Glad to see Pacman vs. PBF goin down. Even happier to see Roy Jones TKO'd in first round.
I bet when RJJ stepped in the ring today he thought to hi self "oh shit if I win I have to figt B-Hop" and that is when he lost
Hopkins looked like he was sparring. Roy Jones Jr. looked like he forgot how to fight.
Yeah, Roy "musta forgot!" lol. I wish X woulda turned up the heat a little, though. He should of stopped him to really make a stetement since he's now wanting to fight Haye for the Heavyweight title. BTW- I'd love to see X as a heavyweight champ...you know Roy would be pissed that X accomplished the same thing that he did.
Theres no WAY pac-floyd is happening in March. Sorry it wont happen.
Anyway last I heard a few days ago Roach was saying how the plan was for Pac to fight in the another weight UP against that Jewish guy.
And then he said AFTER that fight theyll fight Pac in September.
He wants Pac to have the record for most titles won in weight divisions first.
Roy Jones is way past it. This loss means nothing, he got a reported 10m out of it.
i feel sorry for hopkins, whos he going to fight next?
1. Chad dawson- too tough of a fight, nard has alot to lose and not much to gain, Dawson doesnt exactly draw out any crowds
2. Danny Greene- i think this fight would be interesting for the general public, but B-hop has Greene covered in pretty much every way.
3. Lucian Bute ( THE BEST POSSIBLE FIGHT FOR BOXING) hopkins vs bute would be huge, hes a hero in romania and a big draw since his Ko win over Andrade, tough fight to call
4. David Haye- WTF. hard to see bernard winning this one, david is far tooo strong, though a win for Hopkins would propell him into the top 20 ATG
5. Adamek- Easy fight for hopkins, but i dont see Adamek eyeing this fight since his move up to heavyweight
feel sorry for Hopkins? why? he just won.
and how the fuck is hopkins gonna fight Haye LOL? Hayes a heavyweiht now
He's planning a move to heavyweight just like Jones did back in the day. He was a long-time middleweight and moved up to light-heavy to wax Tarver so it's not that hard to imagine.
The whole Pac thing with moving up to 154 is old news now. The only thing holding up the fight SUPPOSEDLY is Manny's congressional run.
if you ask me, roach just wants more time to develop a strategy against mayweather ... roach knows he ain't got shit to go against pbf, so he has to stall as much as possible to get manny in top conditionQuote:

yeah I really wanted to see B-hop beat roy's ass
i dont know of any fight right now for him
there is Bute, but im not sure how he will boost hopkins legacy.
the only super fight i can think now for hopkins is Haye, but he wont be able to fight him until Haye fights his mandatory challenger, and we all know how long it takes for Haye to get back into a ring. Plus Hopkins needs a fight inbetween before he fights Haye, and to have 2 warm up matches is stupid, so im thinking he will either fight greene or roy, then fight Haye
tbh, i really dont give a fuck about RJJ. Why are people still talking about that clown?
I feel for Hopkins because I felt he was robbed against Calzaghe. I feel he was much better than Calzaghe and really made Calzaghe look like a fucking amateur. It was terrible judging for that fight. They gave Calzaghe the win purely because he started fighting like a idiot. Hopkins was by far the superior boxer.
Hopkins is old now though . Him and Holyfield are still great fighters and are using their experiance intelligence so well in fights, but they both need to quit. You cant be taking that much head punishment for that long.
the difference between B-hop, and Holyfield is while when holy fights I dont give him much of a chance, I will never count B-Hop out
i agree with you about the calzaghe fight, i feel that the judges respected aggresion more than the sweet science itself.
but Hopkins is not a Holyfield, dont get me wrong i think Evander was a great athlete and champion but bernard is something special, just watch the kelly pavlik,wright and tarver fight, those are three SOLID recent performances against top p4p opposition and b-hop was over 40. His defence now is pretty much one of the best in boxing right now, his style fits his age and it has been almost 15 years since he has been knocked down against mercado, and nard hardly ever shows signs of bruising or cuts or ANY kind of damage after fights. I think he can go on for another 2 fights
as far as RJJ goes I think he made a career out of beating no bodies yes he beat B-hop, and Lights out, but I think he never gave B-hop the rematch out of fear, and once tarver touched him, the fear people had of RJJ went away, and he got exposed to what he really was an ok boxer, but an over rated one
thats true but then again he cleaned out everyone from 170-175
it musta been hard for roy to find big fights, then he fights ruiz, destroys his ass
moves down weight divisions and thats where everything fucked up for roy, its hard to lose over 40 pounds and still be at the top of your game.
but i HATE how roy still fights the same way that got him KTFO. He doesnt adapt, he shudda retired after the ruiz fight, or he shudda stayed at HW and at least keep some dignity rather getting beat by tarver and johnson. Two fighters that got DOMINATED by bernard
I wanted him to retire after the first tarver fight, because even though I think he is over rated he is still on of my favorites, and I hate seeing people I grew up watching lose like this, that is why I wish B-hop would hang up the gloves in the way, because I dont want him to be like holyfield, or Jones
Key word being ONE of.
No one has the defence of Mayweather, hes on a whole nother plane of thought in that respect.

^^looks like March 13th it'll be on after all
on a sidenote... anyone peep that recent movie "Tyson"? it's worth a watch for sure. it's interesting to hear his reasons, not excuses, for biting Holyfield and pulling that crazy press conference shit with Lewis. he's a disturbed motherfucker lol
I read a great article where the writer suggested that X take on James Toney at Heavyweight to test the waters a little before challenging for the belt. They have never fought, are about the same age, and both have bad attitudes as well as being masterful defensive fighters. As far as that shoulder roll shit goes, Lights Out has had that shit on lock forever! Sounds like a fantastic fight to me, especially since James is in the best shape he's been in for years.
I think Hopkins can get one of the heavyweight belts. Not against one of the Klitschkos (or Haye), but maybe against someone else. The heavyweight class is real weak right now except for the brothers.
I think Hopkins has a chance of beating Haye, after all Haye has a loss & also was a cruiserweight, so he's not the biggest heavyweight. Pacman also has a chance vs. Mayweather, I don't hate Money but I also thought he lost vs. Jose Luis Castillo in the first fight. The De La Hoya fight was also close. A dream fight for me would be Pacman vs a prime Julio Cesar Chavez at 135.
julio cesar chavez was the ultimate boxing technician....
march 13th bitch what it do
how much would a ticket be to watch PBF V PAC? Guesstimately?
i dont think march is enough time to get trained for one of the biggest fights of all time. they should be training for 6 months for that.
Weren't you the cat that just said there's NO WAY it's going down in March? And again here....you have no fucking clue what you're talking about. If it lands at Cowboys Stadium, a whole 20 minutes from my crib, I'll post my ticket so you can be proven wrong again.
Unlike othe parts of this board, people here are SERIOUS about this shit and many, like myself, have been addicted for 10-15 years to the game. Opinions are welcomed but there's no need to keep coming in just to try to contadict what the last man said. Nobody here gets amused by that shit. Peace.
