      Just for fun though, it's interesting to note he's been in the ring with Bernard Hopkins before, as well as Oscar De La Hoya, Mikkel Kessler, Julio Gonzalez and Shane Mosley:

      Oh, well if he's been in the ring with them.. well ****.... what more credibility do you need?

        I'm not about to have a debate on Enriqo Suaveeee`...

        I'm just saying... bernard could of smashed Tarvoris real quick and snatched a belt.

        Could of fought a top 15 LHW at least.

          Doesn't Versus have one date left? They could give that to Hopkins Ornelas.

          Also I think it would have been tight if Hopkins fought Erdei, but no way does Erdei take that risk.

                Tavoris Cloud is NOT a tune up for no man (he would knock jones the F out, imo).

                  Hopkins should have just fought Woods. I am sure he would unretire for a payday. The man is painting houses ffs.

                    There is no money available on that date to bring Hopkins together with another big name fighter.

                    I don't see why this is hard to understand.

                    Either he fights a no name guy in December or he does not fight at all until Jones.
