I'm absolutely gutted that Bernard has signed to fight Jones's corpse

    I'd watch it, it could be entertaining. Though I know that this fight don't mean **** as far as their legacies are concerned.

    He wants to avenge a loss that Jones was yapping about for the longest. Hopkins has nothing to prove anymore so he can make decisions like this. The same goes for a Vasquez-Marquez IV, yes they're past prime but have nothing else to give and can make this fight but God forbid this fight too. Dawson needs to stop fighting old men and fight Cloud or Pascal. For heaven's sake Dawson can beat up the elderly yet when Old Men Rivers want to fight each other that's a problem? Chad is talented and wasted his time on a Tarver rematch which he could've fought someone else.

    Funny thing is I'm going to watch this fight with the hope that Roy wins. What a sight that would be. Jones can say even though I'm shot I beat u twice! B-Hop will probably commit suicide.

    People will watch it. Question is, what if it is not free. Would you buy the PPV?

    I'll watch it if it is on HBO or Showtime. No way I'm buying the PPV.

    My damn when you're right you're right:lol:. Good points. Lacy was giving Taylor a few problems so I feared about him as well since he should've won that fight much easier. I sensed something wasn't right about him and knew he wasn't the same fighter and was on the edge of thinking about retirement. Note this was before the Froch and Abraham ko's.

    Im just guessing but I think they will stack this PPV card like they did to help sell Mayweather vs. Marquez.

    He should have stuck with Danny Green.

    The man is only human, and I suppose he's got to do what he's got to do. I'll file this under things to do before you die, seek revenge.

    I'm so so very sad to say I agree with this. We can't keep Hop in the p4p rankings if he is fighting a shell like Jones after a warm-up with Ornelas. The Ornelas fight was acceptable purely because it was a prelude to a real fight with someone like Adamek. P4P ranked fighters don't fight exhibitions against shot fighters.

    Zero chance of that happening though. Jones's chin will crack like a nut after one hard accurate right hand.
