Ike said that X was a very old man who was slowing down and he knows that he would knock him out

I could be wrong, but Quartey's not the youngest guy around, right?

Either way, BHop won't fight Quartey, cuz the public has no clue who he is = no PPV = no BHop.

Next Hop fight's gotta be against J-Taylor, and that would easily be a PPV'er

Hops wins this by UD Quartey is not a natural Middle and it remains to be seen whther he is the same fighter he was at Welter

next to hopkins, quartey is one of my favorite fighters, but if *** boy vargas can out box him, hopkins would bludgeoned him to near death , like joppy........and i'm a huge quartey fan, as much as hopkins too..

Quartey is a household name amongst boxing fans. The man makes for great fights.

I could see Hopkins fighting Quartey as an easy fight and fighting a name, I mean he did fight Allen 3 times and call him a threat each time *sighs*

Quartey should drop down to 154 and clean up that division or welterweight and join the vast mix.

By the way, I think Quartey is like 35 I may be wrong.

This fights not gonna happen, it's too late in Hopkins career to be tryin to fight him after such a long time in retirement. Ike shoulda tried to do this years ago. I don't think Hopkins is gonna be looking anywhere in his direction.

BHop would knock him out. Quartey was on the verge of being knocked out in welter an jr. middleweight how would he make it against the best at middleweight.

Ike cant deal with B-hop's heart.

Just to point that out:

He was bodyslammed to the canvas by Echols, in the 6th round of their second fight. Bernard Suffered a dislocated shoulder, and decided to keep fighting. So if anyone questions his heart.......

i'd be amazed if hopkins fought bazooka. hopkins wants super fights, not someone who has fought once in 5 yrs. it sounds like hopkins will move up to fight glen johnson or fight j taylor.

That says ALOT about a fighter.

That was by far Hopkins most impressive victory next to the Trinidad fight.

I was never impressed by him knocking out a blown up DLH.
That shoulder thing, makes me view bernard in a whole new light.

Quitali had a shoulder problem as well.
coined "rotator cuff" LOL.

Bernard's shoulder was OUT OF THE ****ING SOCKET!

I think the fight would be interesting depending on what Quartey has left in the tank. He's 35 & from what reports I heard about his 1st comeback fight, he looked a little above average. He stopped the guy in 8. I'll wait & see Ike's next performance & who he fights to give him a fair shake.

Bazooka is the only other fighter to really beat De la Hoya.

I disagree:

Mosley beat him in the first fight, and Pernell Whittaker was robbed by the judges in their fight.

Quartey beat Oscar in that fight. That was a gift from the judges.I though that Ike beat him more convincingly than Mosely in the 1st fight.

Maybe if the fight happened four years ago. But now it would be a miracle if Ike could finish the fight against Hops. I mean come on what has Quartey done lately?
