Hopkins Calling Out Adamek?

[littlebif]

I favor Bernard but there is a possiblity that Hopkins might lose to a white boy again

[Hoggmeister]

great match up, id love to see it happen.

Like this one.Adamek is strong and explosive,good body mix.I honestly think Hopkins could keep him in check for a win.If a Cunningham and pretty green Banks are timing him with rights....Banks had no 2nd gear,Adamek just summed him up and pounced,adjusted well.Hopkins could not just look to sharp shoot though....waiting around to much.This would be a solid fight all the way.

Would be a great fight, definitely winnable for Hopkins who could outbox Adamek imo.

Who knows if he won this one he could even move up again and fight Nikolay Valuev or Chageav and go for a heavyweight belt, it's possible,

I think I'd fancy Manny Pacquaio against Valuev let alone Hopkins who would probably win every round.

You know I said it was a high risk/low reward fight in the FNF thread.......but I am warming up to the idea.

I mean if Hopkins does lose, I mean he is like 100. But if he wins, winning the cruiserweight title would be really something (at any age).

As good as Adamek has looked Hopkins is no fool, he doesn't call out people 25 pounds heavier unless he sees something in their game that he could exploit. I would assume its the lack of explosive speed, needs to be set to punch, etc.

Yeah i gues the more I think about it, even if Hop lost, there is no shame in that. He could outbox him in a caution first kind of fight. I would favor Adamek as of now but idbe pulling for Hopkins. It would be a spectacular achievement for Bernard.
