Would you still watch a Roy Jones Jr. v Bernard Hopkin rematch?

      In reality, he's on the same level as RJJ at this stage of his career, not much difference at all. Only difference is that B-Hop is being worshipped and overrated for beating the kid Kelly.
      ummm.. I strongly disagree. I'm going by their performances with Joe.

          what about you buying calzaghe vs the irishman pavlik, styles make fights

            hopkins would not get clobbered and knocked down in the first round and hopkins would not let a blind shot fighter survive the whole 12 rounds. just my take.

              If he came to Wales it would likely fill the Millennium Stadium (got 50,000 for Kessler), not sure about ppv.

              Will it happen? Dawson more likely at this point. I think joe will fight again because his Dad seems keen.

                  One of those guys would get knocked out...not sure who though.

                    can calzaghe move up to heavy weight and win a title against a current champ(like chagaev)like roy did at the top of his game, no or yes with an excuse that its different or something

                      I think Joe is too old to be moving up. He is at the end of his career no matter how well he's fighting (reckon he has 2/3 fights left) and you don't take those sorts of risks when you're at that point.
