I have tons of respect for B-Hop and if I was him, I'd take the challenge. What are his other options? Adonis Stevenson? Does he really want that right now? Nathan Cleverly I'm sure he would love to fight but does Cleverly even want a piece? Beibut won't get any love from anyone, he should call up Chad Dawson.
        I'd say so. Hopkins's preferred opponent is Froch. It wouldn't surprise me to see Froch take that fight.

            honestly.............i think Kovalev would get out boxed.

            i don't see what people are hooting & hollering about.

                It's called TRT! It does wonders. Hopkins isn't the only fighter out there who is 'old' and staying relevant: Dan Henderson, Vitor Belfort (only 36 but has been fighting professionally at the elite level for about 20 years), Randy Coture (fought until he was about 48-49), etc...

                    Kovalev is #3 at LHW and just destroyed the guy who dominated Cloud who's is apparently a good win for Hopkins.
