    Which is why many thinks Pac will win. General public always pick the more exciting fighter to win.

    In the end, PacMan is a legitimate favorite at the betting offices, but it's a hard fight to pick. So the only thing Hopkins' comment tells me is that he's not involved in Ricky's preparations, because if he was, he'd say Hatton by stoppage. He's an excellent analyst, but also an emotional guy always picking his friends. But here, I don't see him giving all his support to Ricky.

    LOL ******! But yes I agree. Hop usually picks black fighters to win. He hates white people in some way.

    Hatton is one shade above albino.

    I think Hopkins dislikes the UK. He made that evident in the run up to the Calzaghe fight. Some will say he was just promoting the fight, but I think he speaks his mind.

    So he will always back the fighter who isn't British.

    Surprised Oscar let him pick Pac, wouldnt want to annoy Hatton

    I think Hopkins just doenst like UK fighters anymore though as well

    Not that he doesnt make logical points just dont know why he would admit to them

    Bhop was still haunted by Joe Cal lossed. Brits are the thorn in his neck.

    I cannot remember Bhop's has accurate analysis.
