    I think Joe will hammer Hopkins but his camp should insist on a British ref.We all saw what happened to Ricky Hatton with an American ref in charge!

    Of coarse he should!!He`s prepared to travel so the least he should expect is a British ref and not a dodgy American one.

    why hopkins does not hold and wrestle, and the ref for the Hatton vs Floyd was Hatton's choice .

    R-i-g-h-t...

    They should get a neutral ref from somewhere in Europe or the Americas. That Belgian ref for Ottke-Reid did a fine job, and had an excellent mustache.

    not necesarily a British ref but a fair one thats not influenced by the wrong reasons and the same point apply to the judges.
    I'm more concerned about the judging..

    The ref will be neutral, Frank may be overprotective and wary of setting up the bigger fights at times but the Ref and Judges will be fair; GBP do not have the monopoly on this fight.

    Joe should be more way of drugs in the ice cubes and Hopkins looking for a TKO through deliberate headbutt's to his face.
