of fighting all his professional fights in Great Britain? Why can't he come over to the USA to fight Hopkins? Isn't Hopkins the more accomplished of the two?

Yes Hopkins is the more accomplished of the 2. But Calzaghe's pimp (Frank Warren) rather Joe stay at home. And Joe won't question his pimp.
Don't worry.
Hopkins POINT-BLANK REFUSES to fight Calzaghe in Great Britain.
I'm not saying he's scared to leave home but he POINT-BLANK REFUSES to fight Calzaghe in Great Britain.
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
Why do all of the big fights have to be in the USA? Champion of the WORLD means just that. Not just champion of the USA. These Yanks are so full of themselves it's pathetic. The same people make a world series every year which does not include the world at all. Get over yourselves Americans. If anything, they should have the fight in some poor country like Ali/Foreman did. Peter Manfredo Jr. had the balls to travel abroad and Hopkins doesn't? What is up with that?

er, why should hopkins have the 'privilege' of fighting all his fights in the US?
oh, he's American. i get it.
Up to this point, Calzaghe has had too much of a privileged boxing career. All his fights he had home court advantage, it is time he step off of his pedal stool, roll up his sleeves and do some real work.
all good points but manfredo didnt have a choice it was the Uk or nowhere, surely you dont think calzaghe shoulda travelled to fight the contender runner up.
And another thing, everyone knows Hopkins could not attract flies even if he covered himself with shiet and sprinkled powdered sugar all over himself. Calzaghe can fill a Stadium. Can B-Hop do that? I don't think so. The only reason Calzaghe will come to the U.S would be for the money but American money is on the decline and dropping fast. Euro's have more weight than that cheap whore known as the Dollar.Originally Posted by Bilbo
why does all of Calzaghe's big fights have to be in the UK? I could understand Kessler and Lacy going to the UK to try to dethrone him, but if Calzaghe wants to dethrone Hopkins he should come here. Simple honor and respect demands in.Originally Posted by Cotto_Is_4_Real
Ain't that like saying Audley Harrison had the balls to come to the US but not Calzaghe?Originally Posted by Cotto_Is_4_Real
On seats...
Calzaghe draws 50,000 in UK.
Hopkins draws 2,000 in US.
As a promoter I wonder where I would hold the fight.
Hmmm... let me think...
At the end of the day, this is going to show us who wants it more. I think Calzaghe will come just this once to the U.S.Originally Posted by BigMix27
Calzaghe should ask for a compromise which states that if Calzaghe comes to America, he will get the much larger purse because B-Hop is not only being a biatch about the location, he is also playing hardball regarding the money situation. I say make this fight in a neutral country and winner takes the bigger purse. These two old phuk heads are acting like kids. No wonder they never grow old because neither one has grown up.
Nah, Audley couldn't get one man and his dog to watch him anymore, so he thought he'd go con you lot.Originally Posted by Violent Demise

Sounds like you got it bang on. But whilst we're at it....Hopkins has left the US twice, for opponents with a combined record of (26-10-1), whilst Calzaghe's two opponents outside of the British isles have a combined record of (74-3-0).Originally Posted by Cotto_Is_4_Real
