Hopkins wants Mayweather next May

[led]

I agree B-Hop will win with ceaseless hit and clinch.

Problem is Floyd will retire on November 24th.

Are we though? Kessler made $3 million v Froch, Guerrero made $3 million v Mayweather.

Hopkins v Froch would do more than Froch v Kessler imo, and I'd imagine Froch would fight at a 170 catchweight.

I'm guessing Hopkins would have a much better chance of winning v Froch too.

poopkins is scared.

would be such a low risk easy win for floyd zzzz

[SN!PER]

Floyd would do to a drained Hopkins what Pac did to De La Hoya.

I don't think the fight will happen. It's fun to think about though, having 2 defensive, tactical genius' in the ring fighting each other!

The idea of De La Hoya-Pacquiao in 2008 at 147 was laughable. DLH hadn't fought at 147 since the Gatti fight, more than 7 1/2 years earlier, and Pacquiao had never fought above 135.

This is boxing; it's possible. If Hopkins wins impressively vs. Murat ("impressively" will be a very relative term here, guys), SHO and GBP will push for it, guaranteed.

Both fighters were younger, and De la Hoya was dropping down ONE weight class...and it hurt him.

Bernard CANNOT make 160. I am 100% sure. He drops to 160, he will be a skeleton.

Yeah it's certainly intriguing and tbh I'd rather watch Floyd fight Hopkins then any other fighter out there bare pacquiao/martinez

[Hougigo]

Didn't he barely make weight against Pascal 2?

[lazy]

Hopkins-Mayweather will never happen. Mayweather would demand 147lbs anyways.

[hugh grant]

Floyd likes names on his resume and he don't mind if they are bloated up to fight him, weight drained, or past it his history proves, so I see no reason why he wouldn't fight BH.
