Is Hopkins scared to fight Roy Jones again?

[Chase8400]

No. There's just no point. Bhop still has good fight left in him. RJ really doesn't.

The question is, does Tito? There would be less of a point in a rematch, at least Jones holds a win over Hopkins.

[El Dominicano]

Seriously, ya tryin to get RJJ killed? This fight made alot of sense a long time ago, but now...not interested. As for Tito, I would much rather him face RJJ again but the Tito fight is just a money fight

B-Hop ain't scared of Roy, no reason to be

[Kevin Jesus]

I thought so too but whats the excuse for wanting to face Tito now? Because he looked so good in his last outing?

Unfortunately, Hopkins is being the king of contradiction so far. He turned down Dawson because he "doesn't want to ruin another 26 year old" and "he doesn't want to ruin a young black fighter". Then he turns around and says yes to Williams who is a 27 year old, young black boxer who has a bright future.

Hopkins doesn't want to fight natural light heavies. Jones and Dawson are Light heavies. Tarver was the last Light Heavyweight that Hopkins fought.

Apparently he wasn't interested in facing Jones in the early 2000's either based on that theory. And Jones is still more of a money maker than Tito would be. Explain that for Hopkins.

Tarver was also the ONLY natural light-heavy Hopkins has fought. Jones started as a MW.

They just couldn't agree. B-Hop ain't afraid of Roy, while there was nothing wrong with winner taking 60 and loser taking 40, there was nothing wrong with 50/50 either

hopkins knows roy has skills too

[ButlerBoxing]

one word......no, hopkins would do on a lesser scale what calzaghe did to him (because he throws a lot less punches)

[Jim Jeffries]

Hopkins would put a serious hurt on Roy if they fought today. At least this fight makes more sense than the Trinidad one.
