    I see the butthurt RJJ fans have now found a way to lick their wounds by claiming Hopkins will own Green.

    Bring it on I say, if 'nard has the 'nads to do it...why not come down to Australia and dominate Green in his own backyard? :hey

    But Green is no longer a light heavy. I'm not saying he can't make that limit but it's been since 2007 since he has... Why would he take on somebody as prime and talented as Dawson at a lower weight than he's fought in a couple years?

    Not the same fighter? :rofl

    Yeah Green really has made bundles of improvements over the years. I watched his comeback against a bum when he scored a mid round KO and he was the same Danny Green I've always seen. Stacks of heart, good punch, comes forward and throws punches. But..that..is...it. His talent is very finite.

    He might catch Hopkins but power ain't ever been a huge factor in a Hopkins fight because even when he takes them he's moving his head to take away impact, and his chin is rock solid. Ain't ever happening in a million years to Danny ****ing Green and I'll put my money where my mouth is because its impossible.

    Haven't seen the Hopkins fight yet...but totally different story to Roy. Roy just can't take a punch. It landed toawrds the back of the head but it wasn't even a real solid punch and it had Jones scrambling. Hopkins has much better defense and much better chin to boot.

    Green fights forward with a mid gaurd while employing constant lateral
    movement, so he is essentially laways cutting off the ring. Nard wouldn't be able to get in a brawl with green because green is too strong, and wouldn't just fall into the lead right trap bernard employs over and over.
    Old schol tricks won't affect danny all night because he is too big and relentless. If bernard needed a break against a light hitting swarmer in calzaghe, what pratel makes you think he'll breeze thru green? Simple ?
    Also, when i say green will stop hopkins i do not mean like he did against roy. But he would finish the old man inside the distance. Bernard has never fought a physical and aggresive big fighter that was stronger than himself. I just don't see nard being successful w/ green.

    haha these Green fans came out of the woodwork. Green is C grade, Jones has been knocked out before and obviously didn't take the fight seriously, Green said the same thing himself.
     

  7. You make it sound like there is something wrong with being a come forward fighter. Greens style is simple and effective. Many fighters have gotten far with it. Not everybody is Roy Jones or Ray Leonard.

    I think with his size and hard punching Green would have a chance at making it a very uncomfortable night for Hopkins. But I back Hopkins for sure. One thing im even more sure of, though, is that if Green did KO Hopkins, all you guys would be on here saying Hopkins is shot and not have a word of credit for Danny Green.

    Oh no, Is this really true????:patsch
     
  10. lol, id be fascinated to see your "grading scale" if Green is classed as C Grade. He is a world titlist, has two legitimate losses and a great KO %. So Green is C grade, what's an example of an "A grade", "B grade" and " D grade"?
    You are a C-grade person, *****.
