No, that's not at all what I said, they MAY have favoured him because of the dickhead comment Hopkins made. It's as good an argument as 'Calzaghe's British so it was all against him', because Calzaghe had enough of Warren's money behind him to ensure he wasn't going to get shafted. In fact, I'd like to hear of a single Brit other than Lewis against Holyfield who has been screwed by the judges against a US fighter in America in recent years, maybe I'm missing someone
Right.. but thats like saying Adalaide Byrd (the black American judge) MAY have favoured Hopkins the black American.. considering the other two judges and the MAJORITY of people that watched the fight scored it for Calzaghe.

Warren has more clout than Golden Boy?
Jesus, I DIDN'T say they favoured Joe because he & they are white, I said it's because of the comment that Hopkins made. Let's put it this way if Alan Minter said what he did about Hagler today, who would you put your money on if it went to the cards regardless of the colour of the judges?

And no I didn't say Warren has more clout than GBP, but he has enough to ensure his fighter probably won't get screwed over.
