    Comments Thread For: Hopkins May Take Backseat, Abraham-Sturm is Pushed

    50-year-old Bernard Hopkins is targeting one final world title and WBO super middleweight champion Arthur Abraham (43-4, 29KOs) is the prime target of that quest.

    But Abraham's promoter, Wilfried Sauerland, is now pushing for his fighter to face Felix Sturm (39-5-3, 18KOs) in an all-German showdown and he wants it to take place before the end of the year.

    Ward vs. Hopkins as Cotto-Canelo Co-Main Event.

    Might as well get it done.

      Did anyone ever doubt that the Germans would play domestic ring around the rosey?

            How in the world did this two guys manage not to fight each other in the past 10 years until now?

            Anyway, Abraham-Hopkins would have been a mismatch. I'm glad this might finally happen.

              Hopkins isn't even ranked at 168 so why would he just be awarded a title shot anyway.

                  I don't even know why Hopkins would want a fight against Abraham. Abraham is such a dangerous puncher and Hopkins doesn't have the work-rate anymore to keep Abraham at bay.

                  But it all depends on Sturm, I think Sturm should fight Andre Ward.
