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

[artfuL_]

Alot of response to my comments but everyone needs to break it down.

It is very cringeworthy reading Hopkins constantly deny fighting Ward to the point where I labelled it a duck move - pretty harsh, but an overreaction. No doubting the guy is a warrior, but the 2 share no blood (see the Klitschkos) and don't share the same trainer (see Donaire and Garcia), so I was getting sick of hearing the rhetoric.

Saying that if anyone can carefully pick their opponents and play the Mayweather game it has to be Hopkins who has earned his due.

so sharing the same blood is a GOOD reason to not fight somebody...but love and respect is another thing....WOW!!

What a joke, there's actually people here defending BHop's blatant duck of Ward.

Ward is a cool guy.

Did Mary Popkins say it's not about the money and would turn down the fight even if it was about 15Mill.

That's some straight up bull****. They are PRIZE FIGHTERS. Ain't no boxer going to turn down 15mill. Mary Popkins needs more people.

Bhop is letting these promoters know, he's fighting to spoil careers. He considers Ward the next great to carry the torch for years to come. If he can make the pretenders go away, he is motivated by that. That's credible. It's these idiotic promoters that go hound to make ****** fights happen, so to create their own payday. If they look around they can always find some clown to throw a lot of money at a bad fight; case in point Broner vs Mags. So Bhop is just establishing his rules and conditions, which I like. It would be easy for Bhop to come have a unification fight with Ward, get a massive payday, and lose a unanimous decision. He's above that. That's a ****** move Mayweather, Roy Jones, or Broner would pull; they were all about easy money.

newslfashh dummy, Hopkins is only fighting for money. the guy is a greedy POS.

you dudes crack me up...how does B.Hop saying he's not gonna fight Ward equal up to B.Hop ducking him?!?...this isn't the first time B.Hop said this...he just repeated something he ALREADY made public in 2011

AGAIN, how does this mean B.Hop is SCARED(LMAO) of Ward?!?...history tells me that B.Hop has made a living off ruining young fighters...with Ward being his lil' man, why would he wanna do that to him?!?....why add his lil' man to the list?!?....no matter how old, the ORIGINAL is ALWAYS better than the copy....even IF B.Hop fought and beat Ward....there's those who would STILL discredit it and say Ward was a smaller dude and if Ward won they'd say B.Hop was old....whats the point?
