While new and more exciting fight leagues sprout up across the U.S., some of our best boxers can't just resist going ******. I guess Oscar forgot to deliver class along with that fat paycheck. From Yahoo Sport News Today:
"The American pledged to defy the age barrier once more when he clashes with Calzaghe - and was also i n a defiant mood about the controversy he sparked when the pair met for the first time in December.
Standing toe-to-toe with the Welshman at the weigh-in for the Floyd Mayweather Junior-Ricky Hatton fight, he claimed: "I'll never lose to a white boy."
Hopkins was careful not to repeat the words when he was quizzed Thursday but maintained: "I said what I said, people that know me know me. It doesn't matter what I regret or what I don't regret. I said what I said and come April 19 it's up to Joe to prove me a liar. That's the best way to stop talkers. "
