Hopkins-Williams Possible at 168? Awaits Pavlik

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

It seems there is a small chance that a fight between Bernard Hopkins and Paul Williams could happen at 168 - if the right money is the table I'm sure. Williams' promoter Dan Goossen says Williams could fight as high as 168 but there is no way that his fighter will meet Hopkins at 170-pounds. Williams has weighed 157 for his two recent bouts at the middleweight limit. Facing Hopkins at 168 would already be a lot to ask of Williams, 170 is too much and too soon. Richard Schaefer of Golden Boy Promotions told Morales that Hopkins is unable to get below 170. It was only a few months ago that Hopkins vowed to come down to 168 to fight Carl Froch. [details]

If it happens and Bernard schools P.Will everyone will say Paul was overrated...

I just hope it doesn't have the same effect it may have on Pavlik cuz I like P.Will

[street bully]

I much rather see Hopkins tale adamecls soul.

I rather see Hopkins own Chad Dawson...Adamek aint all that to me

Paul is leagues better than Kelly. B-Hop would never do to Paul what he did to Pavlik. I still don't like this fight for him though. He's better off waiting on Pavlik to stop being a *****.

[Heru]

Hopkins won't school P-Will, if Paul can stand up to B-Hop's punches, he'll get the upset.

I still want to see Williams fight Pavlik not Hopkins though. If they fight, Bernard will have to stink it up to do his thing, Williams-Pavlik is guaranteed action.

Bhop this wont be like fighting Pavlik who is just a 1-2 puncher. Pwill will give him fits. Hopkins is just talking he will not get in the ring with Dawson or PWill.

P Will needs tp slow the **** down and stay in the lower weights 154 or 160 max.
If he fights Hopkins at 168 and wins, hes gonna really struggle to get fights at LMW and MW.

He should clean up 154, imo, then move to 160 in a year.

hopkins to big for P.will. i hope the P.will/pavlik fights still happens though

This I call a good boxer, Paul Williams is willing to fight anybody out there. When you are choosing people for the best P4P you have to keep PW in mind, not Gayweather, which he never offer nothing excitement in boxing.
