      I would like to see Hopkins fight Glen Johnson again but not really anyone else.

      I'm not sure if he will retire but it would be a good idea, Hopkins is clearly not what he used to be. I don't think he threw anything else at Calzaghe except the right hand counter.

          it would be a btter fight

          The first go around was an ass kickin. but i think this would be closer. Roy jones jr in his prime would have destroyed tito but trindad held his own for the first half of the fight. Hopkins no longer has the killer instinct he once had and has lost some of the abilty to move late in the fight. This means somewhere along the line trindad is going to catch him and more the likely hurt him. The fight will more or less start there. Who knows what would happen after that or if the fight even happens. I see other fights for hopkins if he decides to fight on. A remtch with roy jones. A third fight with taylor or a remtach with calzahe. But if he fights trindad don't get caught with that huge shot. Jermain taylor rocked him with a huge right hand in there first fight and mercado dropped him twice for rushing in( the only two knock downs of his pro career)). The last thing Bernard wants is to end his career with his first knock out loss. Every fighter has one great fight left in him but was hopkins great fight last night.

            No need for a rematch here. Hopkins is too much for Tito.

                Personally, I want B-Hop to retire. The only fight i'd want to see Hopkins in would be a rematch with Calzaghe, but I know the fans and the fighters are not gonna want it. In my eyes hopkins won the close fight, and should retire. He looked awesome for a 43 yr old fighter.

                  He tried an uppercut- ONCE. He tried a head shot-with his own head- many times. He tried punching on the break and after the bell-many times. He passed the qualifying tests for a Screen Actors Guild card- easily.

                  He really tried many things.

                    Tito would put up a better fight this time but B-Hop will still win. I'd like to see em fight so Hopkins can go out with a win, but as a Tito fan also I'd hate to see him take anotha ass whippin. He's gonna become anotha Holyfield if he keeps goin too long.
