Jones vs Hopkins II

yeah, i was never big on ruiz too much, but bhop wants that match with haye ... i want him to take it, so he can't use this fight with RJJ as his swan song ... i mean, RJJ has been HW champ, i think that is what Bhop wants (he hasn't won that title right?) ... so a win over RJJ and a HW title would (in hops mind) make him an equal to Roy ...

Exactly, as bj44 said and I concur with, Hopkins is obsessed with not living in Roy's shadow. The only reason he wants a HW title is to catch Jones in his own mind. Hopkins winning a HW title at this point would be remarkable, but HONESTLY....I don't see any way that he beats David Haye....not that same David Haye I watched yesterday...no way...

I hate going out on a limb like that....but I think Bernard gets seriously hurt in that fight.

Bernard will never be better than Roy Jones in their prime...

Haye landed some rabbit punches in that fight that would have KILLED B-Hop if he was SERIOUSLY hurt by the little kitten-pawing he got from Roy, and then he still wants to go on record and challenge Haye?

Don't do it Bernard....ride off into the sunset and let it end here. Roy...you too.

The answer here is simple...

Hopkins is NOT the future of the division, American or not....

So you root for Bernard till he loses, simple as that....

Oh s**t...

guess that don't make much sense....

WELCOME TO BOXING!!!

Jones was always a blast to watch, He would get all cocky drop those hands, start trash talking and dancing. Roy is still the man in my book as well.
