It says it will be in november,was gonna go to Vegas for Hatton fight but i might change my mind and go to New York now.

.....hands hurt already ?? I'd rather wait six months then have calzaghe give excuses of why he lost. Injuries happen i guess, but brittle hands in training just don't sound too good.

Isn't that the same injury he had when he was supposed to fight Glen Johnson?

He has always had hand problems thats the reason he doesnt do alot of sparring before fights.

Hand injury then bad back vs Johnson he pulled out 2 or 3 times then Johnson got fed up of him. Ive read on fightnews its his wrist he has sprained it.

That's a new one on me

Whatever you think of JC do you honestly think Lacy (at the time) Kessler and Hopkins were fights that somebody ducking Glen Jonson would take

I don't think Calzaghe was ducking Johnson, and I don't think that's what Tysonbruno was saying. He was saying Johnson got tired of waiting (and not earning) for Calzaghe to be healthy so he moved on to fight others. I really wish that match could have been made, would have been a wildly entertaining fight, but it just wasn't in the cards.

Roy Jones Jr. fought Hopkins with a broken hand......and won.

Jeah but if he had lost you would have never heard the end of it, so I'd much rather a fighter pull out if he's hurt than use that as an excuse after the fight.

Cetainly did and it was a much better version of Bernard than Calzaghe struggled with. But Roys not that man anymore either, still think he will win though.

That's very debatable - neither were prime versions. The B-Hop Calzaghe beat was coming off 2 of his biggest wins.
