    **** off please jackass. Hopkins is a 44 year old who's scaring younger genetation like Adamek away.

    It wasn't Hopkins who ruined the negotiations, it was Adamek. They offered him a career high payday and a chance to hit the jackpot. Like Hopkins said, who the **** knows Adamek and he knows he won't get any credit for the win. If Adamek wins though he gets a lot of credit and more major fights come after it. Got to take a few risky steps with little money to become popular and he was the one to turn it down claiming it's too much risk for little money.

    Above all it was HOPKINS WHO CALLED HIM OUT AND STARTED NEGOTIATIONS.

    I'm surprised ******s that think Hopkins is "running scared" exist, are you Bonoa's mother?

    You know, the 60 percent for a KO winner might make this one a lot more exciting than expected. This might convince both fighters to take a bit more chances. That 10 percent is probably 1 million or more. Also, this might be the last fight for both fighters so both might let it hang more than usual. We saw some signs of RJ being a "warrior" in the Calzaghe fight. Fighting hard till the bitter end.

    I'm already ordering this one for sure.

    Ray 'boom boom' Mancini said before Hopkins/Pavlik, "NO ONE KO's Bhop". It might be a good gimmick for the fight, but I see this going to decision if it comes off.

    Definitely expecting a decision but i'm talking about the action from 1-12. It can still be a good 12 round fight if they take more chances and let it hang out.

    This is more of a win win for Hopkins at this stage ..Roy has been where he is now..Incredible that Jones even after all he's been through is still Bhops biggest dance partner ..


    Here's hoping to a classic :rasta
