How many people think...

[INFAMOUZ]

That we will see Bernard Hopkins fight Johnson or Tarver in 2005? I think that we probably will. It's just coming together too perfectly for it not to happen. I think this might be a situation like Tyson-Lewis or Hopkins-De la Hoya, where people have heard the rumors so many times that when it actually happens they think it's a hoax.

How many people think Hopkins is scared and hiding out at middleweight? That's been the rap on him for years, but I don't buy it. I think we could be headed for a real superfight. This would be the equivalent of Hagler knocking out Leonard and then moving up to fight Spinks.

hopkins hiding out? no
i think hopkins being the champ people gotta come to him. you see boxers move up and down after having so much success in a certain weight class and are never the same you cant mess with hopkins legacy by making him move up. as far as a fight with tarver or jonhson i think hopkins wins easy not even close as long as nothin crazy happens. i mean tarver and jonhson.......hopkins is in a whole different leauge imho

Hopkins defense is untouchable at this point.

I think Hopkins has proved he is a great middleweight champ. The only thing left to do is to move up and fight a Tarver or Johnson. Both would be big money fights for him and both would be great fights. Although I believe Tarver would be the tougher fight of the two for Hopkins.

Maybe Tarver. He's got the personality and a better look.

Hopkins destroyed Johnson once all ready and Hopkins vs. Glen is hardly a PPV event, unless Glen would just destroy Tarver, which is unlikely.

Big money fights for Hopkins don't really include going up in weight, unless it's Tarver. He's better off against Winky, Mosley, DLH or Trinidad again, maybe Sturm. That's it.
