    but who knows dude!
    I wouldn't mind seeing a Hopkins-Johnson rematch if Johnson beats Chad in their second fight. But I'm not going crazy about it either. I think there's better fights out there for Johnson that are just as lucrative and more winnable than a Hopkins rematch. He could move down to 168, fight Bute and let the tourney play out. And of course hope he doesn't get robbed like the fighter in your sig did. And then there's always Adamek for the Cruserweight title. I'm a big fan of Johnson and I thought he got robbed in the Dawson fight. But even so, he isn't beating Hopkins in a rematch. It'll be more competitve than the first fight, but his style is tailor made for B-Hop and he'll lose a decision.

        A Hopkins-Johnson rematch is the right fight for 175 supremacy if Johnson gets past Dawson in the second fight though.

          He might because he respects Johnson mainly because of the respect Johnson has shown b-hop ever since their first fight so many years ago.

          Johnson is a work horse like hopkins, doesn't party, works his ass off in the gym, been married forever, etc. They are similar in many ways, which is why both are still effective over the age of 40.

          On the other hand, I can see him choosing retirement because Hopkins has stated he's only interested in fights that motivate him and I don't see how much motivation hopkins can get for fighting johnson again.

            you a fan of his?
            Big fan!
            I love his passion for the sport. And for the most part his takes on fighters are on point -- he seems to be very unbiased on unswayed by other media outlets.

            That's actually a pretty old picture of him but as you can see he still has his fedora and his cigar

                  depends on the money. hopkins will want it all and johnson probably won't give it to him.
