Why doesn't Hopkins go to Murat, I heard Germany is nice in September. It would give more Europeans a chance to see the old man in action.
Come on Bernie, see the world!
My guess is that after Murat didn't get his visa B hop will be annoyed that he's been messed around after Murat was given the opportunity. B hop shouldn't be wasting time with fights like this, it won't prove much. If I was as old as B hop I would just be going for Stevenson and then keep trying to lure Froch in for a fight. If B hop becomes the legit 175 champ again, this could attract Froch to move up in the not too distant future.
