    Hopkins is fighting Chad Dawson, A guy who bet Antonio Tarver...... twice recently.

    Tarver looked bad verses Hopkins.

    Hopkins three biggest target fights are Chad Dawson, Joe Calzaghe and maybe even Lucian Bute.

    Antonio Tarver is at Crusierweight. And Bernard Hopkins is at light heavyweight. They both have titles in there divisions. ( Bernard Hopkins IBO and WBC Light Heavyweight, Antonio Tarver IBO Crusierweight. ). Why would the leave there divisions?

    Beating Danny Green should put any fighter in the frame to fight whoever he wants.

    You mean, stopping a shot RJJ? Hopkins is too busy fighting real fighters.

    Beating an ATG like Danny Green puts you in the elite of the sport.

    I would like to see tarver try to win a belt first before talking about bhop 2.
    Personally I dont want to see it, some fights shouldnt have a rematch and I think hopkins perfect boxing clinic vs tarver is one of them.

    If Hopkins beats Dawson, i doubt Tarver gets the fight because it's almost a given Hopkins will fight Bute to cash out. But if he loses to Dawson, it makes the fight more possible, especially if it's at CW and for Tarver's belt.

    Like a shot RJJ as well? :rofl

    He also had to cheat and fake low blows and rabbit punches against a completely shot fighter. :lol:

    I'd rather see Tarver-Cunningham, with the winner facing Huck-Krszy and/or Hopkins
