I don't think Froch would fight Hopkins. he was slating Calzaghe for fighting an older version of Hopkins few weeks back. I'm sure B-hop would take the fight to win a world title before he retires.
should it happen? can it happen? voice ur opinion!!!!
id luv 2 c this 1 hopkins will b a 3 division champ.
should it happen? no
could it happen? yeah, if the money is right, but not at 168.
Im sorry but I disagree with everyone who says hopkins couldn't stop froch, his power is highly underrated, and froch makes way too many mistakes technically I could defo see him getting tko'd from accumulative damage. Either way I think it is a pretty one-sided fight for hopkins, the only thing I have seen hopkins struggle with in boxing is speed and froch doesn't have much
i tell use all wat will happen froch will b on hopkins from the get go he won't b landing 2 many flush shots, hopkins will b throwing lead rights when froch comes in and doing alot of other fustrating things wit not much power, so the first 4 rds will b up 4 grabs some judges will give it 2 froch and some 2 hopkins. after say rd 4 bhop would figured him out completely and will b setting him up wit da jab putting bak when comes in, offsetting his feet making him feel awkward, turning him and coming at him good angles and when he get's in he will turn up the power and this will shock froch trust me and he will get TKOed by no later than rd 8.
I would love to see this, froch would stop old man popkins :boxing:
No chance. It'd be something like the Pavlik fight.

I don't want to see this.
Hopkins would take no risks, and Froch makes so many mistakes, that B-Hops would just pick him off, as and when he felt like it.
B-Hops at this point ultimately sees if these guys make too many mistakes to win a fight, and if they do, he punishes them.
It would be a crap spectacle and I don't want to see it. Hopkins wouldn't be able to KO Froch, and he would be scared of Froch's power. Thus he would be in his shell for the whole fight, and win a boring UD.
Froch should fight Pavlik, or Kessler.
i dont think hopkins would be scared of frochs power at all - hopkins has a great chin and has talked about going up to face adamek so power doesn't faze him. froch though could well be the hardest puncher that hopkins will face.
i can see the fight happening from froch's viewpoint a win over hopkins and he defeats a HOF'er, gains a respectable name on his resume and recognitions from the american audience, a KO win and he manages to do something calzaghe couldn't and adds further fuel to the fire that maybe joe did duck froch (not that i believe that but this is what froch will think).
for hopkins - a win over froch and he is a 3 weight divisional champ, he can say he beat the next big thing from the UK (froch) as well as beating the next big thing from the US (pavlik), a big payday, no doubt hopkins would outclass froch, he can say that he beat another man who beat taylor, and that he beat calzaghes heir apparent.
the number one reason why froch might be facing hopkins is because of hopkins pride. if froch had not defeated taylor i think the fight would probably not be made but fighters like hopkins and mosley are proud men. in the same way that mosley pursued his conqueror's (cotto) conqueror (mosley) hopkins might do the same thing.
btw - hopkins by wiiiidde UD
