    Even if hops beats Adamek and Roy beat Dawson Roy and Hops will never get into the same ring together unless Golden Boy and Square Ring where promoting the same fight. Roy and Hops have been having their rematch every year since their first fight. They can never agree on money. Hops wants 50/50 and roy wants 60/40. I can see Roy's point he does have a win over him so i can see where he wants the higher split. If Hops would have taken it than they would have fought. But both their ego's are HUGE. If that fight ever ever happens i would be VERY suprised
    Remeber 60/40 i kick yo ass 60/40 you get yo ass torn up.
    Jones would have no leverage for his argument now though. Roy wouldn't be able to choose Hop as his opponent, Hop would choose Roy. If B-Hop said a 50/50 split, Roy would cream himself because he'd know this would be his last chance at being a big time player. He'd be exactly like he was against Calzaghe where he was okay with whatever they gave him because he knew Calzaghe was the man. Had Roy BEATEN Calzaghe the situation between Him and Hopkins would be vastly different though.

      Oh i agree but also calz was regaurded as one of if not the best P4P. Im just saying i just still think that the ego's would get in the way as it always did. Im not saying that roy would try to get the split but i think he would push for 50/50. I dont see roy settling for 60/40 in the favor of hops i just cant. I agree that hops would and deserve the split since he gave calz a better fight and he has been improving with age. Roy has been going down. All im simply saying is that i just cant see these two getting into the ring unless one of their ego's drop and drops far lol.

        The only fight IMO that makes sense is Bernard vs Roy in their final fights. Obviously many would assume Bernard will have the upper and after coming off a big win over Pavlik and Roy losing embarrassingly to Calzaghe.

        But in reality, what does either have to lose at this point? Bernard beating Adamek IMO doesn't do that much to an already stellar career for Bernard, but for the entertainment factor and just to see who takes it after so many years...I say why not??

        Jones nor Bernard beat Dawson and never will, so why not??

          bernard has a chance to beat Dawson more then Jones. Plus i feel Hopkins would beat Dawson in decision. I mean Johnson went toe to toe with Dawson and won in a lot of peoples eyes. Hopkins is better then Johnson.

          Now Jones would get Smacked up by Dawson because he does not have the defense like Bernard
