      I think this is definatley his last fight. I don't think he will win but at least he's fighting top opposition still.

        anyone else think that a Roy Jones jr rematch would be perfect after each of their next fights?

        I reckon it would be the perfect bow out of the fight game!

            I think he respects Kelly, and this being his last fight maybe he wants to show his true side. Not the "Racist" etc that people percive him to be

              BH is maybe scared because Pavlik beat JT twice, when he couldnt. BH is a real old warhorse though isnt he. He could happily retire and people would be happy for him. But BH always wants that last challenge. Its as if he is in a no lose situation as if he beats Pavlik the younger man.
              It will be another major name on his CV. If BH loses, well he was too old to win. So its as if BH has nothing to lose and everything to gain. Obviously BH respects Pavlik because hes an American as well

                I don't like Hopkins but I can't deny that fact and respect him for that. On that note, "he will never lose to another white boy!"

                      Bernards just giving Pavlik false hope.

                      Bernard took Calzaghe to a close split decision in his last fight, so he is still very much in contention to win this fight.

                      I have a feeling Hopkins will pull something special out of the bag.
