You know what? I don't think Joe was nervous or scared, but I think he was half-expecting BHOP to lash out at him and was preparing to smack him in the face. BHOP's body language was quite threatening.
Calzaghe doesn't need humor. He has reality on his side. And being loud has nothing to do with winning the argument, a lesson that you would do well to learn.
What makes you think Haye would lose to Wlodarzcyzk and Maccarenelli? and Marco Huck? Haye would definitely be the favorite in all those fights. I see Mac as the toughest fight but I still favor Haye to beat him. Wlod would most likely get KO'D against Haye. Haye is just too good and too strong. I have never seen this Marco Huck dude fight before so I don't know anything about him. And you also think Dawson would lose to Dianouc, Erdei and Woods??? Is this wishful thinking or do you really believe this?
no matter how you cut it, slice it and dice it... manipulate the numbers to your hearts content, it just doesn't add up. Hopkins is the legend, Calzaghe is just a champion. Prime for prime, Hopkins would kick Calzaghes's ass from here to eternity, I just want to see how bad! Let this fight happen.
I don't think Hopkins really cares what color or ethnicity of guys are on top, as long as they're with Golden Snaggle Tooth Promotions. He just doesn't care if he's classless when it comes to promoting fights or launching psychological warfare. For crying out loud, the guy threw the PR Flag to the floor, in Puerto Rico!
Hopkins wants the Calzaghe fight more than Calzaghe wants it and the proof is out there, just search and read. I'm not saying that Hopkins will win it 100%, it definitely will be a tough fight and I won't be surprised if Calzaghe wins it but Hopkins WANTS this fight and he's the one mentioning it more than Calzaghe even though Calzaghe was the one mentioning it after the Lacy fight but stopped all of a sudden.
STFU and stop racialising the fight. Its people like you that demean boxing by reducing it to racial politics. There are plenty of good white fighters and black fighters. There are overall more great black than whites so if you have some hangup about blacks dominating boxing is the wrong sport for you.
Likely to be a one sided beatdown. Hopkins could never hang with Calzaghe at any point in his career. He made his name beating welterweights (Delahoya and Trinidad) and mediorce middleweights - Joppy, Allen, etc. At his current age, it is going to look like the Lacy beatdown or worse.
The lacy beat down wow !! How much of Hopkins have you actually watched to come to a conclusion like this ??
