Hopkins vs Wright II

[Pullcounter]

Well, from the talks out there I do believe thats his intentions. I mean the fight would undoubtedly sell a hell alot more in Canada then it would in America. Bute is big up their, and with BHOP's name alone. It would make that house sold-out most likely.

And even though you talk badly about the refs in Canada, you can't deny America has just as bad as refs letting BHOP get away with dirty-tactics.

And yes, the ref from the BUTE/ANDRADE fight was a joke. He let Bute hold all night long and fight dirty against Andrade. But in the rematch Bute fought clean. So, Bhop and Bute do have some clinching history.

don't forget, funeka got robbed against guzman.

bhop can't win in canada unless he KOs bute, and even if he does, the ref might not count it as a KO and let bute back into the fight.

BHOP can also win by brutal Headbutt, or is that only in America that counts as a win?

u don't have to worry, the canadian ref will call every foul on bhop.

I want it to be a fair-fight, but I can also see both BHOP and Bute both being dirty in the fight. Both have clinched like crazy in the past with excessive clinching. So, it might even be hard to see who is initiated the clinches, I can't just point fingers at BHOP. Because Bute did it in his first fight against Andrade. And who knows if he plans on ever using those tactics again.

Hopkins by decision, he cracked that code behind Winky's shell defense and exploited the best way Hopkins can with his style. Another way to beat him was of course, what P.Will did and that's throw a 1000 punches, but that's not B-hop's strength.

IMO, that fight was actually a fun scrap, it was an entertaining chess match between two skilled veterans who at that point just haven't been dominated by anybody. Even in their losses, they were close and controversial. BUT you had to have been a Winky or Hopkins fan to find it entertaining, keeping up with who's winning rounds, round after round.

As a general fight fan who's number one priority is, "entertainment value", this wasn't for you, and if you ended up ordering, expecting something better or bigger, then it's your own fault.
