    Does Hopkins need to fight a boxer out of their natural weight zone?

    I guess it's the norm for Hopkins, padding his resume some more.

      But still, why can't he face Dawson or someone else in the LHW division? Why pick on a CW/HW?
      500K US is a lot less than that. And lol at pick on. Though Adamek was recently a LHW, and Hopkins seems to have his eyes set on two guys that, though they can hit and come to fight, aren't exactly the best boxers, Adamek and Froch.

      Anyway I see Hopkins coming in around 190, Adamek coming in his usual 199 or so, and Bernard putting on a boxing clinic. Unless he ages overnight.

        You make such idiotic posts when it comes to Hopkins. Me personally, I think Adamek is a more dangerous fight for Hopkins than Dawson is based on styles. Hopkins wouldn't be able to clinch Adamek as easily like he would Dawson and Chad has a weaker chin than Adamek does even though he is a more skilled boxer. Adamek came close to beating Dawson at the end of their fight and had him in big trouble and fighting to preserve his wide lead. And your double standards are pathetic. You say Hopkins fights small guys, but when he goes up to fight a bigger and stronger guy you criticize him for it. Get the fuck out of here with that bull****.

          I hope Hopkins won't get away with the same bull**** again-laying on the defensive and just throwing counterpunches throughout the fight and then leaving with a UD given to him by ****sucking judges.

            Because you don't like em. I should say the same thing about Hopkins fans then right??? If you don't like my opinion, then don't read it.

            Adamek isn't more dangerous, Adamek isn't Joe Calzaghe where it could provide problems for Hopkins.

            Yes I do talk **** about Hopkins fighting smaller guys. But I will also talk **** when he cherry picks. I rather have Hopkins fight THE GUY IN HIS DIVISION TO SEE WHO'S THE BEST IN IT.

              I think you are giving Adamek way to much credit. Hopkins is an all time great and still arguably one of the best fighters in the world. Adamek is a good fighter but he isn't anything fresh or special in the boxing world, dime a dozen. Hopkins wouldn't beat him as bad as he beat Pavlik but he would probably win 8 or 9 rounds.

                Ain't Adamek talkin bout goin up to HW soon? Bhop would have to get him to come in at the low 190s or sumthin. I don't think it'll happen at this point.

                  Thanks for posting, I hadn't seen this yet. I've really been hoping this fight would get made and I'm glad it's back on the table.

                    for once i agree with you, he's terribly underrated,

                    and this fight wont happen,

                    Adamek is going to HW.

                      I hope he doesnt wait that long to fight, either he should fight soon or retire.
