    That I would DEFINITELY pay to see:yep:good

    And i agree the first few minutes, it seems like RJJ was on speed planet, but I give him props for wanting to adamently make this fight and I think 60/40 for winner and loser is more than fair. RJJ brings excitement, Hopkins might be master tactician, but he didn't get the nickname Borenard for no reason. Needless to say thanks for the find whoever it was, this was very entertaining lol

    hopkins sounds more sane but roy is owning hopkins. "he couldn't eat because i was there...." "hope they call u tonight and tell you your legacy is better than roy's so it makes you sleep better..." "talk about your legacy all you want as long as it don't have my name on it..." " you two (hop and oscar) look good together..." "i ain't gonna split my money with de la hoya like you do..."

    If Bernard was so confident that he could beat Jones, why wouldn't he take the deal? He would make the most money fighting Jones than he would anyone else.

    As much as I'd like to see it, I doubt the rematch ever happens.

    all Hopkins was saying was that Hey Roy i beat Tarver and Johnson EASILY, two fighters u got knocked out by.....he says that like 10 times at different times....lmao. Guess what Hopkins ROY BEAT YOU.

    Hopkins and RJJ are two of my favorite fighters ever and i'd love to see this rematch but i don't think it would happen but there is definitely a chance.

    As long as Roy keeps clowning B class fighters, Bernard is going to have to keep answering people about this fight. It's going to wear on him.

    I hate to say it but i think Roy is right on this one.... 60 to the winner seems great to me. Hopkins should take this fight.

    Battle of the Oldies. This could actually make for a good fight. Jones would have more to lose, I imagine, and could try to be the first guy to put BHop to sleep. But I don't see this fight being made.

    Roy couldn't be more wrong. Hopkins has options. Roy doesn't. Roy can either accept the 40% and get one more shot at the limelight, or he can continue on with his circus act of a career.
