    Doesn't he have the Pac-man fight less than a month before?

      Well Hopkins is going to need all the help he can get. But will Freddie Roach be enough? I doubt it.

        I think it's good I guess, since Hopkins never really listens to his corner anyway and Roach never gives that much advice.

        Though why not ****m Richardson? Or even bring Bouie Fisher back.

          There was a rumour a while back about ****m telling people about Bernard Hopkins' jail experiences. Maybe it was partly true?

              Well I'm sure ****m would still be in the corner like he was for Bernard-Winky. He just wouldn't be giving advice, helping with pads, running, etc. since he had a stroke.
