Haye - Hopkins

[skel1983]

Hopkins is no where busy enough nowadays and at heavy that is a bridge too far.

i get where ur comin from mate, but hopkins is a special fighter, love him or hate him

I am a big admirer of his but Hopkins stood a better chance against Maskaev but genetics say he is not a heavyweight and would lose against any decent heavy, and even Lyle would admit Haye is a decent heavy.

I think Hopkins is to clever prime for prime for Haye who still makes alot of mistakes, but the guy is 45 years old and will be facing a big quick puncher id be worried for him now but I would have my money on him firmly to beat Haye as late as 3 years ago.

i agree mate. yeah hopkins is getting old, but ive rit him off so many times before and he just keeps ramming that shit straight back down my throat. hopkins is a genius at work. hes the best at breaking down a fighter bit by bit, and then implementing his gameplan on his opponent. logic says haye is a fight too far, i just think hopkins experience could beat haye. im not saying for sure i think that will happen, but the guy is a mutherfukkin genius
