Maybe they will fight when Floyd becomes less scared of him. He should get somebody to try to help toughen him up.

my last word on the fight, just wanted to remind folks of what Floyd said at the 7:28 mark in vid below, I'd say leaving your guard down is a mistake, lol

I'm afraid I would have to disagree, I think Manny has what it takes to sort him out. But more importantly I think that this debate is absolutely pointless until a contract is signed. And even then it is moot until put on their cool shoes and they step in the ring together. I want to see Manny in with Bradley and May in with Khan or Martinez.

..The World Boxing Council will continue to recognize Bernard Hopkins as its light heavyweight champ following a vote of its board of directors on Wednesday, RingTV.com has learned.
The majority of the WBC's board members disagreed with the official call of Hopkins' WBC and RING title defense against Chad Dawson on Saturday in Los Angeles. Dawson won the fight by controversial second-round TKO after shoving Hopkins to the canvas where the 46-year-old champ injured his left shoulder and was deemed unfit to continue by referee Pat Russell.
Hopkins maintains that he was fouled by the young challenger and thus the bout should have been ruled a No Contest. Russell did not view Dawson's shove as foul, accidental or otherwise. Golden Boy Promotions filed a protest with the California State Athletic Commission which will review the fight and make a ruling at a Dec. 13 hearing.
THE RING magazine continues to recognize Hopkins as its champ pending that ruling.
speaking of older boxers
Sometimes its best to just hang up the boxing gloves and walk away, but clearly someone forget to mention that to former four-time champion Roy Jones Jr. Jones (54-8 40 KOs) is scheduled to square off against fellow cruiserweight Max Alexander (14-5-1 2 KOs) on December 10th. Here are some details per BoxingScene.com:
Jones attempts to end a three-fight skid as he performs in Atlanta for the first time in his legendary career. The Pensacola (FL) native has fought throughout the Southeast, but never in the Peachtree State.
His last ring appearance ended in disaster, landing on the wrong end of a highlight reel 10th round knockout at the hands of top cruiserweight contender Denis Lebedev this past May in Moscow. The surprisingly competitive bout took a terrible turn for the worst when Jones was nailed with an overhand right that left him frozen. Lebedev paused and turned towards referee Steve Smoger in hopes of stopping the fight, before landing one more right hand that put Jones down face first.
By the looks of Alexander’s record and knockout rate this fight should be nothing more than an exhibition for Jones Jr, one of the greatest pound for pound fighters of this generation. Alexander is winless in his last six bouts. I’m seriously hoping that is the case, because I would hate to see Roy end up like this again.
