GGG vs Hopkins close to being signed

It'll be at 164. It needs to stay consistent with ggg's demands for ward.

hopkins already bragged he was at 172. makes sense.

this allows ggg to be a ppv item. if he beats hopkins, this allows him to lure people to ppv money. imagine lemuiex and company lured in by ppv money. this is why they held david back. if he fights ggg now, he makes less money than a post-hopkins ggg which can get on ppv.

even ppv on a small scale makes you more money than hbo, if you do your numbers right (not spending too much).

 

You really think Hopkins can make anything below 170?!

 

he said in radio raheem video he was already walking around at 172 and has given hints throughout after the kovalev fight he was going to look to see how his body responds after bringing down his weight. do i think its doable? yes. do i think its to his detriment? yes. do i think its a good idea for him? not really.

 

Who said that? Because Golovkin said untill he has unified all MW belts he is going to fight at 164, in the middle betweem 160 and 168. after unifying he can go up in weight forever.

 

Of course he can. He was 172.5 against Murat and Shumenov. He could go down to 168 easily. Nothing exceptional in that.

 

What is so funny? Try to go in a gym at least for a month and you will understand how it works. It is just 4.5 pounds for a 180 guy. It is nothing.

 

What is Bernard's walk around?

 

My guess is somewhere around 180. I doubt he is more than that. He seems quite fit between fights.

 

I honestly doubt he is yet to spend an entire week off from the gym since he was in prison.

 

I dont think BHop was rehydrating very high, 170 might be reasonable.

Doubt this fight happens anyhow.
