Did anybody read the article? Nowhere in the article does Hopkins demand a 50/50 split. He says he'll be 50, and it will be Floyd's 50th fight. This is how dumbass rumors get started. *****S STARTED ANOTHER RUMOR. TYPICAL.
It also didn't say that Hopkins wanted the fight at MW. I'm not sure if the TS even read the article.
Look how we are talking and discussing Mayweather fighting a bigger fighter like it's a possibility. Do we ever have these Pacman discussions? Enough said!
the fight wont happen at 160 and it certainly aient happening with 50-50. but floyd would win by UD floyd would just turn the workrate up and the older hopkins who would also be effected by the hugegoal of making 154 would lose
this is worst than fighting dirty in the ring. worst than a fixed fight just to cash out. yeah right!
If it happens NEITHER fighter would get any credit for winning. If Hopkins wins, people will say hes fighting a guy hes naturally 30lbs heavier than and 5 inches taller than. If Floyd wins, people will say he beat up an old, drained fighter.
I don't know what Hopkins is doing. Just looking foolish. He beat Pavlik at a 170 catchweight half a decade ago and was the bigger/better acclimated for size fighter. Now think about the size difference between Mayweather and Kelly Pavlik. Besides, Hopkins hasn't fought at the weight in ages. I wouldn't expect him to make it, let alone with any amount of needed health along with his form if he trimmed down for that.
