    Bernard has bigger things on his plate besides a SHOT to **** Roy.

    Adamek is a legacy fight, Dawson is a legacy fight.

    Even if Bernard avenged his loss to Roy it would mean nothing because Roy is SHOT.

        please explain why this would be any different.
        he did beat SLOW flat footed Pavlik @ 170..his best win in years..yes..but he hugged winky and Tarver to death and lost to Taylor twice

        B Hop is all smoke and mirrors....

        we all know even @ 40 RJJ skill for skill is better than B Hop now

        B Hop has made a living on smaller fighters....

        if RJJ was fighting JMW's and MW's you guys would be crucifying him..but B Hop does it and its GREAT?

          more like 75-25 hopkins with a 25% tribute to hopkins buttbuddy oscar...

              Jones>Bhops resume anyway too the guy who said Jones hasn't fought anyone
              HBO (from what its looking like) is willing to put up the kind of money hopkins wants against adamek and hopkins gets his nice 60/40 split. HBO hasn't been thrilled of the idea of *****g up the kind of money involved for a jones vs hopkins PPV event being that they have a budget and all. I'm going by what ESPN has reported.

                Roy is in no position to be calling shots like that... what has he done to make an offer to bhop like that?

                You have to prove yourself in the ring, Bernard has, and Roy hasnt.

                Bernard deserves a gauranteed split of 60%

                    lol it's like everything you're told is forgotten within hours. Hopkins IS his own promoter he is a partner with Golden Boy and President of Golden Boy East. Of course Hopkins/Golden boy gets a cut. ::smh:: Jones does the same exact **** as he is his own promoter but obviously Golden boy is much, much bigger than Square Circle and golden boy would do the vast majority of the promoting if this fight went down.

                      Bernards legacy isn't over until he is officially retired.

                      You realize you can ADD ON to a legacy right?

                      There isnt a set stone that you reach, and then you just have a "legacy".
