Comments Thread For: Danny Green Calls Bernard Hopkins To Issue Challenge

[DigitalBeast]

I bet you Hopkins picks him instead of Dawson.

May be. It would also be better for him, to get up to heavy more gradually. Why jump into hot water, instead of warming it up gradually, and seeing if you can take it?

OMG this clown thinks he can hang with EX now??? Just cause you beat a shell of once p4p great, doesn't mean you are relevent all of the sudden. BHop would make this guy look silly. No chc in hell this ever happens.

Thank you. Rep given. But, as I see it, Jones simply got caught. I don't think he'd dominate Jones. Lewis got dropped too. He wasn't done. I'd like to see Green give Roy a rematch. Not sure if Roy wants it, but I'd pick him to beat Green. Same outcome is possible, but Green also tried to finish a staggered Jones, and couldn't, in that time. I think it would be a good fight.

green beat sum1 with a dodgey chin which has been known since 2003 no biggy he aint a legend should fight mundine again hopkins aint goin to oz not a chance

[montevideo]

power is useless when you don't land nothing
Pavlik had the power
and I don't consider Green being better than Pavlik
so.......

i can tell u the difference betwean pav and green, pav waded around the ring like a sad puppy, he didnt adjust adapt or react to what was going on, hes a passive aggressive he usually gets away with it because of his lack of fear, he eventually lands and lands hard, with most fighters that is enough, but not the calibre of tech expertise of hopkins. and there is the big difference danny also has no fear and has 1 punch ko in both hands but hes has a driving determination and single minded intensity and focus to purely kill and hurt. hes comes straight in and cant be discouredged. when he faught mundine he was raw and too tight and angry. he has evolved from a daylight killer to a stalker a much smarter and cagier fighter. he has developed a spring loaded slip and good head movement, it dosnt matter what b hop does he can in no way break dannys will to win and this is what boxing is about. pavlik seemed to hav no will. there is no way danny would beat b hop 10 yrs ago.b hop would get pulped by 3 of the best cruisers. adamek etc he should stay away from danny green. hes legit. iget no joy from seeing legends get beat by inferior but stronger fighters, i hate it.
ill hav a big told u so wrapped and ready. its not that dannys better than pav its that hes willing to brawl like a pittbull, theres no way he will let go once hes up close and on top.

Truth is, Hopkins has been a cherry picker since his Victory over Trinidad. He fight opponents that have the right style for him. and everytime he faces the wrong style for him, he losses or gets a questionable decision. (taylor,Calzaghe,Wright)

Sure, bring it to the States and challenge the ex

gday dig, your right i was thinking th e exact same thing. jones got caught but thres no (just). i was pissed off with jones why did he let green get so close.so early before settling in.. danny dosnt deserve jones scalp. i was thinking this crap because jones is one of my heroes, and deserves better but fact is danny connected behind the ear anywhere around the back of the head effects the legs. boxers have become parraplegic directly because of back head punches. a freak punch yes but he DID dominate jones. what a **** outcome freak punch short fight nothing proved
but to the victor go thhe spoils.a rematch is needed to giv jones another chance to prove himself but would he giv one to green? if green lost.as for green not fin off. jones had his arms wrapped super tight round his head and was not responding to greens punches i mean seriously as soon as jones takes his hands away from his face he would hav got smashed again and just like jones danny didnt get to prove that either. if jones thinks he can beat danny ,i mean jones would know better than any of us wouldnt he? and he did not ask for a rematch what does that tell u. if he could he would. if jones did want a rematch i would believe also, who would doubt jones the great but that is based on emotion not fact. if only jones could go on winning forever and b hop too and pac and ali and joe lewis etc i believe what i saw.

Green the IBO clown trying 2 fight another old guy that is nearly finished his career

Hopkins is a classic fight pick for Green; goos reputation. Almost finished his career. Naturally lighter and no real power. If Hopkins had a few recent KO losses (like most of Greens opponents) than Hopkins would be perfect for Green, as thats the kind of guy Green loves to spin to his audience is a real risk. My buddies in OZ reckon all the rednecks there are brainwashed into thinking Green KO'd a prime Roy Jones. None of the Ozzy papers (or Greens articles that he dictates to the West Australian) even mention RJJ was 5 losses for his last 7 fights & went into the ring to fight Green not even sweaty - meaning RJJ didnt come to fight. Funny thing is they gave Green a city parade for winning an IBO fight where RJJ lay down. They even get the stakes wrong as all the papers are saying Green wont the IBO belt by beating Green - but Green already had the cereal box title belt before the scam fight anyway. Green should call out Chad Dawson or Adamek - guys withg real titles that can fight. Otherwise **** off green, you may have control of the media in Ozzland, but the people that know what youre doing are tired of your ****

As much as I'd like to see Green fight Hopkins down under, I don't think it will happen. Hopkins has made himself sound rather silly with some of his comments, and I don't see him changing tack to accept Green's challenge, let alone so far outside his comfort zone.

I think it would be a competitive fight. The wily old dog v a hungry power puncher. I don't buy that it would end in a Pavlik like schooling. Green is big, stong and hungry for the win.

There would be good money for Hopkins to come to Australia to fight, so that needn't be an issue. I don't blame Green for calling him out. It's his moment in the sun and the time to take advantage of that is now, whilst the Jones victory is still fresh in everybody's minds.
