By G. Leon
"Sturm is the frontrunner, but nothing is done."
October 06, 2004 - GL: You and I have had several discussions about Felix Sturm recently, now there's rumblings that he's the frontrunner to be unlucky #20. What can you tell us about this? "He's possibily the frontrunner and he's more of a frontrunner than Felix Trinidad. Bernard Hopkins doesn't need Felix Trinidad. Felix Trinidad needs Bernard Hopkins. I'm in the driver's seat. I did great numbers on my PPV with De La Hoya, I know his fight isn't going to do those kind of numbers. His father and them haven't faced reality yet. They're still punch drunk from September 29, 2001. They still haven't realized that I knocked him out. They're being delusional, but eveytime he steps out of his house in Puerto Rico, someone is always going to say to him, 'when are you going to fight Bernard Hopkins?
