HOPKINS: People want to me to go up to 190 pounds to fight "superman" and be basically a sacrificial lamb but these same people will do their best to keep Oscar De La Hoya, Shane Mosley, and Ricardo Mayorga among a few, away from me. Why don't these people want those guys to fight me?
HOPKINS:they want me to but on damn near 35 pounds to go up to 190 pounds and fight Superman. Hell, I haven't made 160 pounds in a while (1-31-1998 vs. Simon Brown was the last time) so for people to think that I could come in at 190 and be able to fight effectively at that weight would be crazy.
