is old but his performances dotn show that, dominating Tarver and beating Wright is no joke.

    No, the fact that Hopkins has triggered your gag reflex is probably whats making you sick.;)

    I have to agree with everyone who's saying the likelyhood of the match is low, but I would still like to see it.

    I believe Joe when he says that Borenard Hopkins is scared of fighting him.

    The match itself would be boring. It would represent something alot bigger though. That the American legend is inferior to the Welsh legend, the US public would never accept this and Borenard knows he would lose hence his unreasonable ever changing demands.

    I am not a ****** and that is the reason I do not "bend over now for my hero". And may I ask, which country do you hail from sir?

    The country that subsidises your economically unfit country to the tune of billions every year.:yep

    I want welsh independence, so that we can be free from all of this subsidising of our uneconomic and ungrateful neighbours.
