B-hop doesn't deserve to fight /w Tito

[nezahualcoyotl]

read between the lines, i enjoyed Hopkins-dlh, the way Hopkins Koed dlh was a good feeling. mayo-tito was also a great fight but i enjoy all of Hopkins fights

Oh i c, you should've said in the beginning that your a DIE-HARD HOPKINS FAN.

So are you eagerly awaiting the Hopkins-Cherifi II fight????
lol j/p. Of course Tito is going to fight B-hop again. This was in the makings YEARS ago by the brains (a.k.a. HBO executives).

I bet you this time 1 or 2 years from now, Tito is going to get his revenge.

And then we'll have Tito-Hopkins III in Puerto Rico. ahhahaha.

None of us know how bad these guys need the money for the fights.

Or how bad they crave the spotlight.

Or who fights because they love the sport and the competition.

Holyfield doesn't need the money; he needs the notoriety.

Tarver needs money; he's going through bankruptcy. He needed Roy.

Tyson needs money; he's going through bankruptcy. That's why he won't accept a "rebuilding" Foreman-like comeback - he'd fight Roy or V. Klitschko tomorrow if the price was right.

I guess it depends on Tito's ambitions and what he values.

He certainly is young enough and hot enough to schedule them both and fight them both and make 20 million plus in the next 12-18 months.

HBO can tell the guys who they want on...but the fighters have to sign the dotted lines.

Yea at least Tarver and Tyson can admit they needa fight for the money. In this case would you still buy their fights?

I know a lot of the poor fighters fight for both money and love of the sport. You can tell by the way their face looks after a fight. Morales has proven this countless times. So has Emmanual Agustus. What about Jorge Paez? Then ther's Juan El Pollo Valenzuela. So many young hungry fighters out there its krazi.

OK...so which happens first?

Tito-Hopkins II or Tito-DLH II?

I'm thinking Tito kills DLH on Cinco de Mayo. Then next September Tito makes another kool payday and fights B-hop.

[realheavyhands]

hopkins deserves it more then anybody... he worked as hard as anybody and refused to sign with king for big money... and this fight will happen and i will buy it and hopkins will win and ride off into the sunset

[realheavyhands]

any time tyson fights i will buy it

From what I've heard it looks like both of these TRUE warriors left a piece of themselves in the ring last nite.

And I dont think Tito should give B-hop a BIG PAYDAY...**** THAT! When was the last time B-hop ever gave US the boxing fans/community a really ****ing good fight!?!? On the other hand, I bet you everyone, including HBO, is going to HYPE up the Trinidad-Hopkins rematch. I hope it doesn't happen. Mayorga derserves EVERY penny he earns and more! I say let Mayorga or Tito **** up Jermain Taylor. And let's see how much money B-hop can get for a rematch with Cherifi hahahaha.

After that fight Sept 18th - I will never be a sucka and give money to the DLH or B-Hop retirement fund.

Which fight was better? DLH vs. B-hop? or Tito vs. Mayorga?

Tito NEEDS Hopkins if he is going to have any credability.

I dont doubt this fight will happen I just think if it was up to me I wouldn't let either De La Hollywood or B-Hop fight Tito and make money off him, but I guess its going to happen newayz.

However, I don't foresee Tito vs. DLH/B-hop being nearly as exciting as Tito-Vargas or Tito-Mayorga.

I do agree that B-hop deserved the titles/money as much as neone BEFORE the de la hollywood "liver shot", but man it really disappointed me didn't deliver like I thought he would. If he did I would've put him P4P above Morales, but now he's #2.

If I was tito I would make Hopkins wait a year before he fights him again. I would really like to see Hopkins-DLhollywood 2 and Hopkins-Cherifi 2..LOL..sorry.

WOW! You must really love this guy. Any relations?

Have you seen Jeff Lacy fight? Looks like a Miniature Mike Tyson. He's a showtime fighter.

I'd say for a Tyson fight just go to your local bar and pay $10 for a few drinks and watch it. Or if your lucky enough get yourself illegal cable.

[nezahualcoyotl]

I'm not sure he does, but it is going to happen anywayz. I mean do you think you can convince any true hardcore tito fan that he's not legit @ 160lb?

The only reason to doubt his stature @ 160lb would be when he beat William Joppy wasn't there an issue with the way he wrapped his hands? Gauze-Tape, Gauze-Tape? There is only supposed to be 1 wrap of Gauze-Tape, not 2.

I wonder if Mayorga's camped remembered this from the Hopkins fight?

oh he has credability as a legit middleweight, but if he wants credability as an all time great then he needs to go after the guy who kicked his ass.

He cant just avoid Hopkins that would look very very bad
