Bernard hopkins wants fight with lucian bute

[carlos slim]

from btalk:
I have been thinking about who I would like to fight, if I could make the fight, and the name that came to my mind, because he's a helluva fighter and a good challenge for me, is Lucian Bute. He's fighting Edison Miranda next. I think that would be a fight people would be interested in, especially in his hometown, which is righ outside the United States. My thing is that, they say there's no fights out there for Bernard Hopkins

GL: A fight with you and Bute would certainly be a moneymaker. He's a super middleweight champion, what's the lowest you can go to make the fight happen?

BH: "170 pounds.

smaller guy
white guy

I'd like to see it, and I think Bute beats Hopkins. And Hopkins finally retires, and I don't think it would affect Hopkins career in a negative note, because I think Bute could be something very special in the future. Like most of you, I'm still unsure on Bute. I like watching his nice knockouts but is it because he was fighting the Andrades, Zuniga of the 168 division? I mean those two fighters come forward and can make a counter-puncher who has power look great! His win over Berrios was very beautiful though.

after the Joe Cal. fiasco it seems like B-Hop's targeting all the white boys in boxing(except Wlad and Vitali)

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

Hopkins still fighting smaller man. This **** never changes.

The Catch weight King is back.

[street bully]

Bute doesn't have the offense, and is too open to beat Hopkins, if Hopkins has more to offer than he showed against Jones.

[Grand Champ]

Damn, what does it takes for this man to retire? His fights gets worse by every fight, except the Pavlik fight. Come on Hopkins, time to retire.

[Heru]

HBO offered this fight to him.

I doubt Bute's team would want to fight him though, unless they think he's washed up. Hopkins should retire.

[SN!PER]

I don't care what weight they fight at. If Hopkins can beat Bute at 45, I'd be impressed.
