Schaefer: "HBO Has No Interest In Hopkins-Adamek"

[Adamantium]

Adamek has stated numerous times he is willing to drop to 200 where he is the TRUE CHAMPION. Hopkins has stated numerous times he would like to enhance his legacy by winning another title at a higher weight. Only thing is he realised Adamek is a natural born killer and shat his pants and is now making all kinds of excuses not to make the fight.

Ademek and his manager openly chased the fight, but BHop wasn't interested. In order to 'hide' the fact that he likes smaller guys, Bhop has to call out the bigger guys from time to time, of course he never intends to fight any of them.

Why is HBO not interested in Adamek-Hopkins? A boxing guy has to take over for Ross Greenburg.

HBO needs to get rid of Ross Greenburg.

It was Greenburg who brought Max Kellerman and Lennox Lewis on board a few years ago, HBO should replace them and perhaps bring back George Foreman.

I don't mind Max, but Lewis well thats another story.

Dawson fight has to happen. Either that or retire Hopkins.

The shunning of Adamek is a DISGRACE. It's clearly on race grounds. Adamek is WAY, WAY, WAY, WAY more of a fighter than Dawson could ever hope to be. He is far more exciting and a multi weight champion and contender, what else do they want? Oh wait, I know - they want his skin to be black. That's why they are considering Paul Williams - a 147/154 lbs guy who happens to be considered for a 175+lbers' next fight (Hopkins!). How does that work?

IT'S A DISGRACE.

Bute and Green? What have they done? Nothing, Green is a bum with some power and Bute is a paper champ who has beaten noone of note.

Hopkins needs to grow some balls and fight Adamek or the insanely boring Dawson.

Yet, Adamek was completely dominated by Dawson

Haha, why is Dawson immediately discarded? It's ridiculous. The only two people HBO would be interested in are Dawson and Bute. Bute is a BAD fighter while Dawson is a WCB fighter. I don't see how they're going to get more money to fight Bute, besides for the gate. But throw Dawson/Hopkins in AC, that'll sell some tickets.

Isn't Bute a smw? If Hopkins wants a belt, why not go for a cw belt?

Because it means he can pick on a small guy again.

lmao This is the fight which will most probably happen next.

Other than a Haye fight, Adamek would be the best option and probably the best fight. HBO disappoints me .

people get caught up with the adamek is exciting bs.......mofo doesnt throw more than 20 punches a round if he aint landing good.....and better believe hopkins will circle and potshot all night long if he wants to win....it would be a very boring fight.....
