...b-hop gets another big name on his list before retirement, hop wouldn't be able to live with himself going out on a loss or a win over a sub par opponet. I belive he wants another tarver type win where he's doubted and pulls it out before he kicks rocks and steps aside. I highly doubt this will be his last fight since i don't see him beating pavlik, but i've said that about hopkins tons of times, some betters would probably be worried if said hop would win. I picked him against joe and look what happened !
