      Comes off the streak beating the best man in light heavy and one of the best p4p fighters, and going to fight another p4p fighter and a best supermiddle in the world, but americans don't care much for that, huh?


      I mean, let's be honest, most of your ppv buying power are morons, they will buy anything that's been well promoted and was on MTV(or BET). If they are not buying something that is most likely the error of the marketing team, not the fighter's.

        Yea it's not like I don't like Hopkins, but IMO he is being grossly overrated by some of the people in this forum.

              NO PPV? **** YEAH.

              Though that means we'll have less chance of getting a good undercard. Then again Golden PPV's (minus Cotto Mosley) have ****ty undercards anyway.

                Yeah. True. I love how Europeans call Americans dumb, fat, lazy. Do you guys know what we think about you? I'll tell ya: Nothing. We don't think about you. Your entire continent is irrelevant in the 21st century. Deal with it.
