Am I the Only one who thinks B-Hop should go to Heavy?

[MANGLER]

He wouldn't beat the K bros. It seemed like a cool idea when he was gonna fight Oleg, but not now. Adamek at CW mighta been ok tho. At this point if he ain't fightin Dawson Bhop should just go out.

[Pretty Boy1]

I think Hopkins is a bit to small for heavyweight! He could maybe do Cruiserweight but that's it. He should fight Dawson and find out who's the best at Light Heavyweight and crown a Ring Champion!

[STILL DETOX]

bhop should fight roy and then both retire

[Pullcounter]

I think this is the only way to improving his legacy ( not that he needs it) but in reality there isnt any fighter in his weight class that would improve much more than what it is already.

I really dont think beating Chad Dawson would do that much.

But if he went up to heavy and challenge one of the K-Brothers and win he would probably increase his all time standing by 20.

yeah, if hops somehow beat one of the K sisters his legacy would be off the charts, but the K sisters are way too big for hopkins.

hops better just retire.

[FLY TY]

the only fight for hopkins, would be a fight for "legacy" against another "legendary" type fighter at this stage in his career. unfortunately, when calzaghe retired, he tooks hopkins' future with him. that was the only fight that made any sense.

at age 44, it probably wouldn't be wise for hopkins to be toying around with his weight....

[Abstraction]

He is 44. The last thing he should be doing is having more bouts, let alone moving up to HW.

Hopkins - RJJ 2, Both retire with Pay Day. Forget this "Legacy" BS.

[Spray_resistant]

This is a dumb idea because he is an actual LHW.......and middle aged.

[ottoevans]

I think its the only fight he has left, or retire.

If he fights Dawson and wins that wont change his standings say 10 years from now.

But he goes out and beats a heavyweight champ, not we're talking top 25 atg.

Plus imagine the buzz in that PPV fight? Boxing would be in the limelight again for a while.

[The_Visitation]

B-Hop might win fights at cruiser ar HW, but he's only got one or two and I just can't see them being signature fights. He might outpoint Valuev (as might a lot of other people), but would get destroyed by anyone fast enough to land a few.

Dawson is his best fight, IMHO. I would certainly see that as a huge 'legacy' win for whoever did win.

[Spiegelo]

Yeah he may beat Ibrigamov, Holyfield, Toney, Oquendo, even Valuev. Klitschko 1 or 2? He's 44 years old, let's not get him killed now..
