How will you react when Hopkins pummels Jones tonight?

I will be truly sad. Roy's career will probably be over after this one if he loses. I am pulling for him though.

It will be like an early bday present for me.

A few weeks ago I said I wasn't a Hopkins fan anymore once he decided to take this fight. But I feel a little different now. I understand why he's fighting Roy Jones. But after this fight he does need to fight Chad Dawson. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. He can't fight Haye because Haye wants to fight one of the Klitchkos and he will have a mandatory against Valuev. The Adamek fight is less meaningful now that Adamek gave up his Cruiserweight title to fight at Heavy. Come on Bully, quit defending Hops so much. The only guy I would give Hopkins a pass for fighting over Dawson would be Cunningham who has been mentioned in this thread since it would be an all Philly showdown and I think it would crown a Cruiserweight champ. But there again, Hopkins would be fighting a guy who got beat by Adamek. And if Hopkins fought Bute it would be a fight against a smaller fighter. Hopkins needs to retire or fight Dawson after he beats Jones tonight.

That was a great performance by Adamek. Broke him down with a beautiful left hook to the body. No it wasn't, he was befuddled for the first half of the fight with Banks' movement and counter punching. As soon as he started going to the body and putting his combinations together, Banks broke down in a couple rounds. Chad is not Jonathan Banks.

Wtf Oaktown the fight already happened. Jones won a UD 120-108 on all 3 scorecards. He announced his retirement in the post fight interview. 25 fukking pounds more. Dawson would be slower, and would get hurt.

tonight? wtf that shit is tommorrow must be the time zone Wtf Oaktown the fight already happened. Jones won a UD 120-108 on all 3 scorecards. He announced his retirement in the post fight interview.

Adamek is clearly better at CW than he was at LHW, agree? He dominated LHW only losing once against the current best LHW Chad Dawson. The comp at CW is not strong enough to compare it to LHW. Street would you stop saying Dawson fought old geezers in Johnson and Tarver? First of all they were top 5 LHWs. Secondly, boxing fans were breathing down Dawson's neck to fight Johnson again even leading to when he signed the fight. After he signed the fight they complained about him ducking Cloud, a guy who's best win is over a shot Woods. The Tarver rematch was obligated since it was due to a rematch clause. Now he's gonna fight another top 5 LHW Jean Pascal.

I got to jump in. Did you see the first half of Adamek-Banks? Put Banks in a southpaw stance, increase his athletic ability (speed and explosiveness), add a great jab, combination punching, better mentality, and you have a repeat performance for Dawson at cruiser. On topic: I will be ecstatic if the pummeling leads to a stoppage because it means I'm getting a few notes off of it.

So you think Adamek was drained at 175? Yes. He was drained there. This isn't just moving up 8 pounds or some shit, its 25 pounds. From 175 to 200.

At 200 pounds, 25 pounds higher than where they fought, really? man Adamek lost to Dawson, but he was a zombie in there. Marquez outboxed, and beat Pacquiao all over the ring at 126, and 130, would he be able to do that at 147? So you think Adamek was drained at 175?

I like Adamek I don't know if he is better at CW. I think Dawson could beat him at CW. I thought Cunningham won the majority of the rounds against Adamek. But, Adamke won the fight with the knockdowns of course. I am not sure if Adamek would be able to drop Dawson that many times at CW. And, Dawson could give Adamek the type of problems that Cunningham gave him IMO.

Dawson P4P is better then Adamek. Everyone agrees. Yes he is. Chad wont beat Adamek at CW though.

Dawson P4P is better then Adamek. Everyone agrees.

How is he totally different? Adamek is clearly better at CW than he was at LHW, agree?

I'm rooting for B-Hop; thats my dude but I wouldn't mind if Roy won.

Yes, willing to fight him at cruiserweight. Adamek at LHW and cruiserweight are totally different. How is he totally different?

I'm drinking and tight lol.. I shouldn't be talking to any Hopkins fans I'm friends w right now lol

And Adamek was a guy who Hopkins was willing to fight over Dawson. Yes, willing to fight him at cruiserweight. Adamek at LHW and cruiserweight are totally different.

I am talking about when Roy fought johnson and tarver Oh, thought you were talking about Dawson, my bad.
