    THought he said he didn't want to after his loss to AA?... or was that only IF he decided to stay in the tournament somehow?

    Taylor will never fight again. Too dangerous for him.
    Huge respect to him for a great career and being a gentlemen.

    What happens if Roy knocks him out?

    If you truly feel that Roy will knock Hopkins out, I suggest you make a trip to Vegas and put the house on RJJ by KO. You will become a instant millionare if he does.

    I don't think he will, but what would Bernard have to say if he got knocked out?

    He probably would have every excuse in the book and not give RJJ an ounce of credit.

    It makes so much sense given the options available for both fighters and Hopkins' motivations these days, it's scary. Hopkins gets his chance for revenge, Taylor gets the biggest fight he can get and it's not against a puncher with the power to really mess him up more. Easily made at 170 or 175.

    Good call Pimp. Unless Taylor retires, I think there's a damn good chance you'll be proven right.

    Thanks! This fight makes sense for both sides and can be easily made.

    ive actually thought about this. the bhop revenge tour. if jermain is healthy enough to do it you know he will. the man's never not faced someone his whole career.
