Joe Calzaghe???????

[Markusdarkus]

Calzaghe said neither Hopkins nor Jones wanted to fight him, in Hopkins case we know this to be true with Jones we can only assume it to be true.

Look at the guys Roy was fighting 1998-2002 why would you take the risk in fighting Calzaghe who at the time held nothing when you could beat up on cans for the same?

Facts are Calzaghe was not known in the US HBO would not go for it and he also had nothing for Jones or Hopkins to fight for no name no marketability nothing.

That of course changed when Joe beat Lacy because he was introduced to a US audience in a big way and immediatly drew attention from both Showtime and HBO who prior had never shown a Calzaghe fight live.

As for Kessler being green the guy was a great amature won two world titles and had 39 fights, if thats green in a Chinaman.

Well if Calzaghe says he tried to make a fight with Hopkins and Jones years ago it must be true

Just like he said his next fight was the winner between Pavlik and Taylor. I can get you the video of him saying it.

He did say that but things change quickly in boxing and money talks.

Pavliks time will come.
