    Take note Cleverly that's what a real man is.
    Cleverly has already agreed to fight Kovalev so what does that even mean?

      How? If Hopkins beats Adonis and Kovalev beats Cleverly what is going to change regarding the networks? Showtime will have even less desire to put Hopkins against a guy they have no rights over and if won could just go to HBO after taking most the LHW belts.

        Well right now it makes sense just to get the fights done.

        Afterwards it'll probably be a mess.

          That's a nice little tournament idea. I like it.

            Really?
            Must've missed that.
            Where'd he say that?

                I have a feeling that Kovalev will be the last man standing after this LHW rumbling.

                At that point, expect a showdown with Andre Ward.

                  How is Bhop in the mix for these fights and Andre Ward is on the sidelines.

                  Seems like a role reversal. You would think the young prime dude would be searching for a challenge and not the 48 year man.

                    Well quite obviously Hopkins a title holder at 175 and ranked number 1, while Ward has expressed no intentions of moving to 175 any time soon.

                    Ward should though. Nothing left at 168 but chasing around Froch.

                      I like this 4 way round robin. MAKE IT HAPPEN! Hopkins ends up at the end of it with ALL THE BELTS!
