    I'm starting to think Joe might come back.

    The scene has an article quoting Schafer on the matter.

    I agree. All this smacks of him getting restless. (see how I managed to slide smack in there). He could return and take on Bute whilst awaiting the Super6 winner.

    Still think it's very unlikely but its certainly more likely now than this time last year!!!

    I agree. He needs to place home footage of that russian on the net!!!

    That would make me love him again.

    I assume you were thinking the same thing!!!

    if he comes back will be at 175lbs.

    the Hopkins fight makes sense and then Dawson maybe.

    Assuming He gets past the ghost of Jones. (I have a funny feeling Jones might sneek it!)

    I think if at any point Roy is posing a stylistic problem for B-Hop, Hopkins will just beat him up and take him out.

    Hopkins knows that if it's not working out as a glorified spar/exhibition he will just turn it up.

    Maybe Hopkins knows that nothing less than a repeat of the Green result will make it a decent win. He's always going on about Legacy, maybe he really doeswant to lay a beating on Roy.

    Interesting fight, mainly because Jones won't have too many problems surviving, Hopkins probably isn't as fired up as Green was. Maybe he'll still pose Hopkins problems as he did with one hand all those years ago?

    B-Hop has got better with age though. I think he'll stop Roy in the late rounds meself, and soundly beat a returning Calzaghe IMO. I don't know if Joe will be able to 'get up' for a return. Just a feeling, he really does seem happy to be out of it IMO.
