      So the link is pathetic because of Joe's fans? You make absolutely zero sense.

          Time yet.
          Still waiting for the link which shows Joe "never mentioning Johnson again".

          I wont count on it.

                Yes everyone fears the conquerer of Tocker Pudwill. What a badass.

                Also Don King has never ****ed over a fighter. Ever. Ever. Ever.

He had ample time to jump in the Tarver/Johnson round robin. Glen was red hot and at least good for a one time big pay day. Anybody want to take a crack at conjuring up an explanation for this? If you're going to claim to be the best, you have to make fights happen. No excuses. I'd have respected the Cazaghe camp more if the reason they initially didn't want Johnson was for money reasons like stated in that article instead of claiming injury twice and Glen is paid 100 grand by Warren for his trouble.


                  Well it might have something to do with the tv but i doubt it since Johnson was really hot at that time, No-one wanted to fight johnson at that time though not Tarver..Not RJJ so i dont really blame warren if he didnt want to do it at the time.

                    Not so fast. If Calzaghe really wanted to tangle with Glen he had opportunites right after Jones and Tarver. Jeff Lacy was not a bigger fight. Ridiculous.

                    Joe claims it was also money that was not pushing him to fight Johnson. Best chance to get paid was after Glen beat Roy and Tarver.

                    Quack!

                    As much **** as Hopkins gets for what happened in '02 this is as bad or worse, yet in Joe fans world it's perfectly acceptable.

                      Yeah poor Hoppy. He was bullied by Don King into agreeing the fight. Brain washed. Completely helpless.
