    [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Bernard Hopkins and Winky Wright both weighed in at 170 for Saturday night's light heavyweight showdown at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. After the weigh-in, Hopkins put his hand in Wright's face and shoved him backward. Winky responded with a push and the fighters were quickly separated....more to come.[/FONT]

    i question how much genuine animosity there can be. haven't they been business partners, at least under 'special arrangement', for the better part of a year now?

    Didn't Winky say he's not gonna sell the fight, I guess Hopkins took matters into his own hands.

    That's not a good sign from Bernard, I'm starting to believe in Winky more and more. I don't believe Hopkins has been this hostile before a fight ever, I'm going with Wright by a comfortable UD.

    Hopkins is a legit LHW who through great training stayed at 160 for most of his career (after starting it at 175 I might add). Wright isn't a LHW though.

    I smell a fix Nothing new with Nard, he and Oscar did a great job scripting their fight.

    Looks staged, Winky is smiling throughout, just trying some last minute selling.
