    I haven't seen anything saying what weight to two will be fighting at, has anybody heard?

    What weight does Jones win at?

    What weight does Hopkins win at?

    I would think it would take place just over 175lb so if Jones does beat Green the IBO belt will be at stake in the Hopkins vs Jones match up.

    This should be a Light Heavyweight fight at 175lbs. - still undecided on the victor of this fight.

    I think Hopkins W12 at Light Heavy or Cruiser.

    I am tempted to say it will take place at cruiserweight, but I can't recollect exactly or cite a source to verify.. I just think I remember seeing somewhere that it would.

    Either way, I'm pickin' Jones for this fight. Progression, stats, and all else would point to BHop coming out on top, but I think Jones will take this fight very seriously-- to the point that he'll appear at 100%.... Whatever 100% of his current form/capacity is.

    Dan Rafael said it will be at LHW and he's the guy who broke the story directly from Richard Shaefer.

    I love Roy Jones, but think it's time for him to hang them up. I think Hopkins takes this with an easy decision. Does anybody think there is a weight, that both can make, in which Roy Jones can win?

    i dont think it matters what weight this will be at.

    probably bhop on points...probably...maybe
    ..but only because of where both are in 2010...bhop doesnt really prove much in beating jones now.

    10 years ago...jones wins again

    I heard if jones beats green, then there fighting for the ibo cruserweight title, hopkins wants to go after another title in a different weight class

    What happens if Green knocks him out, are they still gonna fight? Or does Bhop dispose of Green like he did all of Roys opponents.

    I agree with you on that...Roy is constanly messing up his health with him constanly fighting...I like Roy and I hate to see him in a ****ed up mindframe 10 years from now.

    B-hop on the other hand has fought accordingly to his age and I think thats what seperates them today!

    It doesn't matter really.
