    Can the long awaited rematch finally come off!?!

    It's money spinner and from last night you'd have to say it still looks like it could be a competetive fight!!

    These two will never even get beyond squabbling over the money split to ever fight.

    I think this fight is the logical choice for both if they can drop their egos and sort out the financial issues!!

    Jones has to look very good against a much live r opponent in Danny Green first before he and Hopkins can even be a consideration at this point .

    Hopkins would have him, and Jones knows it. It'll never happen because Jones would never give him the satisfaction

    You didn't watch the fight. Taylor was winning (as you would expect in the early rounds) until Froch systematically broke him down at the end. Which of those punches are you classing as 'lucky'?

    I think RJ would win. He's got the intelligence and the blazing hand speed to bother Hopkins. RJ won't get baited into Hopkin's game. If the fight is on the outside, RJ will win. If the fight goes to the ropes, RJ would still win.

    The Executioner will make Captain Hook walk the plank.
