    Who do you think will win?
    My first thought is that it will be a close fight with not very much action. The main things here are the speed of roy and the accuracy of B-hop.

    Roy is Gone. He should retire Now. Hopkins would win via a UD via 4-6 points.

    It would be tear-inducingly boring.

    Hopkins has always been over rated. He is not that good and will be exposed by JC.

    RJJ would still give Bhops a sound beating.

    Roy wins as easily as he did 10 years ago...while I'm at it Johnson would stomp Slopkins now

    Great for what ?. He never beat a great fighter and the mw division was never abudant with talent during his reign as champion. He was the Chageav of the MW division, mediocre overhyped rubbish. He still is rubbish.

    Most of his fights were a borefest. I would rather watch Matt Skelton fight than Bhops.

    This fight would have been good the first time the Spice Girls got together. Now it makes Jesus cry.

    i think it's a toss up. jones stylewise is still not a good fight for hopkins. considering the way hopkins fights now, it's not a fight i'd be breaking my neck to see.

    I also look at Hopkins fights with JT and Winky ..If he starts of slow like he did in those fights he will give Jones plenty of scoring oppurtunities ..

    Lol, it's close on the poll. :patsch


    THERE'S NO POSSIBLE CHANCE THAT ROY COULD DEFEAT BERNARD HOPKINS IN 2008! NO WAY!!!

    What did you see yesterday evening what I missed?



    The only way Jones will avoid a (possible wide UD) defeat from Hopkins if he'll end up fighting Calzaghe (that's the even worse scenario for Roy).
