Bernard Hopkins Waiting To Land One Last Career Fight

[daggum]

FFS Hopkins would knock Jones out at this point...wtf is the point. You have got to admire Hops he will only fight somone he sees as a challenge no bums or washed up old men for Hopkins.

he's the exact opposite of calzaghe

how old r u??????10

sorry,but you are a total twat

Bernard hopkins has had a great carrer and has nothing to prove to anyone. He has held his own with the best in the sport for the last 20 years(maybe more). I think if he retires now it would be the best time but what do you say to a guy who fights the best fighters in the world and ducks no one (except retirement). If Joe doesn't want a rematch, who cares? B-hop has done enough for the sport, not to have to look for fights. Its not like Joe knocked him out( our even came close) our even did enough to win the fight. Real boxing fans know B-hop is the last of the real raw boxers and anything he does from here own out is extra icing on the cake.
Oh and the last thing I want to say is, the only guy with something left to prove is joe calzage. If he is retired and if this is were he calls it quits. so long joe you will not be missed, slap punching, pitty patting and fighting guys past there prime won't get you on anybodys all time greatest list( except maybe the all time overated list).

ahh,hurts havin the white boy beat the pin up you jack off to doesnt it?

he's the exact opposite of calzaghe

no, if that were true,then that would imply that hopkins was a **** fighter,and we know that isnt the case

[TRAVI$]

I bet Hopkins v Jones will be made.

[Haglerwins]

You want to see Roy get viciously stopped a second time?

[Pugilistic™]

I would like to see Hopkins - Calzaghe 2 but i don't see it happening, Calzaghe is not interested.

Hopkins - Jones 2 is pointless imo, Jones is past it and Hopkins knows this which is why he isn't taking the fight. He would get no credit for it.

Hopkins - Taylor 3 is pointless again imo, They already fought twice and even though i thought Hopkins deserved the win the second time around Taylor won both fights, Even if Hopkins won a third fight he would still be 1-2 against Taylor.

That leaves Hopkins with Kessler and Dawson, He said he doesn't want to fight Dawson and by the looks of things a fight with Kessler doesn't interest him which then basically leaves him with no meaningful fights this year.

Make the glen johnson fight

I would like to see Hopkins give Glen Johnson a rematch. Johnson deserves it! He beat Tarver and he beat Chad Dawson on my scorecard.

[RisAri0]

his next fight (either joe or JT) will definitely be his last I believe...I'm sure he wants to end his career before the next decade arrives.. he's fuccin' 44 years old in a sport where at that age one is punch-drunk, retired, and fat... and y should he fight Kessler when he can go after the fighter that beat him and kessler?

[FLY TY]

What would a rematch with Joe do to Hopkins legacy? add to it or more add to his wallet?
Seems like he needs to add more into his co shared company (Golden Boy Promotions)

both. he lost to calzaghe, who is currently #2 on most ppl's pound-4-pound lists. what do you mean what would the fight do to hopkins's legacy????

Hopkins just turned down a big money fight with kessler, so thats alot of ****.

kessler is a nobody. furthermore, he lost to the guy who beat hopkins. no point in fighting kessler.....

Am saying he dosent have balls, hes looking for a big money fight, and guess what he got offered a big money fight and turned it down, is the old man looking for a easy fight for big money???? Kesslers people offered him big money to fight kessler and he **** it. FACT

see above post idiot. kessler-hopkins is meaningless, unless you're mikkel kessler.

Did it take balls to take on undefeated calzaghe at age 42? Did it take balls to take on undefeated pavlik at age 43? Did it take balls to go up two weight classes at age 41 after losing twice to taylor to fight tarver? Answer those questions truthfully.



He's looking to fight Calzaghe then retire. There is a small chance he could fight someone else that MAKES SENSE.



Supposedly he got offered money to fight Kessler in Europe. Again, who is kessler to hopkins? Again, "Kessler is a no name in the states (lowest ratings in the history of HBO boxing was kessler/calzaghe), he lost a fight very easily to calzaghe and has beat no one of note prior or since. Who is kessler to hopkins? He's a slightly better version of pavlik without the name."



And you know it's FACT because it was reported by Team Kessler and Michael Marley (who works for Kessler)? That's you're 100% non-disputable evidence? Thank god you're not a judge.

keep trying to talk sense, but intelligence is not plentiful in the world...sometimes, the more sense you make, the dumber the ones on the receiving end become. you make sense, and to other sensible people, you will too.

Adamek or Dawson.

no. and adamek is the equivalent of fighting kessler......

I bet Hopkins v Jones will be made.

i bet it won't. beating roy jones, who was just victimized two months ago, makes absolutely no sense at all. as a hopkins fan, i'd be left scratching my head if he signed to fight jones. remember, he said jones should retire after that loss....now to fight him?????

I would like to see Hopkins give Glen Johnson a rematch. Johnson deserves it! He beat Tarver and he beat Chad Dawson on my scorecard.

that's YOUR card buddy. yours doesn't matter. another meaningless fight for hopkins. he ALREADY beat glen johnson, what would beating him again do? i'm tired of you fools who suggest the world owes glen johnson something b/c he gave a spirited effort against chad dawson, but LOST.

glen johnson deserves nothing other than a mikkel kessler fight...
