GGG to Fight Hopkins at 168 Wtf ??

[imperial1]

If the rumors are true looks like Bernard Hopkins at the ripe ole age of 52 will be taking on GGG at 168 ..How pathetic is this ? I mean wouldn't fight Ward at 168 requested a catch weight of 164 but would be willing to face Hopkins who is over 50 at the SMW limit ? Who else finds this disgraceful ??

[Redd Foxx]

Oh, you won't believe the justifications people are giving on here. Absolutely delusional. Someone told me that B-Hop will have no problems because he did it 12 years ago. They are so starved for ANY kind of name on his resume that they'll settle for this. If this doesn't work, they're going to go after Sugar Ray and Haggler.

[Mr.Fantastic]

I don't like it and I'm a GGG fan.

[Razcal26]

It's disgraceful.

This fight shoudn't even be considered. GGG's team shouldn't even be mentioning Hopkins or any fight at 168 or 164.

Stay in your 160 lane like you said you would.

[#CaneloKhan]

just sad to be honest.

He wanted ward at 164 and no to 168, he wanted mayweather at 154 but says no to canelo at 155, he wanted to catch rosado at 158 (rosado turned it down). Says he only cares about unifying, but he can do that now at 155 wiht canelo but he wont do that cause he not sure about himself but he knows he can beat hopkins at 168 so he will do that.

So much BS ABOUT his self in this game.

[JJRod]

Wait, so is this after the wade fight or after the Nelo fight? Or are they pretty much saying there will be no Nelo fight?

[IFightDirty]

I don't like to react before anything becomes official, but if this does happen, it shows how big of a hypocrite GGG is. I like GGG but I see through the BS.

Hahaha... Don't forget his cousin Roy "The Black Russian" Jones, Jr!

You ain't lying if they can't get SRL or Haggler I'm sure they will challenge Jake Lamotta he's only close to 100

They're not challenging him, Hop is pushing for it cause he wants to go out on a ****. And Loeffler said, if they can't get Canelo, Bjs and Jacobs, then it becomes an option
