    He also said he would never fight RJJ because he was a shot fighter.

    This is a smart, shrewd move. Golden Boy can and will market their top fighters in the US better than Frank Warren could, and Joe will still have his UK fanbase. All this sets up nicely for a superfight against Pavlik provided both get past Roy and Bhops, respecively. At least that's what I'm keeping my fingers crossed for..

    And lets not forget that GBP and Top Rank are willing to do business with eachother now so things are looking positive.

    I think Hopkins knows more about the dirty tactics and would have the advanantage. He probably practices head butt's etc. Imagine if he didn't have to try to 'sneak' them in. :yep
