    I doubt it'll happen. But props if it does.

      I don't think he would get too much backlash for taking a Hopkins fight (although the argument could be made that he waited for Hopkins to age two extra years from when this fight was first talked about). But everyone and their mom will be rooting for Stevenson to lose.

        We should invade Canada if they allow this fight to happen. If this goes thru what's the point of Canada besides being the hat of the U.S.?

          I don't like it, Stevenson wins easy. He moves well, and throws straight punches. Powerful straight punches. Bhop wouldn't be able to get his punches off or get inside to make the fight compelling. Count me out.

            All these factors that need to go right.

            Hokins is HBO, but I don't see HBO holding out on him for his last fight.

            GBP/Oscar hates Haymon still, but same thing as HBO... they're not gonna withhold the old man, especially since he's a part of GBP too.

            Then the fight being maybe 2 months away, the clock is ticking down, so gotta hammer it out soon and announce it if it's still in April.. gotta start promoting

              I heard that Hopkins was to fight on the Canelo undercard but I could be wrong on that.

              I can't imagine Hopkins would fight on Showtime/PBC if he works for HBO.

                Fight won't happen in the U.S. We got laws on the books against elder abuse.

                  I saw the thread that said that... I watched the whole vido in the thread...no mention of that in it... he did reiterate though that he was fighting in April.

                  OP just had a bad title

                    Suprised to hear that

                    If this gets done and the Khanelo fight does this mean GB lawsuit will pretty much be thrown out.

                      I think this would be a horrible fight to look at
