Surprise, surprise Hopkins fights on

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

It would be really interesting to see Hopkins fight for a heavyweight belt, but i just havent got good vibes about him fighting on, maybe he should just call it a day and enjoy the money he has earnt.

I'd have to say he has a legit shot at a heavyweight belt, who doesn't?

Yeah he probably does, but IMO if he goes up and wins it will just show how poor the heavyweight division is right now rather then how good a fighter Bernard is, he has NOTHING to prove.

He might be comparing himself and his legacy to the the other two standout American middleweight stars of the last 15 years James Toney and Roy Jones Jr. He is probably eaten up by the fact that they both challenged for and won a heavyweight crown so in that sense he probably does feel he has something to prove.

Certainly moving from 160 to 175 and winning a title is not nearly as impressive as moving from 160 to full blown heavyweight no matter who the opponent is.

If Bernard did win a heavyweight title it would have a massive positive impact on his long term legacy, if he loses it probably won't affect it so I say go for it.

I can see where your coming from actaully, sod it lol go for it Bernard!

Thats the spirit

Besides, i remember when B-Hop first spoke about fighting Maskaev.
It was on the whole "USA regaining what the Commies took from them while wearing stars n stripes trunks ala Apollo Creed" tip.

Its a bit silly, but it would sell very well.
