Comments Thread For: Hopkins: Pascal First, Then Bute and Super Six Winner

[UglyPug]

i ****s with hopkins now all the sudden - i no longer see him as a racist, but simply a man on a mission. he takes this fight game seriously and passionately - lives his life according to old school principles of pugilism. i don't think he believes in some of the race baiting comments he makes, just part of who he is and i respect that.

Hopkins will be a big step down for Bute after all these tough fights in a row, Brinkley, Magee, and Mendy, then out of nowhere Bernard Hopkins. I just can't see it, I can't see Bute taking on such a soft touch like Hopkins. After Mendy, I see him fighting some tougher fighter like Aaron Pryor Jr.

if those are really his plans then im rooting for him to win even moreso against pascal

Froch vs B-Hop get er done..I really wonder why B-Hop never mentions Dawsons name??Is his style that bad for B-Hop or does he just not like him??

I'm curious to know Bernanrd Hopkins thoughts on Shane Mosley.

It's because he doesn't see anything in Dawson he can exploit. I hope Hopkins does what he says. Unless it's already in a contract stating he has to fight Dawson next I see him beating Pascal then vacating just to fight either Bute or the Super 6 winner and try to get another belt in another weight class. Hopkins still doesn't want any part of Dawson, it would be a good fight though IMO.

Should two-division champion, Bernard Hopkins, of Philadelphia, dethrone WBC light heavyweight champion, Jean Pascal, of Canada, on May 21 before Pascal's home town fans at Bell Centre in Montreal, Hopkins said that his deal with HBO includes three more fights, including a possible fall bout opposite former WBC titlist Chad Dawson.

war hopkins!

i hope he beats pascal i will surely be staying up to see that but i dont think he has it in him to beat the super six winner...bute maybe he has a chance but i reckon if he beats pascal then have maybe 1 or 2 defences max then retire on top

hopkins doesn't wanna fight dawson because dawson brings nothing to the table. hopkins wants the glory, and the money of course.

Even after the Pascal fight??Dawson look like he was sleeping until the 11 rd..I would wanna see that fight..I love B-Hop and think Dawson is skilled..But I would like to see Froch B-Hop more if I could be honest..

you guys haven't even read the article obviously

it is written that Hopkins is looking at Bute and Super six winner ONCE he has dealt with Dawson

and that is what is interesting about this : Hopkins is not only looking past Pascal, but also looking past Dawson and Bute

Hopkins is just looking too far ahead, and I believe it will blow up in his face, no way he can beat all those guys, sloppy Pascal was tailor made for him, Dawson and Bute are better fighter who can actually box
