A 45 year old man is our last line of defense.

If Hopkins was 3 years younger and could easily make 168, I'd have picked him to win this entire thing.

He probably still can make 168, most of his fights have been at 170, and it would be a one time thing against the winner of this.

If he JUST fights the winner, yeah I'd pick him to win, most likely.

By then, however, he might be 47-48 years old. This is a 2-3 year tourney.

160 would be a serious killer for him. He would go back to having the stamina issues he had against Taylor. 168 wouldn't be a problem for B-Hop, I know that much.

I meant 168, that would be easy more or less.

Funny how you guys want a Light Heavy fighting Super Middleweights. If Hopkins would of been a Super Middle so to say, he would get exposed for the cherry picking fraud that he is.

You should be ashamed in thinking that a 45 year LHW who spent most of his career as a MW could actually cherry pick a SMW.

Oh ok, I did have a feeling you meant that.

Ignore the guy. he has been ona downslide ever since Pacquuaio sonned Oscar, and Mosley ate Margaritos food.

The same style B-Hop used against Winky would work on AA. Difference is, AA ain't no where near as active as Winky.

The difference will be that AA could carry 170 way better than what Winky did. The difference would be that AA would have more than what Winky did. The difference would be that AA would would be stronger than what Winky was.

Kessler is taylor made for B-Hop.

Why is everybody underrating Kessler? Even underrating AA I don't get it. Kessler is 10x times the fighter at 170 than what Pavlik was. Kessler is 10x the fighter at 170 than what Winky was. Kessler might not be as good as Calzaghe at 175. But, B-Hop is a couple years older now. So we don't know what might happen.

I am not saying Hopkins will not win. But, I doubt it would be as easy. I think Kessler and AA would give B-Hop a good fight. And, the end one fighter will win a very close decision that everybody would complain about.

Hopkins? Joe's been there and worn the t-shirt...knockdown or not. No European would get credit for beating Hopkins...all we would hear is "Hopkins was shot...blah blah"
