Comments Thread For: Hopkins: I Won't Fight Ward, Even For $15 Million Dollars

[Syf]

Nard gets outquicked and outmuscled by Ward, and his tricks wouldn't work on a cunning opponent like SOG.. He knows it, smart move by Bhop.

....how about 20 million?

At this point, I'll respect whatever B-Hop wants to do or not do.

The only way this fight is boring is the fact that ward is a beast and bhop probably would not win more than a round or two ,but other than that go watch the UFC because clearly you can't appreciate true master technicians

As a boxing fan, I wouldn't say this fight would be boring, and if it ended up being so, I agree with you, it would be because Ward would dominate, only probably losing just a few rounds on the way to a UD.

However, respectively, real quick as an MMA fan, mrlopez's comment doesn't warrant a response such as you saying "watch UFC" because he "can't appreciate true master technicians". UFC doesn't lack those. Just depends on which specific Martial Art they practice and are good at.

At this stage of his career I'm not mad at him for his decision

[kingfaze19]

this is the most blatant duck in boxing history, bhop lost any stripes he earned beating cloud, he sounds like the scariest b*tch on earth. and i thought floyd was a b*tch hopkins is now the undisputed champ at ducking. "not for 15$million" lmaoo

Hopkins has the right to pick his fights at this point
there's no need for him to fight Ward, friends or not
that's a boring fight he'd surely lose
if anything, Hopkins should just retire now, he doesn't need money
Ward shoulda gone up and jumped on Cloud before Hopkins did

[Sake1]

Is this the same Bernard Hopkins that promised the same mother than he'd retire at 40?

Damn. .....

i can understand 1 mil..prob chump change to these guys..but 15 mil? come on now..everyone has their price..

[junior gong]

why you so mad bro...I sense animosity in your post....Ward is the BEST fighter in the world...he beats ANYBODY his size atm....but he aint ****ing his dad up...take that shot and shoot it at yourself...in ya dome!!

Hopkins isnt his dad though, is he? He's just another fighter with a world championship in the weight class above the one he has just cleaned out. That makes him a more than viable opponent.
