Comments Thread For: Hopkins Moving Down, Eyes Final Bout With a Champion

[MJ406]

Maybe I missed the quote where he said he'd be moving down in that article?

Carl Froch vs Bhop would indeed be a massive fight, that'd sell out Wembley another 80k crowd...
Very interesting fingers crossed he does go to 168 lol.

second to last mini paragraph in the article, Hopkins on potential opponent, he wants a Champion and "it will be from a division beneath me"

as for who those guys are - Froch currently holds the IBF and WBA Super MW titles, Abraham with the WBO and Dirrell with the WBC

while Golovkin vs Hopkins has been talked about in past, I don't see anything to gain by it from Golovkin's end of it. Outside of a violent KO, what does Golovkin gain from a fight vs Hopkins? I don't see much

if the Chavez Jr-Froch talks die again, I say Hopkins vs Froch, and NO don't have it at 170, have it at Super Middle for Froch's 2 belts, provided the IBF doesn't strip Froch first.

Imagine if he wins another title in another division at 50..that would be sick

its possible just depends who he fights

[Rip Chudd]

Abraham would be the easiest title he could get at 168. He'll probably go that route

I honestly don't believe Golovkin's team would be interested in that fight.

i would be shocked if they were not i mean why wouldnt they be its still a huge fight

[damned1974]

Sounds like he's talking about Froch (Ward being out of the equation since he said he would never fight Andre). I got Hopkins schooling Froch...

Can't tell a legend what to do

But damn , 50 years old and still wanting to fight the title holders out there

I'm proud to have been a huge Hopkins fan these past ten years

If GGG wins he's just accused of beating on Kovalev's shot leftovers. If he loses, his career is basically over. On tof of that the size difference. It just doesn't seem like it has much of a point.

Froch vs Hopkins as a double farewell fight is perfect.
