Bernard Hopkins talking about Adamek at CW

[Kris Silver]

Came across this video of Hopkins on ESPN talking quite seriously about wanting to make this fight with Adamek at CW. At one point he says it's going to be a big test for me as if it's a real likelyhood this fights going ahead. Good luck to him. Only thing I find odd is him saying he'd come in between 180-185. Well he came in that range for the Calzaghe fight, so that wouldn't be gaining weight like he said he would do. How can he get something as basic as that wrong? Anyways here it is...

adamek has slow hand speed and has slow reflexes. bernard will definately outbox him and most probably knock him out in the last rounds.

It would be a good fight for Hopkins to walk out on... he has stated he only wants one more fight and I think this would be a great fight to have as a final fight before deciding to retire.

It's probably going to happen. I can't see why Adamek wouldn't want to fight a legend.

[Pugilistic™]

I'm confident that Hopkins vs Adamek will happen.

Hopkins schools him.

Hopkins fights the right guy at the right time. Here is to hoping he fights Chad Dawson first.

I doubt he will even hurt him, he'll win but Adameks chin is granite.

you cant be serious... i super cereal that hopkins can not stop adamek.

hopkins wont hurt adamek, hopkins has a great right but so does cunnigham and banks and they couldn't keep adamek off him. it wash hardly a surprise in the vid when hopkins says he prefers guys who come forward and look to fight.

i still got adamek but it would be close

I still don't get why Hopkins talks of gaining weight, but then essentially goes on to say he won't by saying he'll be between 180-185. He could go to 190 and still be fine. Even that's just a gain of 5 lbs or so from an in fight weight at full LHW.
