    Hopkins is calling out the 'retired' Calzaghe. If he wants a big fight in Wales there is a ready made fight.

    This could be an ideal opportunity for Maccarioneli for coming out of Joes shaddow. Would BHOP sustain the punching power of a 200lb hitter?

    According to Bunces show today bhop is possibly goin up to cruiser and may fight adamek, who is rated higher than enzo, but bhop would beat enzo imo

    BHop would sustain the power of Enzo, and beat him on points.

    However he only wants to fight the 'best', which means Adamek (number one cruiser) or Calzaghe (number one light heavy), with him wanting to fight Calzaghe in Wales becuase he knows Calzaghe is not going to go back to America. Hopkins does not want to go to Wales just for the crack of it.

    Can't se this happening tbh but if it did Bhop is a far superior boxer and would use his experience to to hold, stifle and pinch rounds as always. However if Enzo landed I'm sure it would be all over.

    the question is wether hopkins would come away from a clinch and get clocked or clinch and get outmuscled to the ropes, enzo would also be a hell of a lot heavier

    Well he may not be 'better' but he is currently top dog in the division (enzo agrees) and that is why Hopkins would rather fight him. Plus many other factors.
