    Now after watching Evander Holyfield vs Nicolay Valuev, I believe Hopkins could move to heavyweight and beat him decisevely.

    Old Man vs The Giant ? In WWE maybe, Im not sure if they could sell that fight, but then again you never know !

    Who wins and should Hopkins try to fight him ? i think he sould for ovious reasons.

    that would be hilarious and hopkins can retire as heavyweight champ beating the largest champ ever, he just needs to throw about double what holyfield did and use the same game plan he did with Pavlik and i'd give him a good chance hahaha

    Bernard by easy easy easy decision 120-108x3 ! if fighters like Calzaghe, Roy Jones, Trinidad, Taylor, Pavlik and many many more couldn't land a clean punch on Bernard then How the hell is valuev going to ? this would be a bigger mismatch than Paquiao vs ODLH..



    Who picked Valuev ? why ? how ?

    Hopkins by comfortable decision, unless the judges were paid off. Valuev throws punches so slowly that they cannot be powerful, so the question of "heavyweight power" troubling Hopkins would not come into it.

    What are you talking about ?
    Are you crazy ???

    It is Bernard Hopkins! 183 cm tall.
    Valuev does not have the speed but him punching is the same if somebody hits you with a huge log. It may not be a fast punch but you'll feel it.


    It was not Valuev's lost it's Evander who did show himself at his very best even at the age of 46.

    I honestly DO think B-Hop could beat Valuev. Why not, he'd be very small, but Holy was only 15 and a half stone yesterday! There was talk of Hop fighting Maskaev a little while back, smaller but undoubtedly a harder hitter than Valuev.

    In the States, Hopkins can win a decision.

    You should watch more Holyfield fights, if you realy think that was Evanders best form.

    He'd win by UD if the fight took place in Valuev's kitchen.

    Are you crazy?

    Don't you have a heart?

    Why would you put this boxer in a no-win situation like this?

    Why would you ruin this boxer with this mismatch?

    Why would you ask this boxer to do the impossible





    Altogether: why would you want to see Valuev getting his brain bleed out in losing all twelve rounds, not able to land one single significant punch?

    Because it's crazy fun, that's why. I'd pay to see this. Hopkins dominates the hairy ****. :D

    Sure ---- Hopkins beats Valuev.
    Better yet --- PBF stops him. It would be like being attacked by a million houseflies. By 12, he would be begging for mercy.
