Hopkins has the most delusional fans. He is not going 12 with Haye.

    It's not like Haye is a prime Mike Tyson.

    Hopkins has arguably the best defense in the game. He's crafty. he knows how to not get hit flush. I mean seriously, when does hopkins ever get hit hard? You'd have to go back 10 years or so.

    Hopkins would smother haye and use lateral movement to stay away from haye's big punches. Remember, hopkins doesn't allow his opponents to set up their shots and he certainly doesn't allow them to load up on their shots either.

    It's very, very hard to hit hopkins flush, let alone knock him out. Even at this old age.

    ****, James Toney would go the distance against Haye even at this stage. Why? For the same reasons, Toney has great defense.

        yeah I did watch the fight. Hopkins knew what ornelas brought to the table as they were sparring partners. He was trying to stand in front of him and be entertaining.

        He wouldn't fight that way against Haye or Adamek.

              I think this is just another case of Hopkins talking about fighting someone, when he wouldn't go near signing the contract. Same thing he did with Adamek and Dawson. After he beats up on Roy, he might retire IMO. That OR, fight his final fight against Green. He doesn't have that many options.

                He wont ****ing dare trust me..

                He is using this as an excuse to duck Dawson.. i mean seriously Hopkins is facing a guy who got ****ing dominated and KO round 1 in 2 of his last 3 fights.. dude needs to save face.

                He knows he wont beat Dawson either he is too old and lacks stamina and would be holding and faking low blows like anything. It would be the Calzaghe fight all over a boring terrible fight.

                Wasn't he getting hit flush by some borderline bum in his last fight too..?

                The thing is Haye don't even need to land alot all it needs is 1 punch, he had a ****ing 9000 pound Gorrila on dream street from 1 punch, but Hopkins has a great chin compared to Valeuv? and that's not even factoring in Haye having to reach up to hit Valeuv.

                    You have said rather muppety things in the past, but this post expresses my feelings on the matter entirely.
