    You just proved yourself wrong.
    "a clause of that deal would be that he would NOT fight Mayweather".

      Right the deal stated it would be a promotional deal for him to fight in the US to set up a fight with Floyd.
      How are you not getting this?

            I posted you an article that proves that the past his prime Roy Jones was in fact willing to come to Joe's backyard.

            Now you post me an article where Joe Calzaghe wanted a fight against Roy when he was the P4p best. All Joe was doing is mention Roy after every fight but he never persued a fight when Roy was in his prime.

            If you can disprove that........post an article or forget about it.

              He was talking about Roy Jones in those days but he never made any serious effort to get a Roy Jones fight. Those are facts unless somebody can find an article where Calzaghe called out Jones when he was the LHW Undisputed champion.

              Fast forward to the time after Roy lost 3 fights in a row......now Jones does want a fight against Calzaghe because Joe defeated a hot prospect in Jeff Lacy. I showed an article where Roy said he was willing to fight him at 168lb, in Whales with the winner getting 60% of the purse. Those are all advantages in Joe's favor and no deal has been reached because Joe isn't interested in a Old washed up Roy anymore.

              WHAT ALL THIS COMES DOWN TO IS THAT JOE ISN'T WILLING TO COME TO AMERICA TO FIGHT ANY TOP FIGHTERS. HE EXPECTS THEM ALL TO COME TO WHALES LIKE KESSLER IS DOING NOW. NOT GONNA HAPPEN. HOPKINS ISN'T GONNA DO IT.
              is joe gonna fill seats in ameirca? no, but whoever he fights may do. now do you see any ameircanscalling out joe from before? not really. joe can fill seats in the uk. he can make money here which he has done. we both dont have any 1st hand evidence, but im sure that roy would not have wnated to fight joe unless he had a handsome sum.

              and abotu kessler. frankw arren took the deal of fighting in denmark for 5 millino dollars which they offered. frank was sayin he called their bluff. then palles couldnt give it so therefore frank had to do a deal with what he offered previously. so shut the **** up i now know you know **** all about it.

                  Is Joe getting paid as much as Hopkins? No...Hopkins doesn't have to sell out and he still gets paid more. Which is why Joe is still interested in a 43 year old Hopkins. THE MONEY......he can't get as much money fighting Manfredo or any Espn's Contender in front of 60,000 UK fans as he can get against Hopkins in America in front of 20,000 fans.

                  Facts......Hopkins has earned more money then Joe. Roy definetely did.

                      That's the same article you posted before. It's from 2006 and Frank Warren is just running his mouth years later.

                      Post me an article before 2003 when Roy was still the P4P king. Post me an article where Joe called Roy out before he lost to Tarver.

                      Thanks in advance.
