    Would love to see Bhop vs either guy, but sadly i dont think it will happen,, too many obstacles plus hopkins only has about a year left as an active fighter

        When does any one think Hopkins would get past any one?

        Afterward: "He beat a 13-0 part time fighter doe."

          True, but i have always picked hopkins since the tito fight,, i think that was the last time i went against him,, that and the dawson fights,,,

          I just think that age has caught up to hopkins and he will not be able to keep up with shumenov for all 12 rounds and will probably get outpointed,, Hopkins fights too much in spurts to beat top guys,, Im not sure shumenov is a top guy or not, so its not entirely clear what will happen when they fight

            Hopkins won't touch either, and nor would he stand a chance if he did.

              Have you seen him fight?
              Dude's like a statue. No head movement, walks like he has concrete shoes on and becomes motionless when he's about to attack.... no head movement or anything.

                I just can't see him beating either. He got caught clean by light-punching Murat. If Stevenson or Kovalev was to catch him like that, he'd be in very big trouble.

                  Yeah, i get all that, but realize hopkins is about 50 years old,,, eventually father time will get you....

                  I think hopkins can beat shumenov, im just not as certain as i was when it was hopkins-cloud
