    I don't really see how anyone could say B Hop won that little debate thing. Who turned their back firsT? Who had to turn their back,think of the race issue and bring that up because he could not think of anything else to say? The debate/argument ended when JC brought up the losses to Taylor.B Hop was dumb founded then. And B Hop looked folish questioning Kessler when he has not fought an opponent an opponent of Kessler's quality for a while. JC won that argument EASILY.

    Just imagine, if you will, ..... it's the build up to the eagerly awaited Mayweather-Hatton superfight, everybody is pumped up and excited.

    Joe Calzaghe has just signed up for one of the final fights in his stellar career, after 20-odd defences and unifying the super-middles he wants to go out in a blaze of glory by moving up a weight to fight the bigger light-heavyweight champion, the magnificent Bernard Hopkins.

    Joe is asked, live on air, what his motivation will be ...... he pauses, considering his words and says "I would never let a black boy beat me. You can print that" He repeats it five times.

    Calzaghe's career and legacy would be immediately ruined by that one sentence. It would be front and back page news and would most likely make the TV news as well ...... Calzaghe's previous achievements and career would be absolutely crushed by that one racist comment. He would forever be remembered as a racist. Oh yes, excuses would be made, it would have been a heat of the moment thing, its because he's Welsh, it's the Italian in him etc etc - but make no mistake, that one comment would have irreparably tarnished his career and persons for ever.

    But Hopkins has already said that a white boy would never beat him. It is the sign of a weak man to make a big deal out of race, and if Hopkins really thought that he needed to pull out the race card to sell tickets for this fight, then he has little appreciation of his standing within the sport or indeed of the history of ther sport he has graced for so many years.

    The only thing that has saved Hopkins from rightful censure and ruin is the political correctness that stains both the US and Britain.

    I admire Hopkins for his brilliant achievements and accomplishments inside and outside the ring ....... but my admiration for him as a human being has now sunk to a considerable low.

    I like Joe & all...but that aint Joe.

    Joe don't act like that & it don't suit him for S***.

    He didn't know how to answer or what to say when Hopkins ripped into Kessler being soft opposition. He just fumbled around & grasped for a retort. There was none.
    joe does his talking in the ring. if and when he fights hopkins he wins.
    Joe did mess up at 1 point and stuttered his words but Hopkins saying Kessler aint in his league probably annoyed Joe so thats why he said Taylor beat him twice . Hopkins then got angry and got racist . If Joe said he 'd never lose to a ni**a then there would be outrage but its okay for whites to be insulted ?

    Hopkins didn't turn his back, he got Joe stuttering ans spluttering and backtracking then weighed in with his menacing verbal race assualt and then turned and left leaving Joe mumbling to thin air.

    He spoke with authority and menace and left at exactly the right moment having struck the first pre fight blow.

    I agree GAME and due to this all my respect for Hopkins has gone and I really want him to get KNFO by Joe badly.

    right sure did.... Nard is the one rumbling and stumbling.. Joe has eye contact the whole time and stood his ground with good posture... He wasnt weaving around and turning his back like Nard. Joe seemed quite amused by the douche bag

    lol the strongman competition is for athletes who have either failed to achieve success elsewhere or who have come to the ends of their own sporting or bodybuilding careers.

    All the gifted black athletes are earning money in highly paid professional sports

    Sorry Bilbo but you are kind of pissing me off now. You are discrediting white people all the time when you are white yourself, and making every little excuse for Hopkins comment. And then going completely off the subject about things that happened hundreds of years ago basically implying its white people's fault for Hopkins racist comment. I have black friends and im not a racist at all but your comments are starting to become irritating.

    I remember leading up to the Hopkins-Trinidad fight in one of the press conferences when Hopkins said to Trinidad he would serve him his last supper and then put rice and beans on the table right in front of him, so Hopkins playing the race card is nothing new, I think he simply does what he can to get under an opponent's skin. Not making an excuse because bringing race into sports is never right, but he's done similar things in the past.

    Yeah I know mate. Joe just stood there talking while Hopkins was constantly trying to look pre-occupied while his tiny brain thought up an answer......and look what he came out with
