    Hopkins called out Haye after beating Jones. Easy one for Golden Boy to make. And less risk for David ... could make sense if the Klit fest doesn't come to fruition.

    By the way, was it just me or was the Sky comm on Jamie Moore shockingly bad?

    Hopkins has NO chance. Especially after last nights performance against Jones.

    Hopkins was awful.

    He's basically looking to fight anyone who might throw a rabbit punch so he can take a few breaks during the rounds.

    Pretty much sums the way I feel about the possibility of this fight happening. Good job it'll never happen anyway. As much as I like B-Hop, he's becoming increasing irrelevant and seems to spend more time talking about fights than actually stepping between the ropes. He's hugely boring now and I'm fed up with it; fight Dawson or Bute or just go away, Bernard- you're just in the way now. I'm still pissed the Adamek fight didn't happen FFS:-(.

    I'm sure Haye has said on multiple occasions that he won't fight Hopkins.

    Hopkins would probably beat Haye....... Too technical , Haye has just got a big punch...

    Apart from fighting the Klits Haye has no decent opponents so a fight with Hopkins would be an ok filler for me.

    Seems really strange that Hopkins would be looking for this. He's no idiot, and the signs of becoming old are becoming more and more evident in him. I'd say he'll never face somebody like Dawson, because he knows he cant handle 12 rounds at that level any more. But why look to face Haye? I dont get it.
