    Excellent, Hopkins wins the WBC SMW Title, crowns his career with his 50th win and leaves space for only one fight left - the Calzaghe rematch of course.

    He should fight Bute, it's the logical choice for progressing his career rather than chase Calzaghes old opponents who will likely beat him anyway. You ain't making a late come back to knock Hopkins out, that's for sure.

    Froch were bitching Joe for the Hopkins fight and now he want the same and even older Hopkins, Carl ''two face cobra'' Froch is showing his true color. Losing to Bhop at this point of his career could be a real disaster. Anyway, Bute or Bhop, Carl will get beat. Maybe he can knock Bute, but Bute can knock him too. With Bhop, the only possible ending is a wide UD for Bernard.

    According to Boxing News, Bute has suddenly upped his demands for more money, which is why Borenard is now in the frame

    IF its true, its sad, maybe Bute deserve this money but if he pricing himself out of this fight, its not a good move. Bute, like everyone, needs money, but he's already a millionaire, so if he really want this fight, the cash should not be a problem.

    I'm glad you mentioned that, because nobody else has mentioned the weights involved. If Hopkins has to cut weight to get to 168, it gives Froch alot better chance to win than if he chased Hopkins up to 175.

    170 actually. And I'm guessing this would be another 170 catchweight fight.
