    Its not like Hopkins is an exiting boxer he's just grabs all the time. tito in his weight class was arguably the best finisher in boxing. hopkins hasn't manage to do well against fighters from his same weight. 2 losses to Taylor, lost to calzaghe, Really lost to Winky. And beat an out of shape Antonio Tarver that showed stamina when he fought jones. Tarver had finish doing the movie Rocky where he went up in weight to turn heavyweight in the movie. Hopkins is over rated. Pavlik, Trinidad, De La Hoya, Winky all came up in weight to fight him.
    How many big names has hopkins fought in a higher weight class then him? You dont see hopkins moving up and facing the best. He became famous for beating and overweight Trinidad that doesn't car anymore to get in a decent shape. But as least he fought like a man and isn't holding all the time or making up excuses or faking low blows. B-hop is boring.

      If this could be true. I don't see the need for it to happen. It will only mean one thing, another defeat on Trinidad's record.

          maybe if theres a clause where hopkins can only use one hand... things could get ugly for him

              hopkins fights the winner of taylor froch - THAT is a match people want to see. catch weight of 170.
              What? No it isn't. Not at all.

              If BHop wants to fight again it should either be for a Cruiser title or Dawson.

                This is almost the same **** as watching Mayweather against Marquez. Marquez is already old and slow. At 147 he's just a target for Mayweather. I see these two fights to be very similiar.

                  ROFL.

                  That is one seriously ***ed up post bro. There is too much in there to tear apart but overall, thoroughly ***n ******ed. Good job.

                      This rematch is pointless. The first time around was pretty one sided.
