    What a crock of ****!! A fight against the winner of Tito - RJJ because it will mean more for his legacy. Go on Borenard, pick on a couple of washed-up fighters for a change. Didn't he call out JC after the he stunk the joint out fighting Winky (another smaller guy). B-hop has made a career of picking on smaller fighters. BS, Hopkins & his camp know that they will be on the end of a one sided ass-whooping on home soil and are looking to avoid the humiliation. You watch Hopkins & his team start making ridiculous demands on the purse split and then blame Calzaghe for the fight not taking place. Living legend:patsch

    I, for one, will be very upset if Hopkins fights someone other than Calzaghe. He called him out, now he has to follow through.

    Don't worry there going to fight. There just playing mind games with each other just to get more money. Frank Warren did the same thing talking about fighting Kelly Pavlik. So calm down they will fight.

    i have no desire to see Bhop fight Calzaghe at this stage, he's 42. Calzaghe winning proves nothing. I'd rather see Jones - Hopkins II, it's the only fight i want to see Bhop fight unless he retires.

    Wouldn't it be better for Joe to fight Woods as a tune up anyways since the fight will most likely take place at lt heavy ??

    Yep. Bernard and Mike Tyson give the best interviews, depending what I'm looking for on a particular day.

    Both guys are top 5 P4P, and with all the back and forth jabber between Hop and Calz. it's gotta happen next. No excuses. If the fight does not happen soon one or both will be tainted.
