Kessler is better than Hopkins himself let alone any of the people he defeated (which were mostly Welterweights anyway) so stfu. I think we will only realise how good Calzaghe's win over Kessler is in a few years time anyway.
Hopkins Isnt Racist

Maybe it was hot in there, it happens.
I find it hard to believe Hopkins is scared, unless he understands that his declined ability isn't good going up against a fighter {Joe} that seemingly is still in his prime.

I would take a prime Hopkins over Kessler and over Taylor. Just remember the age when Hopkins was beating those fighters and when he lost to Taylor.
Joe better win this or it will hurt his legacy.Last edited by Benny Leonard; 12-28-2007, 02:22 PM.Comment

HAHAHA WHAT A ****ING ******ED POST.....YOU CAN'T BE THAT ****ING DUMB FOR REAL CAN YOU.F*** the Brits, F*** Ricky Hatton, & F*** Calzaghe right in his f'n ear!!! All the guys Joe fought, all the yaers he's held his bull**** belt, he's still a NOBODY outside of the UK, you know it & so do I. So if ya'll can actually be REAL & base your opinions off of FACT, Joe still got a long way to go before he DESERVES to fight Hopkins, but Hopkins may just cash in on the UK Cash Cow now, just to shut ya'll the F*** Up!!! Can ya'll Dig Dat?!?

I guess a lot of black fighters are getting laughed at and made fun of these days because it's now very common to see a white fighter owning a black fighter...white fighters have stepped up bigtime and there are tons of white champions in various weight classes.Hes Just Hyping Things Up The Hood Way Hes From The Hood So Am I And This Is How It Goes....you Get Laughed At If You Get Whooped By A White Guy...........i Dont Know Why But Its Just That Way......its Been That Way Forever!!!so Dont Say Hes Racist It Just The Code Of The Hood.....I HOPE THIS THREAD CAUSE NO PROBLEMS
Hopkins won't be able to show his face in the hood again after he gets his ass whooped by the white man Calzaghe.Comment

Hopkins dissing Calzaghe fine, he's selling the fight. But Hopkins dissed the whole white race. I'm just curious why Hopkins skipped 168 altogether to fight that overrated clubfighter Tarver anyway.Comment

B-Hop just let the situation get the best of him! B-Hop felt DISRESPECTED when Joe asked him could he beat Kessler! Then Joe touched a nerve in B-Hop when he reminded him he lost to Jermain Taylor twice! Hopkins lost his cool and said what he said! In his own sick twisted way, Hopkins was just trying to psych himself up and Joe Out! When Bernard is training for this fight, this is what he would be sayin to himself, even if he had never said it out loud! Like dude said, to lose to white boy is something to be ashamed of coming from prodominately black neighborhoods! Why? I don't know! Also take into consideration, that Bernard was born and raised in the Jim Crowe days! He comes from Philadelphia where we have witnessed many injustices against blacks because of their skin color! Mumia Abu Jamal, The Bombing of the MOVE headquarters, the humiliation of the Panthers in North Philadelphia by then rascist mayor Frank Rizzo! So to say Bernard is a rascist is so uncool!
He's just a PRODUCT of the environment he was raised in! Those comments he made were uncalled for and so inappropiate!
Bernard should apologize and be held accountable for those ignorant remarks!
At the same time, we as TRUE fans of the sport shouldn't be so quick to throw somebody like Bernard Hopkins to the fire for words said in the HEAT of the moment.

Hopkins has been skipping his whole career fighting smaller men in a Talentless division.
The best he faced his own size...he lost.
He could have been fighting at 168 or 175 for the last 20 years.
We know the reason why he didn't.Comment
