    I'll put money on Solomon over anyone at 147 up until Mayweather and Pacquiao.
    I think Bradley and Berto would beat Solomon right now.

      I thought about it, but I'm pretty sure I'd pick him over Berto.

        He wastes to much motion, gets out of position and doesn't have any real defense beyond athleticism because he is out of position.

        That has nothing to do with D-Hop. In fact I would go as far to say D-Hop is a perfect match for him because he is letting Solomon do as he pleases.

            let's not get carried away here guys, D-hop is a decent fighter but lets not forget he got a gift decision against Stevie Forbes and lost to Holt. He's pretty decent skills but like I said he lacks certain important aspects which is why Bernard kicked his ass out of his house a few years back, he's been giving a lot of chances and continues to F it up, I never thought he was a mentally strong fighter.

              Mike Jones vs. Brad Solomon

              Make it happen.

              My money is on Jones.

                This is the fight that I was expecting, a nice snoozer.

                    Your opinion, mine is that he would beat them. Berto has trouble against quick, slick fighters (see early rounds vs Forbes and Collazo). Bradley would be 5'5 against a 5'11 Solomon, who's bigger, stronger, and quicker, I like his chances. These aren't locks by any means, they would be good, close, competitive fights, but I just see Solomon's potential and he can and would beat them, if they fought.

                      John David Jackson is a good cornerman

                      but Hopkins doesnt listen
