Calzaghe does'nt need Hopkins

[medium-deek]

hops is not backing down. he said after the winky fight that he wanted jc but over here not there. he said he will fight him in yankee stadium lol. hops wont back down he wants this fight aswell.

He did indeed. But I get the feeling he wont accept giving Joe a fair split of the purse. And that is the key. Joe only wants the big money fights.

It was a great fight but i cant say that Joe has fought a true champion who has been on his game for years... People like to use the Eubanks fight as an example but Eubanks fought Joe at an old 31 and only had two more fighst after in which he lost both... I give all the credit in the world to Joe but he has to fight WORLD CLASS OPPOSITION not WORLD CLASS POTENTIAL! Kessler can be great but he would have to fight great fighters he hasnt thus far.. Jeff Lacy was a good win for Joe but who was Jeff Lacy and who had he beat... Hopkins is 42 Joe is 38-39 there both well past there prime but still WORLD CLASS FIGHTERS even Roy meets this criteria, until Joe beats a WORLD CLASS FIGHTER who has had a belt for more then 6 years and has beat other WORLD CLASS FIGHTERS then Joe is just another Joe to me!
