    I think if Hopkins beats Jean Pascal next month he most likely gonna fight the best crusierweight in the world which is Steve Cunningham. Also, both from Philly so it would sell.

    will never happen imo. Wouldnt make sense for Hopkins. Too high risk low reward. He may fight a cruiser, but I doubt Cunningham.

    I have to go with B-Hop too. I think its a good option if he doesn't get the Bute fight. Like I said both are from Philly and Hopkins has a chance to have another linear title. This fight will have some interest.

    no it would not sell. The guy is more known in Germany than in the USA.

    If Hopkins beats Pascal, then Hopkins vs Bute will be a mega fight.

    I agree with the Bute fight will be a mega fight, if Bute agrees to fight Hopkins. You don't this fight would sell out in Philly?

    Not Happening. If he wins, a showdown with Dawson is more likely. A fight with Cunningham makes no sense, and both Cunningham and Hopkins are trained by Nazim.

    Don't see it happening but I'd favor Cunningham.

    Wow, this poll is tied. I admit Steve has talent and skills, but didn't think he could win this fight.

    The winner is already signed to fight Dawson.

    Either way, I don't know what most of you are on about, it's more likely that Hopkins will retire if he wins. I doubt he gives a damn about Dawson. Why would he? He's lost his 0 and he didn't want to fight him when it was worth fighting him.
