    Calzaghe Blasts Hopkins, Eyes Kelly Pavlik

    In a recent interview with Setanta Sports, undisputed super middleweight champion Joe Calzaghe took aim at Bernard Hopkins, saying the light heavyweight champ has not achieved anything more than him. The two will collide on April 19 in Las Vegas. Calzaghe broke down the record of Hopkins and said he was far from impressed with the champion's resume. [details]

    It's a shame he couldn't be bothered to try out a prime Hopkins or prime Jones.

          Shame Bernard ran away from a fight with Joe 6 years ago.

              um, Hops pulled out of negotiations with Joe YEARS ago.. when the deal was being finalized, HOPS asked for double then what was being discussed.


              know your role son.

                And how do you work that one out? Calzaghe wasn't known in America and wouldn't go to America, he just sat on his ass next to his dad for 10 years bitching and complaining about 'lack of recognition' (in Britain!) and his bad hand, fighting Tocker Pudwill once a year in front of 1,700 Welshmen at Cardiff Ice Rink

                  This sounds like mind games from Calzaghe.

                    I try to walk the line of neutrality and I never count Hopkins out completely, but yes, what you said is more than likely what will happen. Only thing that bothers me is a biased referee.
