Possible Matchup: Hopkins vs. Maskeav

[Toddy]

i would say maskaev for this one but i dont want it to happen hopkins should stay retired IMO

[Bonafide]

BHOP just stay retired already. This is crap.
It would be a boring fight. BHOP running, hitting and holding for 12 rounds. No doubt he can beat Maskaev. Maskaev is so damn slow and plodding around like an elephant. BHOP is already going down as one of the greatest middleweights ever. This fight does not need to happen.

Hopkins will win in technical boring decision. Hopkins has enough chin to hang with Maskaev so he will outbox and jab Maskaev througout.

He didnt run from Tarver.

Tarver wasn't a heavyweight.

Toney and Peter are gonna fight to a draw

And maskaev will fight vs a bum fighter so what's your point? after that maskaev has to wait for the toney vs peter 2 to happen if not then he will no longer be wbc heavyweight champion. Didn't you read from the wbc what they say? if so then you should know that maskaev vs hopkins won't happen unless hopkins fight maskaev without the title on the line.

Tarver wasn't a heavyweight.

my point is that, he moved up 2 weight classes, and didnt run from the bigger man. Hopkins is what, about six feet tall? How tall is Maskeav?

[Bonafide]

He didnt run from Tarver.

No he didn't. He boxed masterfully...but also Tarver doesnt weigh 235 lbs

approx 6'3 , 235 lbs

Hopkins wins and proclaims it as his biggest victory ever as if Roy beating Ruiz or Hopkins beating Maskaev proves jack **** other than they can beat the worst of 4 heavyweight champs.
