    I know these two were close to fight a few years ago,hopkins carried the weight just fine against calzaghe so he could easily make 210 and meet toney at a catch weight,if toney stops his lazynezz he can also come down to around 210 and fight hopkins,this fight of course will not happen,but I've seen stranger matches put together before ala pacquiao-de la hoya,.... if hopkins fought toney at heavyweight who wins and how???

    I have been thinking for the past 12 months that this would be a good fight. I think BHOP was considering Holyfield at some stage but BHOP vs Toney is still credible.

    hopkins has a 29-30 inch waist..... he couldnt fight at heavyweight if he ate cake everyday for a year

    newsflash !!!!! hopkins started his career at lightheavyweight, and hopkins might be able to carry the extra weight much better than toney.

    It is too late for this to be a significant fight really.

    can you imagine the build up to the fight, these to trashtalker at a press conference??? this will be priceless hopkins will not and I repeat will not intimidate toney,toney is a bad m***f*** who has faced the toughest fighters of this era,at every weight not cherypicking but real challenges and have impressed everybody by hanging out with guys way bigger than him,peters, rahman,holyfield,ruiz, you name them. this fight will be indeed intriguing.

    Can you imagine a 44 yr old Hopkins being asked to put on 25 lbs?????
    Hopkins is already old, slower & his stamina isn't the best. This fight wouldn't be a dream match at all. If this fight happens, it'll be just another reason for UFC to diss boxing
