Golden Boy Pro Offers Calzaghe 16mil For Hopkins in USA

[AntonTheMeh]

I read that was just wishful thinking but that the fight would more then likely take place in vegas. There's no doubt this fight will happen. It will take a little tug a war with money issues but defenitely will happen and in the usa. Calzaghe needs hopkins and gbp money more the hopkins and gbp need him

i think msg would be better.i think that would be more significant for both fighters given it's history.not hatin on vegas but,if joe comes here it'll probably take place at the garden

alot but cmon, you dont think there are brits living in the US? did you not see the hatton/castillo fight?

$16 million sounds like bull****. A more realistic offer would be around $8million.

If this is true theres no way Joe can turn it down.
Even Warren should be satisfied for 2 million up front plus 15% of Joe's earnings.

No way in hell this is true.

it's about time some **** gets poppin for this fight, I want to watch this fight yo I'll be picking Joe but you never know what to expect from the "head" of the Light Heavyweight division, I'll elaborate a little more on who I think will win once this fight is finalized, anything up until then is just imaginary.. Joe should accept the money though because all he would have to do is talk to Warren and let him know that regardless he will be paid, that this fight can only do GOOD for him because it's not so much the money FOR the Hopkins fight it's the money he will make AFTER the fight, by beating Bernard he will MAX out his stock, he will be the biggest fighter in them divisions and it will perfectly set up a Pavlik-Taylor II winner or a Trinidad-Jones Jr winner fight which will just purely cement Joe..

those are the 3 fights that he needs so if Warren really loves Joe he will fall back, accept his 2 Million and allow Joe to make the kind of money that his Grand children's Grand children will spend, not only that but it will definitely make Joe a GOOD run for #1 pound for pound.. that kind of glory isn't worth passing up due to money thats going to someone who ain't even fighting, Warren needs to be there for Joe like Joe has been there for him and let him bloom, this is a good opportunity for Joe C.. 100

They're going to hype this fight like it's Oscar-Mayweather if it goes down. If they want to pull off Yankee Stadium they'll have to promote the **** out of this fight. They'll use every possible story: The potential fight from years ago, Joe beating Hopkins' defense record, calling each other out, Hopkins' age, Joe's undefeated record, Joe never fighting in the US, etc.
