    Any word if B-Hop has an opponent lined up or is even looking at anyone?

    Now the Calzaghe re-match will never happen, who would you like to see him go for?

    Adamek is the only fight I can see for him. If that doesn't happen, then a rematch with either Glen Johnson or Jermain Taylor, but neither of those options excites me much. Nor does a fight with Dawson for some reason.

    Please, no-one say Roy Jones. Just, please don't.

    Adamek is a bad fight for him. Personally, I'd like to see him face Mikkel Kessler for a 168-pound title.

    I've heard he wants to fight the winner of Pac vs. Hatton for the lineal P4P title.

    It'll be somebody white, Bernard is an old racist and on a rampage and he wants to redeem himself after the loss to Calzaghe.

    What a fight, what a build up.

    Hopkins should learn something from Calzaghe and just retire on a winning note.. I mean he just schooled an undefeated middleweight champ in pavlik... Only Greed would make him fight on..

    Id rather see him retire..

    Why? If Hatton beats Pac to win the P4P crown then Hopkins could boil down to 154 and fight Hatton for the title. Assuming he isn't too scared..........

    If he can perform the way he did against Pavlik, I wouldn't mind him sticking around but im pretty sure that was his last exciting performance.. All great fighters have a last great fight left in them and that's what we saw in the pavlik fight.

    That's why i didnt want to see Hops/Adamek... I think it would have been real boring with Hops on the defensive...

    He should fight dawson or retire...

    To get a shot at Hattons P4P lineal title. What a way to end a career, as the Undisputed Lineal P4P Champion!!!!
