    This is nothing but a "Pay me because stupid fans will eat this up" fight.

    How can they justify it being PPV worthy? I'm not being cheap, but c'mon man!

    This is going to be a revenge match for B- Hop. Jones jr. beat him before and he would like to get even. From what I've read about these two, they really, really hate each other.

    There's simply just unfinished business between them. Hopkins has had a 17 year itch and needs Jones to scratch it.

    Agreed. It is a ridiculous match up between to boxers cashing in on their legendary status. I don't know why anyone would pay money to see this.

    PPV worthy? Funny ****. Yes, the Omar Sheika fight was much more deserving.

    I wouldn't buy it unless I were a millionaire but I find it interesting too, in the Duran/Leonard III vein. The poor man's, poor man's, poor man's Duran/Leonard III vein.

    Roy Jones is no longer relevant and B Hop gets no credit for this victory. This is a fight simply for their fans, I doubt anyone not a fan of these guys tunes in.

    jones is not the same after the knocks and beatdowns he has take from tarver, johnson, and zaghe. bhop needs to fight dawson, abraham, bute, or ward. ppv fight? **** that bs.

    Its a revenge match for Hopkins to get paid for kicking RJJs ass and nothing else.

    A 45 year old former light heavyweight champion needs to fight three top super middleweights, two who are tied up in a tournament at the moment and undefeated champion Chad Dawson? Why does he need to do these things? He doesn't need to do **** in this sport, my man.

    The whole age argument is tired and weak. If youre going to use age as a crutch then dont claim to be a top fighter. **** or get off the pot.
