How bad would it look for BHOP he loses to an old washed up Roy?

[KJB]

Its not a fight he wants to lose. It would hurt his legacy, end his career on a losing note, and would be TERRIBLE for his ego.
That said, Hopkins is older than Roy. Getting old over night is a lot easier at 45 than some people think. If Hopkins is in form there is no way he loses this, really, but he could show up old.
