Apparently, the fight B-Hop has been working on is against Stevenson

[soul_survivor]

Can Hopkins become lineal LHW champion at the age of 51? In Canada? Against Canada's biggest boxing star?

This fight sells itself and **** you to the haters, I want to see it. Unlike KOv, I think Stevenson takes Bhop out.

This fight should have happened in 2014

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

Ah then yea, probably a false thing I saw somewhere.

This fight should have happened in 2014

With that said, I wouldn’t mind watching it

damn, this is a DANGEROUS fight
to be honest i dont want B Hop to take THIS fight Stevenson's LEFT hand is more powerful than either hand of kovalev(but kovalev has a more balanced attack and left AND right are skrong) if this fight is made B Hop CAN "outbox" Stevenson BUT he can also get KNOCKED OUT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HIS CAREER stevensons LEFT HAND is THE most dangerous punch in ALL of boxing i'd say
i dont like this fight ONE bit. B Hops "reaction, reflexes, & timing" are NOWHERE near what they used to be and not where they USED to be 5 years ago, **** even 3 years ago.
this is a ****** ass fight and DO NOT WANT HIM TAKIN' THIS FIGHT.
STYLES MAKE FIGHTS AND THIS FIGHT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS

[SN!PER]

Sad to see the old man go out like this, but he is a warrior til the end.

I actually like this fight. I think Hopkins would be more competitive with Stevenson than he would Golovkin. Adonis spends alot of time posing, not a constant pressure like Kovalev. That's workable for Hopkins.


Lets see if Stevenson has the balls to accept, he may be afraid he'll be compared to how Kovalev and Pascal did vs BHop. After the weak opponents he's been facing, this would be a step up for him.

"dont worry mom, I wont fight past 40"

[about.thousands]

Am I the only one who say Hopkins was finished against Kovalev almost two years ago? Fighting at 51 after close to two years of inactivity. There is nothing appealing about this fight. Hopkins is just a name.

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.

That argument can't really be made because B-Hop turned down Stevenson for Kovalev. It wasn't really Stevenson's fault.
