    A 50 year old hopkins would do more for floyds resume than his entire career so far

    Mayweather would be still fighting a light heavy weight when BHOP comes in at 175 fight night and Mayweather would make him look bad.

    Hopkins is being a twat trying to end Mayweathers record. Maybe popkins should fight Wlad?

    No. It's nt a natural weight for any of the two. Will be seeing shadows of both. Plus - we all want to see Hopkins v Kovalev/Stevenson. Make these two fights happen, please and stop feeding us bull****.

    I respect the game of boxing and wouldn't want to see it turned into some sideshow ****. Hopkins knows his time is about over as a gatekeeper with a title and people will demand that he defend his title against the likes of Stevenson and Kovalev in which case he will get the brakes beat off his old ass. He needs to relinquish his title and fight only as an event fighter to see how far he can go. As for Mayweather, he is still prime and haven't slipped an inch. The only question mark for him is Pac and I think that will be his closing act.

    Yes . I just want to see how floyd deals with hopkins inside game and dirty tactics bcuz floyd is crafty in clinches too but hopkins is bigger and can push floyd around on the inside. Who outfoxes who?

    Hopkins should call out Chavez JR. I'd love to see the Ole' Man end Baby Chavez' career...

    Ok that is true but I still think this would be all hype and no action:yep
    Then again, maybe Bhop pulls out all the stops and lands some elbows and gets real dirty on Money:huh

    I don't think Floyd wants to chance moving up to 160. That weight would slow money down too much IMO:think

    He wouldn't need to "make" 160 for a fight with a weight limit of 160. This isn't the amateurs.

    People always say the only thing that can stop Floyd is father time.

    That might be the most boring fight in boxing history.

    Not interested.

    I am, however, interested in Mayweather-Sergio at 160.
