[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

If he wants to keep that belt, he'd better stay clear of getting in a ring with BHOP.

Why? Is Hopkins bringing a gun to the ring?

For the love of god Bernard, retire already.

For the love of god Bernard, retire already.

Why, when he can snatch this dude's belt before he realizes what happened. Like taking candy from a baby?
Free Money!

What happened to Nathan Cleverly? I thought he wanted Hopkins regardless of whether he lost to Dawson or not.

As far as Shumenov, I can't blame him. No reward, and too much risk. Unless Hopkins is willing to forfeit his entire share for a chance of another Title shot, there is no incentive.

Hop is old...... But he ain't that old

Agree 100% that there is no point in him fighting Hopkins. Shumenov is being respectful and saying no, nothing else. No trash talk, no bull*@@*, nothing. Sounds to me like he is making it clear that he has no plans to fight him. Now if Cleverly would just step up and make a fight with Shumenov happen!!

Cleverly doesn't want to fight Shumenov.
He wants to fight Hopkins.
