Joppy has been signed to Goosen-Tutor...the middleweight division just got interesting. It's going to be a very exciting 2008
Howard Eastman, William Joppy and Robert Allen were the best MW's during most of Hopkins title reign. It was a very very weak division! Hopkins had to fight, fighters from smaller weight classes just for a live body.
Joppy is at the tail end of his career. He could win some fights against lower-level contenders, but more than likely, he will be a stepping stone within a year or two.
Why would Goosen sign washed up and insignificant Joppy? So his fighters can beat on someone in their sparring sessions. :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :smoke :smoke :smoke :smoke
Joppy was a good fighter. Ever since the Hopkins fight, all I can think of is how banged up and mutated his face was. That was sick. Good luck to him.
William is a valuable comodity to anybodys division, he is a hard nut to crack and will always be a handful for any of the divisions top cats.. He is not finished by any means.. Great signing for Goo Tut Promos..
Are you serious and well informed about Joppy? He is way over the top and can get serious brain injury continuing with all those blows to the head. He can better sing for a coffin as well
I cant get that excited that Goosen signed a guy who's been a welcome mat for elite fighters ( Hopkins, Tito ) and the rest ( Taylor ).
