    Hopkins Calzaghe was a close fight imo, Calzaghe only won on my card by about 2 points so it was hardly an ass kicking.

      I didn't say he wasn't hurt, but he didn't do enough after the knockdown to win the fight. Hence why i said he is basing his whole argument for winning on that knockdown.

        There was $3m to be made - a figure Hopkins stipulated which was his highest purse. A figure he agreed to then of course doubled.

        No you cant. Calzaghe was injured in training. Hopkins never got round to training.
        Joe was injured in training the first time, I'm talking about the second time. The time where Joe said he didn't want to fight Glen and Frank Warren had to give him $100,000 for his "troubles".

          Because he agreed to the fight and then backed out. So what does that make Hopkins?

          I wish Mayweather was scared enough not to give Margarito a rematch.

He called Hopkins a racist and said a rematch would never happen. Calzaghe won a close decision over Hopkins in April. [details]
            calzaghe never makes a fight unless he knows he will win for sure.

              true P4P greats like Marciano and Robinson fought the same guys again and again if there were any questions or doubts following a win,.. in fact,.. Robinson fought some guys 4, 5, even 6 times to prove the point... if Hops is a racist then Joe should kick his 43 y/o ass again, if he can.

                  Are you feeling ok, Dirk

                  There was some doubts about Mayweathers win over Castillo first fight correct, what did Mayweather do to all of his critics and doubters after the second fight

                    Good lie. Joe was injured both times - the 2nd was a reaccurence of the same injury.

                    What was Hopkins' excuse?

                      Castillo actually had a legitimate case for winning a 12 round boxing fight. Hopkins doesnt.

                      I wish Mayweather would give people matches, let alone rematches before he retires.
