being that floyd isn't available...what would you think of this fight if it was at 147 for mannys belt? i kind of like the fight as a title defense rather than a bs catchweight belt quest.
Hopkins has also never been owned in the ring like Margarito was against Mosley.
I think that has more to do with hopkins style. I don't think anyone would ever "dominate b-hop"....because even in victory, it's hard to look good against him.
I have a problem with the p4p king giving a fighter who has commited boxings cardinal sin, a huge payday. Phuck'em.
Co-sign here!!The pfp king,should fight for the title against a real 154lber,not Margarito!!
Never been caught but yet he does it on camera in front of the whole world. :rofl:

But yet Hopkins deserves one against Pascal after the horrible showing with Jones and other fights??
Hopkins is 45 and ATG, yet he's still a legit threat to Pascal. Please don't compare Hopkins to Margarito.

Technically he hasn't earned a shot but when u reach a certain level you can get fights just off your name...
Mayweather-DLH was for a belt...that no one really cared to recognize...
Andre Berto would have been a more respectable fight.
no doubt. call me old school but i like to see contenders get title shots...instead of watching promoters recycle "big name" fighters.

Difference: Hopkins has never been caught cheating.

I would still not like it but would eventually accept it, the fact that he's fighting Margarito for a vacant belt at a catch weight is just embarrassing.
That would be more respectable even though Marg doesn't deserve a title shot at all...
i agree with him not deserving a shot. i'd like to see berto get his shot.
