If Jones is fighting a tough opponent his own size, why can't Hopkins?

    Way better skill level then caballero?????? Are you joking? Cloud has terrible defense and doesn't have that good of punching technique.

    Also normally all the guys you listed are facing great competition. They are smaller fighters they are fighting, but they make up for it in skill and it makes it a great fight. The only unappealing fight was JMM-Mayweather was because that was too big of a jump in weight and JMM never proved himself in that weight class either.

    Pacquiao, Trinidad, and others have proved themselves at that weight class save for Martinez, but Martinez isn't making as big of a jump as JMM did.

    Oh and Kessler and Abraham, though smaller, are a lot better then Cloud is. And proven. If Dawson can make 168 to fight them, he should. They are better challenges then Cloud, who you are massively overrating.
    Kessler's style is a lot more robotic than Cloud's and he throws no body punches. Abraham is a pretty good body puncher when he wants to be, but he too is very stationary and not good at cutting off the ring on top of his horrible work rate. Those two guys are more limited than people think and Chad would pick them apart. They are the best guys in the super six though. I think both Cloud and Dawson would beat them.

      Hopkins is fighting a blown up Middleweight, who isnt even in the top 10 Middelweights and has been defeated by the likes of journymen Sam Reese(18-12), and a washed up Bronco Mckart, in Hopkins hometown.

      Hopkins should of fought someone more dangerous who will give him more of a challage, I would of liked him to fight Sakio Bika.
      He's only fighting him cuz of 4 million.

          Cloud is another Jeff Lacy waiting to happen. He's didn't even beat Clinton Woods more impressive then Antonio Tarver did. He stopped Julio Gonzalez, but Gonzalez is old as **** too.

          Kessler's style is robotic, but he's a better robot who would destroy Cloud. Abraham is one of the best power punchers in the game. He has a lot better defense then cloud does too. These both definitely give Dawson a better fight then Cloud does.

            Props to ATG Roy Jones for going to Australia to fight a dangerous opponent who's recently been fighting at cruiserweight!

            However, Bernard Hopkins is fighting in the US against a middleweight journeyman. :gay:

            Why? Why didn't he choose to fight someone who's his own size and as dangerous as Danny Green?
            How come jones has fought nothing but bums for the last 7 years?

              He's not making history by winning the IBO belt. Are you serious. That belt is imaginary.

                Props to Roy Jones Jr for being courageous enough to fight in a foreign country! Hopkins has been afraid to leave the US ever since he was knocked down TWICE in a draw with Segundo Mercado in a fight in South America.
                You are a dumb ****.

                  I don't care. These guys are both on their last legs. Long as they rematch as planned, the last steps they take to get their are fine by me.

                    It's just a warm-up fight.

                      He beat Woods more impressively than Tarver did, because Tarver never hurt him. How is this guy Jeff Lacy when he is a good body puncher and a good combo puncher to boot? Abraham and Kessler's resume aren't all that impressive either. Taylor was done and the best guy on Kessler's resume is Librado Andrade.
