    Since Calzaghe, Abraham, Kessler, and Dawson are all busy, they are not in the poll.

    Hopkins is the best name there, he beat Winky and has a great legacy, but Hopkins is still gonna school him.

    Williams, that fight has got the possible makings of a classic, failing that, Ronald

    Mora or Wright... they're the most logical of all those fights.

    Winky Wright is the best possible opponent outside of Arthur Abraham. Abraham has commitments for the near future -so the Wright fight should happen in the meantime. Barring a match with those two - Bernard Hopkins deserves the chance to show that the old lion still has his teeth or to christen the new king.

    that so many people picked Winky over Hopkins surprises me.

    Hopkins beat Winky a year ago today, and Winky has been inactive since then while Hopkins gave hell to one of the top 3 fighters in the sport (Calzaghe)

    to top it off PAvlik has to move up in weight to fight Hopkins so thats a challenge right there.

    Voted for Wright, Hopkins is too old, Williams needs to win a couple a fights at middleweight first and Mora would just get knocked out 30 seconds into the first round.

    I say Hopkins, simply because even though he's 43, he's always in great shape and 2 goodsized Americans will fight again, such as Pavlik and Taylor, AND Kelly needs to fight a real good counter puncher, and a guy with alot of tricks up his sleeve, and thee aces in his pocket...:D The experience he will get from Hopkins will help him in future fights, otherwise Winky, because he is tough to nail:D:D

    Hopkins. He's just had a fight so isn't gonna come in rusty like Winky. Plus if it's a 170 it gives him some advantage. It also helps Pavlik get a little closer to a Calzaghe fight, should he beat Hopkins.

    01. Pavlik vs Wright
    02. Pavlik vs Mora
    03. Pavlik vs Hopkins (Pavlik would have to make a leap, but it could be his biggest payday)
    04. Pavlik vs Williams (I can't believe this fight is even being talked about)

    Do you think Mora is a bigger challenge than Hopkins at this point?

    Hopkins is a cagey old ******* and i think he might old man pavlik in this one, i suspect pavlik to win a close ud.

    But old bernard will have his moments, just thinking how ordinary he made a big tarver look :huh

    Hope hopkins will throw more then 12 opunches a round though :lol:
