    I saw he has only 1 fight and 1 win KO round 1 against today's Australian's Heavyweightchamp...
    He seems to be a kickboxchamp also but I wonder why he didn't fought more fights in boxing after that win in 2007.

    I think he might can get the Aussies back on the map of Heavyweightfighting (I now Kali Meehan is doing okay but still...)

    Ben Edwards isnt known for his great stamina, He caught hoppa early with some flush shots hence the KO but i couldnt see the big boy going 10 rounds for an aussie title

    You don't think he could easily become Australians heavyweightchamp?

    Hoppa has improved alot since he fought edwards. He tryed to fight big ben the same way he fought frank faasolo. Except ben could throw a right cross and thats where the story ends

    Hop got caught early and he kept getting up before the ref stopped it. He was prepared properly etc buy its now history. Hop moved on and Edwards tore his shoulder muscle etc after K1. They were to have a rematch but the injury postponed it.

    Is a rematch still a possibility?

    What about the crowd going nuts over this
