    Hopkin says johnson next after b-fighter eastman

    according to an article on *********.com by karl freitag hopkins wants to make history and win the lightheavy weight belt from glen johnson after he glides thru eastman.
    wow for some reason i thought maybe he was going to take a look at the bussiness side (gbp) of boxing after his 20th undefiet.
    you think he has more than a chance against glendoff?

    he gaved a one-sided beating to johnson for 11 rounds until the ref stppoed it, i dont know if Hopkins can make 175, but i have confidence hes going to kick johnsons ass again

      good matchup for Hopkins. I would give him less of a chance against Tarver becuase of styles. Against Johnson, even at 175, a very winable fight for Nard. I would make him (Hopkins)the favorite

        it's ok IMO. he's been in that division for too long, he should be trying to dethrone those light heavyweights...

          Sometimes underestimating opponents is a dangerous thing. Bernard Hopkins is definitely a good fighter, otherwise he never could have all the major belts in the middleweight division. Glenn Johnson had a terrfic last year and he has proven to be a tough opponent for any figther. If Bernard will win the fight, it will be based on a majority decision.

              Bernard run from tito? Yeah right, Bernard put an ass whooping on that guy so hard and won every round. You are only as good as your last fight and Tito looked tremendous against Joppy and looked the same against Mayorga. When you are a slugger and can get a guy to go in their and slug it out with you, obviously you are going to look good but when a guy neutralizes your offense and takes everything away with you, you look like ****.

              Tito is a slugger more than a boxer and Bernard is a boxer, I favor Bernard at 40 over a 30 year old Tito anyday.

              Now, I have to go whip some ass....Have a nice day everybody.

                then why would he move up when he can fight and beat tito again for a big payday without leavign the divsion and takign a chance at losing? need i remind u B hop as a light heavy is 0-1. the guy is old and declining i dotn think he makes it past eastmam. still makes no since for him to move up ya he beat johnson before but that was in middle wieght. hopkins is now 40 years old moving up to fight a guy who KO RJJ when B hop lost to him lol
