Hopkins wants David Haye

Agreed they should both retire.

 

1) I know he's been wanting Haye for a while now (before he was HW champ).

2) I know he thinks he sees something that he can exploit in Haye

3) I know he figures his crafty style and straight down the pipe shots can give him success against Haye.

4) I know he figures worst case senario Haye makes a name for himself in America and Bernard makes money off the guy.

But come onatsch Haye will ****ing decapitate Hopkins inside a round. Has Hopkins seriously forgotten his weakness? Guy's with more speed and athleticism then him have always given Hopkins trouble. Haye is faster then B-hop right now as a heavyweight. How in the **** Hopkins thinks he's going to get away from his shots...or **** even out work Haye is beyond me.

 

He won't fight him. Haye would only be vilified for putting a legend in a wheelchair.

BHop is delusional if he thinks that he should carry on. RJJ is totally shot.

After the awful performances from both of them, the whole of boxing is a little bit worse off and sullied tonight.

That was simply sad to see.

"Years of ringcraft" was forwarded as a legitimate excuse to justify outright, wilful cheating.

And to think that Haye got abused tonight for actually fighting...

 

Did anyone ever think Hopkins made himself look this bad on purpose? He did it before. After his Taylor losses he went and destroyed Tarver. After his Calzaghe fight, he went and killed Kelly Pavlik.

I have a feeling this is all part of the plan, whoever fights Hopkins next will underestimate him and it will all be part of the trap.

 

Make the fight.

 

No way. He is just super insecure when it comes to Jones. Haye should firmly put Hopkins into retirement. Hes almost as shot as Jones.

 

Id rather see Holyfield fight Haye than Hopkins.

 

He is sure he can beat him. I think he gets KO,d

 

Let Haye smash this pathetic wanker. I'm all for it!

 

Not even close.

 

So your telling me he could go from utterly destroying the middleweight champ, to having problems beating a very shot Roy Jones? Hopkins looked pretty decent in his last fight, unless something happend in camp. I would bet everything I have in the bank, Hopkins puts on a special perfromance in his next fight.

 

I disagree with the Taylor part he still made him look bad in the first fight and made the second competitive. **** he ruined JT even in defeat! It's possible he was acting all of this out though. Hopkins is about as sick in the mind as RJJ it's depressing the continue fighting on.

 

Haye would give him some real rabbit punches to think about.

 

No, Hopkins days at the top are over. Who would plan to deliberately cheat , roll around the floor like a big Jessie and risk the chance of disqualification as a well thought out game plan?

He doesn't deserve a shot at the HW belt. In fact he has just done his P4P ranking a whole lot of harm. He used to be Bernard Hopkins; he's just an old guy who's more "tricky" than dangerous now.

David Haye would really do him some serious harm in a very short time.
