I'm pretty sure most people here on ESB felt Pascal would finally retire Hopkins. I hate Hopkins with a vengeance he is a racist **** who I despise but he has skills as well. He's never been KO'd and tbh Haye is very 1 dimensional. It's the perfect fight for Bernard. Like the Froch Abraham fight as well people respect KO%'s too much and always favour the puncher. A truly skilled slick boxer will seldom be KO'd. Look at how they fight Haye lets people come forwards that's how he fights. Bernard would circle Haye and set traps - he'd make Haye come to him not he go to Haye. Honestly people underestimate Bernard's skill.(And certainly in tandem Calzaghe's but haters are always gonna hate)
Nobody knows! And i doubt Haye would dodge Hopkins :rofl:rofl Hopkins said him self Haye could knock him out! I doubt Haye even received an offer! Hopkins wants to fight every one thats just Hopkins. Fight would not last 6 rounds Haye by brutal ko!!!
you forget haye is a slick boxer himself and is much, MUCH stronger than hopkins and hits much, much harder than anyone hopkins has faced.
Yes, but casual fans are not the ones who make up the PPV numbers. It's the general public, and I can assure you that the British general public do not know who Bernard Hopkins is. Harrison on the other and is more or less a household name.
Dont get me started or you will get floored you muppet. Clean that Hayes jizz off your face and answer the question.
You're talking complete and utter bollocks....but I love your avatar so I'm gonna have to agree with you on this one.
:good He's right Everyone in Britain knows who Audley Harrison is His fight with Haye brought loads of PPV and ticket sales Britain have been waiting for an all British Heavyweight showdown since Lewis v Bruno and Haye capitalised on that Hopkins - high risk low reward. If he won - Hopkins was over the hill If he lost - He is a laughing stock losing to a 44 year old if he won or lost - he doesn't make much money With Harrison, he publicised the fight perfectly using trash talk and colourful language like he normally does. All British affair made him millions to retire on Mayorga has made a living bad mouthing people to get paid. Do you really think he would be as well known as he is now if he played a nice guy? A closed mouth doesn't get fed
