    I'm thinking KTFO. Dude doesn't know when to quit. I don't know if Pavlik is the guy to do it, but it's a stupid fight.

    i fink hopkins will retire. he's too crafty to get Knocked out by pavlik. taylor made it the full 12 rounds without gettin floored the second tym. i fink hopkins will com in with 1 last game place and retire as a legend becuz he's too smart.

    I agree, it's definately a stupid fight, but Hopkins can more than likely keep himself from getting knocked out. I'd like to believe he isn't that stupid. If he at some point puts himself in the ring and he isn't physically capable of keeping himself from getting hurt I'll be extremely shocked and disgusted.

    He'll get beat before he retires again, that wouldve been a better thread title, but he'll retire but get beat by Pavlik.

    Hopkins should retire before Tuesdays press conference. I predict Holmes/Ali all over again if this fight does happen

    Unless B-Hop is in his 50's and fighting the best heavyweights in the world, he isn't getting KTFO. Maybe someone will one day stop him, but he's never going to get truly KTFO.

    too wileyfoxlike

    he might give Pav alot of questions but usually youth and athleticism get by hopkins.

    he was almost stopped by mercado with a right hand in the mid rounds so you never know he might be given a smack (this is boxing you can't not expect to get hit and not be hurt)

    but pav isnt a right hand puncher he is a lefty at heart and it will be the left hook that kelley looks for. a right hand will come in after.

    Roach wouldnt tell him to retire unless there was something wrong. Theres a good chance his next fight will be his last.

    Hopkins buys into all of the bull**** he talks, and thinks he should be undefeated. He'll keep boxing until he gets knocked out
