          And Hopkins wouldn't go over to another country to fight a C level CRUiserweight because he isn't desperate for wins like Jones is. He could get BIG NAME fights. So if you credit Roy Jones for getting knocked out in the 1st round by a C Level Fighter, then shoot yourself .. lol
          People who weren't just a casual would have known.

          As for Froch? This guy is good but is so easy to hit. Calzaghe would walk away with an wide UD.

          Froch became a lil stalkerish in regards to Joe. Thankfully he came to his senses and started doing his own thing without mentioning Joe everytime they put a camera infront if him.

          Roy Jones Jr does deserve credit for having the balls to go over there and fight. Whether he should have taken the fight is another question.

          I know Hopkins would never go up against Green.

              I have sent you some green karma for Calzaghe obsession.

              In regards to Johnson. Calzaghe had a back injury and was willing to reschedule but Johnson got pissed off and went look else where.
