Why is HBO calling for Pavlik/Hopkins???

[Truth]

Bernard should retire, hes proven enough. Hes 43...c'mon Hop, go promote.

[-Antonio-]

Because HBO and Golden Boy are tight. That's why they have all these PPV dates so they can steal our money with the likes of Casamayor/Marquez and Mosley/Mayorga.

Whatever

I'd much rather see Pavlik pound on Winky all night. I can see it now. Winky will cover up for 80% of the fight, throw 3million jabs and 20 "so-called" power punches, then cry and complain when they give Pavlik the decision.

This be bull****...WTF does this have to do with a Hopkins-Pavlik thread?...STFU.
Anyway before we were so rudely interrupted, Hopkins will make Pavlik look BAD!!!!

Pavlik 1-2 and done will work on B-Hop and Hopkins chin is good, Pavlik chin is trash and he doesn't have the speed that Joseph and Jermaine has so he wil have to step up his game to win.

Hopkin wins 12 UD...only fast fighter beat B-Hop (Jones, Taylor, Calzaghe).

Nard would get ****ed up, he should retire.

[Queen_Leia]

Hopkins is old as **** but still would never get ****ed up

Nard would get ****ed up, he should retire.

This is Bernard Hopkins we are taking about....Nobody **** up Hopkins, he can be outspeed or outworked but never ****ed up.

He should retire because he's awful.

[RisAri0]

Pavlik would be a bloody mess if he ever fought B-Hop...but I don't like this fight myself, Pavlik should just say no and do better things and plus I thought B-Hop is done with young fighters?..Hopkins should just retire, cuz I mean there's nothing left for him now...he probly wants Pavlik just so he can try to make up for his losses with Taylor..

i don't know pavlik aint exactly elusive i'd never count hopkins out he's never been beatn up

In the eyes of the casual fans, Hopkins is probably still "America's greatest MW", and certainly its most famous. Hopkins doesn't have the stamina for MW anymore so kelly would probably beat him and thus America would have a new MW king to root for.

I actually think this would be a good fight though, a bit boring I'm sure but it would be competitive and a good test for Kelly considering Hopkins has one of the best chins.

I'd quite like to see it made.
