Dawson can't be compared to Calzaghe....just yet

There are plenty of good posters from there. They just haven't made it to this thread yet . But yeah, it's a little tiring to hear every perfect excuse as to why Calzaghe's resume is so barren in his 20's but for other fighters it's ducking and running.

So tiring that you are never off Calzaghe threads.

Im getting a De Ja Vous lol

LOL. Actually Dirk, I'm on plenty of threads all the time. Perhaps if you ever looked at other threads that didn't involve a British fighter, you might notice that .

True. Hopkins pissed away many opportunities those years. More important than the Calzaghe bout - which was never even got to contracts being drawn - he threw away the opportunity to fight Roy Jones, a rematch he claimed he wanted for years. But I guess in the end, Hopkins got the last laugh.

By having losses to Jones and Calzaghe on his record?

No by making more money than both, having a bigger legacy than one and arguably the other.

The people who are whining he should fight...Tavoris Cloud.

What's familiar, Dirk?

Who has said that in this thread?

That feeling of De Ja Vous is familiar, "IMDAZED" lol

Are you implying I'm De Ja Vous, Dirk? Don't be a female, come out and just say it.

Pulling out through injury and pulling out through asking for an unrealistic sum of money are now the considered the same thing.

indeed.

Btw which greats did Hopkins fight instead? Oh yeah........Morrade Hakkar and Carl Daniels.

Yes very

How is asking for more money the same as actually agreeing to fight someone, then pulling out and costing your promoter $100,000???

Then to top if off, when your better, you dont even fight the guy you pulled out against, instead you fight bums like Manfredo etc.

Ps. Before you respond, remember hopkins not only called out joe at 43, but got in the ring with him.

Agreed. And those are facts.
