Hopkins turned down $4 million. Won't fight Mikkel Kessler!

[Enemy/Friend]

Calzaghe can't draw flies to ****.

If Joe does,he could swat them away with his windmill like punches. To be honest tho a fly swatter would do more damage...

I will take a page from dagums book....

The Euro is doing quite well isn't it?

Just ****ing ridiculous ain't it?

It's a commonly known fact to anyone that the only place where boxers can get as much money and revenue (read not monkey tickets sold for 3 bucks to poor people) is Vegas. the only place that even COMPARES is Germany with the Klit brothers.

That's it.

So shut the **** up about Copenhagen, Manilla, or the ****ing Wembley stadium (so sick of this one- when did this become some great boxing venue, how many huge fights have been there in the modern era? LIKE 2 or THREE AT BEST).

Jesus Christ the anti US **** on this page is pathetic.

Look i'm not even hating on this guy, it's just a fact. The mother****er took forever to get popular even in the UK.

Note to racists and anti US ******s: I'm not implying by talking about Calzaghe, ANYTHING about Bernard Hopkins. So shut the **** up.

"I propose to my handlers and negotiators. Joe and I will go where the money is at. I believe right now that European money is stronger than the dollar. I would fight anywhere. No problem. I suggested that, as a matter of fact."

Fighting in Europe isn't the problem, it's just that Kessler is not an option for Hopkins at this point.

[Abstraction]

I don't understand why would hopkins want to fight Kessler?

a) Kessler is very little in boxing, and will probably get owned by Hopkins.

Hopkins is 43, and is probably looking for one last bout before he retires. Going for Dawson and Kessler is just ******.

He would probably beat them both, but the only thing that makes sense now for Hopkins is

Hopkins-Calzaghe 2,
Hopkins-RJJ 2,
Hopkins-Taylor 3

Who has Kessler beaten again? refresh my memory?

Why won't he come to America?

Can you please Alphabetize the excuses, I'm sure it's a long list....

As Hopkins said.

"Kessler? Who is Kessler? Are you Serious !?"

lol, saying it like it is.

no offense to Kessler, but he has had no big wins in his career, and is nothing special.

[BattlingNelson]

What the **** does this mean? Were you saying this nonsense when Kessler FLATLY turned down Dawson?

And what about your claim that Dawson turned down a catchweight offer? Still holding on to that BULL****?


It's already been explained...COUNTLESS times. And if you don't get it, take a look at some of Kessler's MONSTER paychecks.

Clown.

Yes I am. Team Kessler made a catchweight offer. Why wont you accept it?

I havent seen an explanation as to how such a fight makes more in the US as opposed to Denmark. But since it has been explained COUNTLESS times it shouldn't be a problem for you you ****-for-brains.

[RichCCFC]

No it's not. For starters, Mercado is fighting at home. The crowd were not against him. And he was acclimatized to the conditions because he lives in Equador. Not the same. At all.

As far as Kessler facing hostile crowds, when was that?

I am a fan of Mikkel Kessler, don't get me wrong, but I disagree with what you're saying.

Only 50,000 people in Wales, hostile enough?
