    HBO turned down the Bhop v Adamek fight.

    I guess that makes Bhop v Danny very very real.

    Schaefer adds, "So then we basically have two guys; we have Bute and Green. And these are the two names we’re focusing on in the last two days. As a matter of fact, yesterday (Tuesday), I met with Danny Green in my office with his advisor, Gary Shaw, and we have been going through the numbers for a Hopkins fight happening in Australia and there is some interest from the networks for that fight, as well. Then we have been looking at a Bute fight. So I had conversations with Bute’s promoter, Interbox, and we have been going through those numbers, as well. There is interest from the networks for that fight."

    To maximize his earning potential, Hopkins will most likely have to fight outside the United States.

    "Now I’m going to be fine-tuning the numbers," said Schaefer. "I need to get the exact numbers from the overseas revenue sources and from the domestic revenue sources and then see what kind of deal structure we can do with the various camps and then go to Bernard and tell him, “Look, here is the deal. If you go to Australia’ -which he’s willing to do- ’this is what the compensation package would look like.’ And if he would be going to Canada, which he’s willing to do, as well, ’Here’s what that package is going to look like.’"

    Schaefer says that Hopkins would prefer to get back into the ring in March. But another source says that a bout with Green in Australia would most likely have to take place in early April.

    I read an article today saying that Green Hopkins is at risk over money issues.
    Hopkins wants a 60/40 split, however Green is not accepting.He wants 50/50.
    I say Green is being too greedy.60.40 is good enuf! lets get the fight made!

    *********.com was advised that a proposed fight between Bernard Hopkins and IBO cruiserweight champion Danny Green is in serious trouble over money. Hopkins told *********'s Robert Morales that he wants a 60-40 split on the money.
    "Right now we are just crossing the 'T's and dotting the 'I's, waiting to see if that 60-40 is enticing enough for Danny Green," Hopkins said.
    Green's adviser Gary Shaw told ******** that a 60-40 split is unacceptable. There was a prior verbal communication for a 50-50 split and Shaw/Green were under the impression that everyone was on the same page. There is also*a back and forth tug of war on the domestic and overseas television money.*
    "He wants to change the deal from 50-50 to 60-40.*I spoke with Danny Green late last night and 60-40 is unacceptable. Danny Green himself spoke to Hopkins yesterday and Hopkins said that he wanted to keep the American TV money and Danny Green said 'that's not happeneing,'" Shaw said.
    Shaw plans to speak with Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer to map out a different deal structure.
    "Hopkins can keep the*American TV*money and Danny Green can keep all of the other money in Australia -*or we can go back to what was perceived as a fair deal for everyone, which was a 50-50 deal," Shaw said.*

    Gee, Hopkins changing his mind over the agreed split again, how unusual.

    This is why he's got Bute waiting in the wings, hoping it'll give him leverage over Green.
