Re: Hopkins - Calzaghe "signed by next week"
I WAS a big B-Hop fan until those stupid comments were made.That's the only thing Hopkins can seem to do anymore is talk up a big fight.Than throw less than 30 punches a round and say "I won that fight".It's getting old and repetitive.Calzaghe will probably give something he has never had a "boxing lesson".Calzaghe will easily outbox and out punch the old and slow low punch output Hopkins into retirement once and for all.Sorry B-Hop but your all through my man.
Re: Hopkins - Calzaghe "signed by next week"
If those comments made you quit bein a Hopkins fan, then you're an idiot.

Apparantly you werent that much of a Hopkins fan
Against Wright,what was he supposed to do,tire himself out against a guy widely considered to be one of the best defensive fighters in the buisness?
He outworked Tarver by far
Re: Hopkins - Calzaghe "signed by next week"
Well I started to like him around the J.T fights but that left with the stupidity of his remarks with calzaghe

You were a little late to the party if you started to like him around the boring ass Taylor fights. Why did you like him in the first place? His all action style and golden boy image?
Re: Hopkins - Calzaghe "signed by next week"
What's up your ass buddy.I always knew he was around and I just didn't like him that much until his fight with Taylor.I mean is that ok with you my friend.

Thats like saying,"I knew Ali was around but I didnt really like him until the Spinks fight"
Re: Hopkins - Calzaghe "signed by next week"
And what would be wrong with that
Re: Hopkins - Calzaghe "signed by next week"
Anyone even considering that Joe C fighting outside of his comfort zone in Las Vegas may have an effect on his performance?

It would be naive not to consider it could affect him.
Why do you think Hopkins point-blank refused to leave his comfort zone? Home advantage is always an advantage ( ::**).
And some guys don't travel well. Look at Naz.

I think u miss the point. This was not discussing who should travel, and who should not,(that has been done to death). i was asking if u thought that it would effect Joe.
Re: Hopkins - Calzaghe "signed by next week"
I'm just saying that most English fighters have gone to America. Even if they have eventually lost
Joe would be fine I think

Unless he's demanding that the fight be at the Borgata,the Linc,Core States or the Blue Horizon you have not one ounce of understanding of the states
And being as he isnt demanding any of those venues........................
Get a clue,here's a free one,its over 2000 miles between Philadelphia and Las Vegas
Heres another, Philadelphia and New York loathe each other,the Welshman would have a better shot in NYC

yeah yeah yeah
Don't start boring me with this shit again.
Old Hopkins is an American.
Las Vegas is in America.
New York is in America.
Wales is not in America.
Old Calzaghe will be a foreigner.
A|nd that's all she wrote. Fact.
