    I should also add that clearly Hops pulled out for money, not because he ducked anyone. That word gets tossed around a lot - depending on whom it benefits. Like, Calzaghe "ducked" Glen Johnson.
    Hops backed out when he examined the contract. Don King was taking WAY more than Hops originally thought and also going to be holding on to him as a fighter longer. Typical Don King contract.

    Typical twisting of what really happened. Hopkins has always had a problem when he feels like he is getting ****ed over.

    Calzaghe had done very little at that point to scare anyone away.

      I dont live in Europe. I live in Britain and we didnt even know who the **** was. It was the Yanks that sent him over under that guise. So you tell me, since you're a Yank right? Canada, America - same thing

                WOW!

                So if fighter A and figher B are at negotiation table and fighter A doesnt want to fight fighter B because the terms in the contract doesnt satisfy his wants he is automatically ducking fighter B?

                  This is the kind of nonsense statement that makes this website a comedy act.
