Could Bernard Hopkins Become A Heavyweight Champion? (Video)

[djtmal]

He would have at least somewhat of a chance against David Haye. Obviously the Klits are too big but David Haye I believe could be frustrated with bernard's style & craftiness and if Haye isn't able to KO him he could lose on points. Crazier things have happened.

you hopkins ballickers kill me....hopkins publicly claimed that he was looking to fight the winner of johnson/dawson or adamek, when in actuality he was negotiating a fight with shotroy jones all along...now shotroy has bit the dust, and still no talk of hopkins/dawson....lmmfao...

you can't get a hopkins ballicker to mention hopkins and dawson in the same sentence, but now you want us to believe hopkins has a chance to beat an above average heavyweight who isn't making movies with stallone between fights? lmmfao....

the fighter who made a career out of fighting midgets now wants to fight bigger men at damn near 45 years old? lol...either a chemical imbalance or senility is settling in with nard and the nardettes....

Oh you're the guy that was saying Hopkins is "ducking roy jones" and he is scared to fight jones and always has been and will never fight him. then hopkins agrees to fight him and now you change your tune once again lmao.

Dawson had a total of 14 fans at his last three fights. Why would a 45 year old man who is a hall of fame fighter, an all time great, fight Dawson for little money when he could fight three other guys that would make him a lot more money, not too mention would increase his legacy even further if he were to win?

More importantly, why do you even care so much about what Hopkins decides to do at this point in his career? Most men that boxed are nowhere near the level he is at at 45 years of age and are either long ago retired, or totally shot and getting beat up like Holyfield. The man could have literally retired 5 years ago and still would have been a hall of fame fighter, an all time great and one of the great middleweight champs of all time.

No. Haye ain't that good, but at 44 Bhop would lose to him.

[larry x]

no..he's to old ..both the klits punish him and hayes to fast and powerful

[GoogleMe]

These guys are so STONED! Seriously, he should try cruiserweight before HW. Haye would eat him alive. I think Haye is just a good boxer as Bernard, just way stronger!

[PittyPat]

Against previous weak champions like Chagaev, Maskaev, Peter or Ruiz, he'd have a good chance. Against the Klitschkos and Haye, none.

[larry x]

hopkins beats no top 10 heavyweight..lets be real here people he's ****ing 44 years old and isnt the fastest fighter in the world..

[Ramamaiden]

2-3 years ago he would have had a good chance because there were some beltholders very beatable.
Right now, he has 0 chance against the Klitschkos, and a very very slim chance against Haye imho.

[Pullcounter]

i don't think hops chance are good.

lol... hopkins is garbage in the middle of july....

only reason why hopkins agreed to fight jones is because jones called him out on radio....he had to save face....hopkins was looking for another midget to fight...even before calzaghe pimpslapped both of them, hopkins was offering jones the 60-40 slave contract with 25% going to his boy oscar off the top....he had no intentions of fighting roy without having the deck stacked imo...believe me nard breathed a sigh of relief when he saw jones get ko'd by a cruiserweight...

i don't care if dawson had 2 fans in his last three fights, hopkins doesn't pull in much more numbers wise, and i'm quite sure if you were to do a poll right now, hopkins vs. dawson would be THE fight @ 175...i don't know why hopkins ballickers think nard is such a big ppv draw, his opposition always brought the money....i'm quite sure hbo championship boxing or espn can find a slot for another hopkins snoozefest....this time against dawson, a fighter his size with some talent....

i see you've been sniffing that crazy glue again, if you think nard is an atg...great middleweight? eh i guess you can give the scaled down lightheavy credit for dominating weak middleweights, but all time great?....lmmfao
