ok, he tries to get Woods-DeLisle scuppered. Then he goes 4 a fight with Calzaghe, which poss jeopardises his title shot at Woods. Somehwere between then he ridicules all the light heavy champs, and is called out by Adamek. now, Roy Jones has mouthed off thru b/talk and Johnson's trying to fight Jones. bloody ridiculous, make your mid up

Well, Hatton does a good impression of a maoning minnie imo even though he's had a charmed existence in comparison to most of todays 'champs'. After all he's been through in his career I think Johnsons more than entitled to play the field and try and get the best fight and best deal for himself, for chrissakes the guys pushing 40 and has a family to feed while Hatton blows most of his money on booze and chips... I know who I'd rather see on his arse!... 8)

did i bring hatton into it.
least hatton shows some respect and doesn't keep bitching about everyone avoiding him.
johnson has fought roy jones and antonio tarver in recent fights and he's still complaining about everyone avoiding him.
hatton can't get near cotto or mayweather at the moment.

Hatton hasnt exactly been beating the door down to get at Cotto or Mayweather... has avoided Witter like the plague and gone back on his promise to give Collazo a rematch... As for Johnson he's seen loads of fighters mess him about for years... most of the big fights he;s had he's taken at short notice, he's seen Calzaghe pull out of fights with him about 3 times now, I'm not surprised he says fighters are ducking him, they are, its a plain fact... Johnson is a real warrior who would have been champion years ago if he had got some breaks and some straight decisions...

robbed? he wasn't robbed against Ottke. imo he was lucky he didn't lose a 2 pt rd at the end of Woods I, which would've easily justified a draw. he wasn't robbed in America against Sheika, Sosa, Harmon - these were legit losses.

Didn't he pull out of a fight with Adamek though? And hes got a fight with Woods on, Adamek wants him, as does injury prover Calazage, BHOPS rightly doesn't, tarver would have fought him again if he won.
PS you can't blame him for looking for the best fight even if it screws others around
I actually saw hitman_hattons first post without reading the posters name and I could tell it couldn't be anyone else

Thats just your opinion, lots of people would disagree... even Woods acknowledged that Johnson was unlucky not to get the verdict in their first fight!...

avoided witter like the plague, i'll have to remember that joke sometime.
when did he agree to give collazo a rematch???

u show me the quote.

he never stood there at the post fight press conference and committed to a rematch.
calzaghe has pulled out 3 times.

johnson is a man who has taken on most of the biggest opponents in boxing and he's still complaining.
he's also fought bernard hopkins as well hasn't he.

cheeky bastard gets around doesn't he.

Didnt see the Sosa fight, other than that I agree with all those verdicts!
