make no mistake, hopkins is worried about fighting green. saying he couldn't be scared because he is entertaining the prospect of fighting haye etc. at heavyweight is complete rubbish. hopkins has no intention whatsoever of getting in the ring with haye and co. that is the reason he has changed the agreement. he figures he'll ask for 60/40 because if green doesn't accept, then hopkins can use that as a face saving argument, and he figures if he is going to take the risk of fighting a cruiser banger like green then he is going to milk it for what he can. it has nothing whatsoever to do with being upset that he has been asked to lower himself to a 50/50 deal against a guy who doesn't have a resume like his own. hopkins knows he can take much less risk against other fighters and still make some decent cash.
True... But Mundine wont give him 50/50.. EVER he has the win , and doesnt NEED the fight to happen...
Rubbish, Hopkins knows RJJ is finished that's why he was so keen to rematch him. I don't think Hopkins gives any credibility to Green for knocking out RJJ. Hopkins looks at Danny Greens resume and sees Beyer twice and Mundine have beaten this guy. He wants at least 60/40 because he's a ATG, not because he wants to save face. Anyone that thinks Hopkins is even remotely scared of a 37yr old Green who been around for years is delusional.
I dont think anybody is saying "B HOP is scared" but more like B HOP has taken into account the stoppage of RJJ into his risk reward sums and just want more cash
I really doubt Green concerns him in the slightest, if anything it would be the early stoppage itself which would be more troubling to him...
hopkins is complaining about getting only getting $4-5 mill instead of $5-6, or something along those lines. even though he would probably get $2mill or less for fighting anybody else. any objective and sane person can see that hopkins DOES NOT WANT TO FIGHT DANNY GREEN. why? because his testicles r not big enough. hopkins is smart enough to know that fighting a big banging cruiser like green is a seriously risky fight. u only have to look at most of his recent opponents. they have been middleweights stepping up 2 divisions all of a sudden to fight at a weight that was clearly beyond them. and now he has the chance to fight a guy who relish's the extra weight.
Danny Green isn't a ****ing cruiserweight, he's a big boned super middle. Hopkins being afraid of Green is ridiculous, if you think that you do not know boxing.
Hey hazey, what have you done in life to criticise Green for what he's done? Go **** yourself you Dawson (possibly the whiniest and most boring 'up and coming' fighter in the world) nuthugger :yep I bet Dawson couldn't stop RJJ in 1 min 22 secs
Anyone who says B-hop is scared of Danny Green needs to have a serious look at who B-Hop has fought in his career & where he has come from. If Green is so confident take 35%-40% & he will make more millions for yrs to come.
