    Hopkins vs Eastman

    From BBC Sports:

    Hopkins to give Eastman chance

    Bernard Hopkins will give Britain's Howard Eastman a crack at his undisputed middleweight crown on 19 February, according to reports.
    Eastman is the WBC's mandatory challenger but Hopkins is willing to put all four of his belts on the line against the Londoner, says The Sun.

    "Eastman will be a tough fight, although a lot of people are saying it will be an easy option," said Hopkins.

    "What I have seen confirms that Eastman is a true world-class middleweight."

    So this is the big name opponent Hopkins wants for one of his last few fights???

    This is a fight what should have taken place a while ago, but I still favor Hopkins to win..I don't know how, but I think he'll win.

    P.S. That's you in your avatar, if so, how tall are you?

      5'10" - I'll add it to my signature - the guy I'm hitting is about 160 - football player and wrestler.

          I havent seen Eastmen fight, but from what I've heard he seems like a worthy challenger to the title. Hope its a good fight.

                Eastman is good but not good enough. Hopkins by decision.
