    Hopkins hugs, skips, and cheats his way to a decision. Somehow he convinces the ref and judges he’s just pulled off master class.

    Because I'm indecisive I'm going to let the people decide who Hopkins' next challenger is,

    Please pick between:

    James Toney
    Charley Burley
    Mickey Walker

    Whoever has the most posts by the time I look at this tomorrow wins and if no one has any votes I'll just do a random number generator.

    It's going to be a fight between the Hopstans and the TwoTones.

    I think Hopkins movement would bother GGG and Hopkins can fight on the inside too.
    GGG has the type of power that can mute all of that - Echols dropped him pretty good - but Hopkins is pretty sound on defense so that could cancel the power out.
    I would pick Hopkins by decision.

    I appreciate the sentiment but voting is already over.

    Well, Joe Smith brutally knocked his ass out of the ring. Does that count? Hopkins didn't even know what had happened and claimed Smith pushed him out.

    As much as Hopkins annoys me, let's be fair and admit that a dried OLD stick of beef jerky probably shouldn't have been in the ring with Smith in the first place.

    True, but after Hopkins repeatedly called himself "special" and Joe Smith being "common" during the prefight press conference, you have to admit that it was a pretty special moment (no pun intended) when Joe knocked him out of the ring.
