Bernard has never been one to "only take fights he can win". His legacy is set in stone and he doesn't fear a loss. He definately isn't afraid of Dawson. Calzaghe isn't running though. He's said over and over and over the last 2 years that in order for him to be at his best, he has to have some doubt wether he can beat the guy. He's already beaten Bernard. If you're a conquerer in search of new lands, you don't lead your soldiers against the people you've already defeated.

wow, this just proves how dumb and gullible you really are. Someone on this site posted an article on Michael Marley's website which clearly stated it was SATIRE and not real. Let me repeat: it was a fake article intended to get readers to laugh.

Now you can say it was wrong of hopkins to have said that, but he isn't racist (**** he even offered to help train pavlik)Comment

He is not racist he made a racial comment to calzaghe which clearly was intended to get under his skin. Hopkins trainer was freddie roach who obviously is white, his best friends are white along with business partners and if you recall the touching story about his #1 fan (the white kid) who had cancer who hopkins spent time with, got him tickets to the calzaghe fight, dedicated his fight against pavlik to and was at his funeral after he died.

You're right though, if calzaghe said that he would have gotten far worse negative attention then hopkins did. Did hopkins make it that way, is he responsible for the double standard that exists in society? Nope, it has to do with history.
He said something to calzaghe to try to get under his skin, just like he did with Tito with the "beans & rice" comment. Now if he won the fight, I'm sure people would be calling him a genius and a master of mind games just like they did after the tito fight but since he did lose, and it was to a "whiteboy," I'm sure it backfired a bit on him and he had to pay the consequences for that and I'm also sure that's part of the reason why he didn't talk any **** to pavlik leading up to their fight.Comment

Because there are double standards in America does not make hopkins a racist now does it?

You Americans are ****ed. Black folks can say racist **** and get away with it, but if a white man says something racist....there is OUTRAGE.Comment
