    We know it's a fact that he was planning to fight at 175, but two weeks to drop 7 pounds... you honestly think that's a big problem for a pro fighter who was always used to making weight late? Damn, my girlfriend lost 4 pounds on some silly Nintendo Wii game in a few hours! LOL.

    ****ing excuses man. Wack.

      Kessler has been on HBO twice and both times he put up a great effort. He completely dominated Andrade on national TV.

          From attendance records of Williams fights, he may be more popular than Williams in the U.S.A

          lol.

              Of course. Who doesnt know Kessler's name? The Calzaghe fight alone got him tons of name recognition.

                That was one of the lowest watch fight on HBO. It was stinker rating wise.

                  You are at 175 the weight you meant to be. Dropping another 7 pounds is a lot.

                    I like Hopkins a lot, he has a very good resume and seems willing to fight anyone, but how do you explain the fact that he accepted an offer to fight Joe in '02, then changed his mind the next day asking for double the amount.
                    Forgive me if someone has made these points in the interim, but wasn't Calzaghe merely part of a prefabricated package of fights that Hopkins agreed to face, it wasn't necessarily him and Joe negotiating one on one in the classic sense. I might be wrong on this, but I seem to remember Hopkins mentioning this in a radio interview, that all 3 fights in the package were actually predetermined.

                    Also, given the erratic & paranoid behavior of Hopkins throughout his career, I don't think I could call Hopkins turning his back on or suddenly wanting to renegotiate a "duck" as much as it is basically par for the course with him.
