    Calzaghe: "Forget Maskaev, Hopkins Fight Me"

    Super Middleweight champion Joe Calzaghe would like Bernard Hopkins to forget about coming out of retirement for a move to the heavyweight division in order to face WBC champion Oleg Maskaev. Calzaghe wants Hopkins to come out of retirement to face him, and he is willing to fly across the ocean to make the fight happen. [details]

    This is a very difficult fight for Calzaghe, and a very difficult fight for Hopkins.

    Would love to see it.

            I guess using that logic Roy Jones was a bum? He never left the US. Hence he never crossed the ocean.

              Calzaghe doing the right business move putting his mouth where he is.

              He is fighting Woods after I think he showed fight Bell Oneal and go up to HW.

              But he must not be so ****y or he would be KOed. Those HW are slower than Lacey but if they punch the punch.

              That is buiness of selling his legacy and its a good move to call out Hopkins even he he nows he wont accept because Hopkins is a bigger name than Calzaghe so he calls out his opponent

                  Calzaghe has offered out Hopkins and RJJ throughout his career...

                    BUT according to RJJ himself he was the BEST ever.. so why worry about judges? if you are THAT good then you either get a KO or its so onesided that even paid off judges could not do anything but give you the descion.. OH WAIT!!!! thats right.. RJJ is all talk...

                    My fave RJJ quote "I dont mind being hit, Just dont hit me too hard"
