    Because Green is rubbish imo. Hopkins would get good money from it but as far as his legacy is concerned, it does jack ****.

    I wanna see a Dawson fight or an Adamek fight (thats if Adamek returns to Cruiser).

      Green is nuts if he thinks he should get anything over 40, but I'm glad he's so stubborn. I didn't want this fight to happen anyway

          Green's greed should be thanked as it inadvertently saved us from a crap fight. Sorry two crap fights as RJJ is clearly retired, he just don't know it!

            for a dawson fight, i can see them offering less then 3 million...adamek packs 'em in here in newark @ the prudential center, so adamek may ask for a 50/50 on nard just like green did...hopkins may get a reality check regarding his current market value...fights are too boring and they don't result in ko's...

              me too, but he may price himself out of that fight just to avoid dawson...

                hopkins surely doesn't need this clown........ there are fights out there which are good for his legacy, not this one, this one just popped up out of the fact that green got a win over roy jones............ certainly not enough to catapult him into a 50-50 split with hopkins.

                too many choices for hopkins out there that would only help his legacy, a fight with green is more like a revenge fight for jones in a sense. at least that is the perception in some circles.

                bottom line, hopkins holds the cards, not green...............
                why are boxers so dumb!..who gives a **** what the other guy earns...work out what is good for you and be happy with it...

                now Hopkins will earn 0 dollars, yes zero dollars. what a fool!

                  i'm quite sure he's thinking he can get more than 3 million in the states for adamek or dawson, and i really don't see that happening...

                      I think this has a lot to do with the fact that Roy came out in the last week and said he would Gaurantee Bernard the first 3 million, and split the rest after that.
