    Golovkin offered to take the fight at 175, lets do it! Bernard's not making 160, and even if he did, I wouldn't want to see him fight, especially Floyd Mayweather. You wouldn't see Bernard blowing kisses at Golovkin.

    No he wouldn't. It would be like Marciano vs Moore.

    No way at this stage can Hopkins beat Golovkin. Also it is clear to anybody who knows boxing that ggg is no Kelly Pavlik.

    Anybody who understands boxing and doesn't let their "black power" racial bias get in the way can tell that GGG would HUMBLE Hopkins.

    Hopkins isn't about to go down to 160 to fight Golovkin. At 175, I'd have to favor Hopkins. Golovkin is a MW though. There are weight classes for a reason.

    Hopkins won't even fight Stevenson or Kovalev who don't have the punch variance and offense that GGG does.

    GGG is the most favorable of the 3, because Hopkins will have enough size n reach to impose his gameplay on GGG

    If Stevens was popping GGG at will, why did he land less than 100 punches the whole bout? Out of those, how many landed any sizzle and werent mostly slipped/shouldered/rolled?

    Watch GGG feet, actually examine the ever changing distance in his fights and ask yourself who is it benefiting.

    I swear, some people wont recognize a boxing defense unless it looks like an EA Sports Fight Night player holding R1/L1 and rolling the thumbstick for all their worth.

    Also, I respect BHop for his legacy and boxing at his age its amazing and impressive. But Rosado (who BHop mentors) probably better than BHop at 160 now.

    Hopkins can't make 160 safely so this fight will never happen. Also Hopkins is a Showtime fighter and GGG is an HBO another roadblock.

    Hopkins should focus on fighting the best guys at 175 (Adonis and Kov) not at 160 (GGG and Martinez).

    I, personally, think that Hopkins will try to fight Mayweather. No way he fights Adonis or Kov. He will not fight Dawson as well.

    Hopkins is a title holder but not the best at 175. Considering his age, he is doing well but cannot compete with the best at 175.
