It made the papers in England with a few quotes from Hopkins so looks pretty certain.

i think eastman will try to knock hopkins out and hopkins will just outbox eastman lopsided decision 117-111

I've seen a lot of arguements why Eastman was always being left out . . . now if this is true this is his chance to make history. This is got to be the fight of his life.

A shot at GREATNESS.

True but he had a chance and lost to William joppy come on joppy.

Although Eastman deserves his shot, I think that Hopkins is much too skilled for him and will win an easy UD.

only way i see eastman winning is setting a fast pace and
sticking to it..
and since when has howard set a fast pace.

id love eastman to win as im from the uk but i dont see it.

bet the fight doesnt come off either, especially with big
name opponents delahoya and trinidad waiting for another shot
