Joe Calzaghe on his DVD I'm watching now :"This is where old B-Hop wanted to fight, at the end of the day he wanted to fight at Light Heavyweight, he wanted to fight in Vegas, he wanted to fight at this date, so I gave him everything he wanted because you have to bare in mind he turned this fight down 7 years ago, he agreed to it and then turned it down last minute. You know, everything is in his favour, he's got his judges, his ref but he's still gonna get his ass kicked."
I guess I am in the 0.01% then.
Hopkins is an intelligent guy. I'm not saying that Dawson will beat him, but he will give Nard a much harder night than Pavlik did. I want Calzaghe to fight Chad, but if that doesn't happen then I hope Hopkins does.
You always have to fight me don't you!?!
Hopkins didnt want to fight. If it werent for the round Hopkins stole for milking a low blow, it wouldnt have been so close.
Those who had Hopkins winning are the ones who thought he won round 7 by landing one clean punch.
heheh. Now you'll never forget.
Yes, even after I die, my children will know.
My ancestors are also aware.

I'm getting the cold douche chills from reading the fanatical fanboy faggatry posted on this thread. Brrr....
Yes OK. Three of you have said the same thing!
I get it. Warren holds the rights. Makes sense now.
Cheers. ;)

A bad typo on my account. Didn't read the statement properly. Even though am sure Joe said he kicked his ass post fight as well but meh.
I should have got an education in Wales.
Wow. That seems really stupid. I wonder why none was included?
Joe has ongoing legal dispute with Frank Warren, who just happens to own the rights to most of Joe's pro fights. The only one that Joe would have been able to show was the Jones fight, but I'm guessing that the fight came after the deadline for the DVD.

A small note to the (mainly American) people who are bitching that Joe didn't kick Hopkins ass at all:
LEARN TO READ, SO NEXT TIME YOU DON'T LOOK LIKE AN UNEDUCATED, BITTER ASSHOLE!
DVD was quite good, BTW.
Joe won the fight by about 2or3 rounds, but you've gotta give b-hop some credit - nobody looks good against him. Joe admiited he couldn't get up for this fight, unlike RJJ.
I've just been reading the latest RING mag, and it says B-hop may be looking at one more fight. CHAD DAWSON is favourite. That'd be a 50:50 fight IMO.
I reckon 99.9% of Calzaghe fans will want Hopkins to beat Dawson, just so it makes Joe's win over Hopkins look better.
Holla if ya hear me!

I agreed with everything Joe said apart from the ''I kicked his ass'' bit. That isn't even close to being true.
He must get that OTT shit from his old man lol.
Wow. That seems really stupid. I wonder why none was included?
There are no footage because all the rights to his fights prior to his split with Warren belong to Sports Network. That is why he cannot have any footage on the DVD. He has recently employed an image rights specialist to help him. Boxers are one of the last sports men to catch up on the lucrative potential of image rights. Footballers like Beckham have being taking advantage of this for years.
The best thing about Calzaghe/Hopkins was the two fools sitting at home thinking "That guy looks awful, I'm sure I can beat him."
Poor Kelly and Roy should have realised Joe and Bernard always make opponents look bad, even when fighting each other.
Wow. That seems really stupid. I wonder why none was included?
Frank Warren's 'Sports Network' holds the rights to the fight coverage I believe. To release the footage would mean negotiating with Warren (as well as Setanta and HBO I presume; difficult because there is animosity or no coin for them).
I can't think of any reason for it, I spent most the time I was watching it wondering why not, the only thing I thought of it that apparntly Setanta played it on TV before it was released, so maybe they didn't have permission or some shit?
I dunno..
Yeah, I'm not sure, T. :?!:
It's like having a DVD of a band's career, only without any music on it!

He embarassed Hopkins at the end of the day, Hopkins knew that and crying to the ref to disqualify Joe did not help his case either.
You got to be blind(or american) to think Joe just barely beat Hopkins, he won quite a stretch and made Hopkins look like a boat crash survivor looking for salvation.
You're doing a little too much.
Calzaghe clearly won, but nothing like you're describing.
