    If Haye demolishes Ruiz, will B-Hop "lose interest" in a fight?

    Say Haye batters Ruiz around the ring, and stops him in about the 5th round, will Bernard still be eager to test his mettle against the Hayemaker?

    No way, no how. Hopkins will not step in the ring with Haye for any amount of money even if Haye struggles with Ruiz.

      probably depends on how well hopkins does against roy jones too.

      If he destroys jones, maybe it installs more confidence and the belief he can still beat anyone.

      If he struggles, maybe he starts to believe he really is old.

        Ruiz got destroyed in his prime by Toney years ago. Ruiz would lose to Hopkins.

          Hopkins is what, 76 years old? After Ruiz, supposing Haye is victorious, which he probably will be, then there's the ordered rematch with the jolly green Valuev, and then the winner of the the elimination bout between Chagaev and Meehan.
          By the time Haye is availible, Hopkins will be what? 102?

          Seriously!!, I don't think B-Hop was serious, it was a kind of name dropping thing fighters do to keep their name in circulation!

            Bhop should have no interest in Haye at all. He isn't winning that fight. Haye KO's him in bad fashion.
