If Bernard were to dominate Kelly would you give Joe more respect?

    Its one of those what if situations,and i respect the opinions on here............So what if Bernard beats Kelly convincingly would you still want to see Kelly fight Joe,or would you want to see say Abraham fight Joe,and woukld it just be another question of styles or a question of Joe's adaptability being better than Kelly's etc.....???:rasta

    I should think that Hopkins will be favourite to win.

    No.

    I already credit Joe for the excellent win it was.

    No, absolutely not. Hopkins dominated Calzaghe as well when he chose to fight him.

    Kelly moving up in a new weigh class is a big factor so NO . . . if Bhops would beat Kelly at 160 then that's another story.

    Take note Bhops is at 175 now.

    Pavlik is plenty big enough for 170.

    But it's true that Hopkins has probably made the smart move...

    There's a surprise.*
