Frank Warren and Joe Calzaghe have better get real creative real ****ing quick!
Toney Tarver was the big fight for Joe and now that fight is all but gone, a fight with Glenn Johnson really means nothing and fighting all risk zero reward fights against Kessler or Adamnek are probably not the smartest moves in the world.
Who is left to really cement the term LEGACY for Joe?
Bernard Hopkins.
Bernard is all about the money-always has been and always will be and if Warren and Calzaghe are to get their dream fight they are going to have to make some serious ****ing concessions(which would be a first).
Joe needs to sign this fight for next to nothing, he needs to pull a Judah when Judah fought Spinks and take nothing...Nard needs to get almost the entire purse and that purse will most likely have to hit 15 million give or take to entice Bernard to come to Wales.
Even if Bernard doesnt take it it would be a hell of a Public Relations move for Joe who has been a disaster from the PR standpoint his enitre career.
Hopkins is the one fight out there that will absolutely cement Calzaghe as a true great...do I expect team Calzaghe to go after this fight...maybe-but not in the way that I suggest and if they really truly care about being a great all over the world and not just across the pond then they will take my advice and at the very least push Nard "all in" with an offer that he would have to at least ponder.
Cmon Frank, Cmon Joe...clutch up for once outside of the ring and blow the boxing world away with an offer no man can refuse...look what happens if you dont....next up Mr. Clinton Woods-ah ****!
