Hmm a 42 year old Hopkins vs a 38 year old Jones. Why am I still a little excited about this? Considering I also think it shouldn't happen...I'd pick Jones by split decision.

Jones will win...n it also makes sense that he should...I believe he still has what it takes to become the #1 Lt. Hvwt in the world....he may not have his old reflexes, but he still has sum speed with pop in his punches...and I believe he's gonna improve on his D....
AND when Hopkins lose to jones, he can then drop down to super middleweight and set up fights with Calzaghe n Winky....
2 awesome southpaws vs. a dude who craves fighting southpaws than conventional...
I'm actually excited for hopkins returning...if he believes he still has his legs then so be it...so far he hasn't shown signs of old age right?Last edited by RisAri0; 01-08-2007, 06:43 PM.Comment

I'll say there's gonna be a big difference. RJJ lost a lot of mental toughness after what happened to his career while Bhops is still 100%.
It's obvious, immediately after disaster struck RJJ's career who did he fought? Compare it to Bhops who went on and fought Tarver.
I bet they still have the shills but it's more of psychological preparedness.Comment
