    Hopkins should offer to fight Shane Mosely at 160lbs then come in at 170. That would keep PBF happy.

    If only he was as demanding with himself as he is with others concerning opposition.

    I would love for Mayweather to have a face to face debate with Hopkins..

    You can be sure Hops would make him feel like a kid looking for his mommy.

    Hopkins should retort "I will when Mayweather does"

    Why does the thread have to be an original theme? Floyd provided the ammunition here, it's not like people are having a go for no reason. If you cannot see the hypocrisy in Floyd's statement then that is a shame.

    I agree with PBF their first fight was a complete stinker one of the most boring fights I have ever seen neither Hopkins or Jones were willing to engage just a bunch of posing etc.

    I agree with Floyd in that I would also like to see Hopkins face a guy like Dawson or a Paul Williams than face Jones again. However, I'd rather see Floyd fight a Mosley, Cotto, Pacquiao, Williams, rather than JMM as he has done!

    I'm a big fan of Mayweather's - he's the best boxer, P4P, including Pacquiao, but Floyd does himself no favours when he comes out with remarks like he has done about B-Hop!

    The guy is nearly 45, lets see what Floyd is doing at 40, let alone 45!

    I wouldn't be surprised if RJJ won, who knows how Nard will look at 45, he is likely preety shot at this pt in time. As for PBF, if he thinks RJJ is such an easy scalp, how should move up and fight at a CW, and find out for himself:deal

    Doesn't Floyd Sr train Dawson? I'm sure there was a lot of family interest at hand in his comments.
