I dont remember Hopkins dodging anyone, remember who was the unified champ and where he came from. You say he dodged Joe, did Joe ever consider coming down to middle and challenging the world known champ on his soil or was Hopkins supposed to go up in weight and travel across the ocean to fight someone the world didn't know. Hopkins never dodged Joe, and now it's to late in the game for the two to fight, Hopkins is old now and even though I HOPE he beats Tarver I just don't know if he can. He's smart enough, but he's old and slowing and don't have the power Tarver has, either way I hope he retires after this fight.
