    Glen Johnson should be calling out Hopkins in every interview he gets...

    Johnson got outclassed and schooled by Tarver in the rematch. He is very overrated on this board.

    the Kessler/Calzaghe winner should be the only fight at this point in his carrer that he takes.

    Actually Jones was up big in the early rounds. It was after Jones hurt his hand that Hopkins got the better of it. Hopkins won the last 6 rounds 4 rounds to 2 rounds.

    He won't be fighting until next year, so he'll no doubt be looking at the Calzaghe/Kessler and possibly the Jones/Trinidad fight. Most likely if Calzaghe wins then look for Calzaghe/Hopkins in 2008. If Calzaghe somehow loses then the Jones fight is on the table.

    Tarver flurried and ran against an unmotivated Johnson in the rematch...Johnson looked like he took the night off...

    I actually thought Tarver won both fights. Johnson impressed the judges with his aggression and activity in the 1st fight but Tarver was more effective. And in the 2nd fight, Tarver dominated.

    Retire so no one has to watch him fight anymore or listen to his ******ed speech problem and whining after a fight.
