    I find it more ridiculous that they expect people to pay 750 for a ringside seat. Crazy.

      Even as Hopkins fan I wouldn't pay much to see this fight live but $750 ringside is a bargain compared to Trinidad-Jones which I believe might have been upwards of $1500 (face value).

          because he sucks now, because he refuses to give fans their money's worth, because he doesn't want to fight a dangerous opponent like Chad Dawson.

            Pascal would knock Hopkins out, it wouldn't even be a contest.

              i agree with this , hopkin's supporters will say that he's a 45 y/o man give him a break etc. , yet most still claim he's world class and hopkins does too , so does that mean hopkins will get credit if he beats a world class fighter but if he's beaten he was just an old man ? IMO thats bull and the rj fight is just a new low

                  He's been getting advice from Joe Calzaghe instead of Glen Johnson.

                    I'd like to see Hopkins-Cunningham.

                      Or better yet, how about Hopkins-Chambers? They are both from PA also.
