    the hell you smoking...hopkins didn't start throwing punches in either fight until the 9th round...taylor had him back on his heels feinting and running...

          When did B-Hop's loss to Calzaghe become so widely accepted as "controversial"? I'll tell you when- it's after the Pavlik fight. As if him doing well against KP made people revise history and look at the Calzaghe fight differently.

            I was rooting and yelling for Bernard in the Joe fight, I wanted him to win really bad.

            He lost.. and clearly.

              If Roy beats Hopkins, then which one of them was really completely shot after all?

              This changes most weeks so I just want to know?

                If Roy beats Hopkins, then it just proves it to be a bad style for hopkins and/or he's 45 with a 17 month layoff.... meanwhile Roy will have had his 4th fight in 12 months by december, the most active hes ever been in his career.

                  So both of them would be completely shot? No neither of them?


                  Neither of them were ever completely shot? What, who said that? Outrageous....

                    If Hopkins really feels he has to do this, better now than later I guess. Jones is only getting older as well.

                    Anyway, as long as he fights Adamek and/or the winner of Dawson-Johnson, I'll be pretty okay with him making a big payday against Jones on the side.

                      What?! they are both past prime, roy more so then HOP... but a 17month layoff and a 45 yr old bday can make hops past primeness more evident.

                      Stop seeking credit for the Joe wins
