Hopkins/Green off

[Gandalf]

I don't mind too much. It's not a fight that interests me really, I would still much rather see Jones Jr/Hopkins 2.

I know that isn't a popular thing to say, but I think Jones might be alright against an old Hopkins.

i don't really fancy either fight, i'd rather see Hopkins/Adamek at Cruiserweight or Hopkins/Dawson at Lightheavy

Yes, both of those would be very nice too. Hopkins has to do something after this warm up, so I'm very interested to see where he goes.

hell even a fight against Bute would be interesting, and if Bute won it'd make a fight between him and the winner of the Super 6 tourney that much more intriguing

That would be interesting...I was wondering why Bute wasn't in the super 6..

Jones just needs to stop whoreing himself and his legacy now

[jon09]

I really did not care for this fight anyways.

I think Green's 50/50 demands might be reasonable considering he's the main draw in Australia, where the fight will be taking place. I'd wager it earns a lot more coin there than in the U.S.

[PRIDE OF BOSTON]

As I'm not a big Green fan I am pretty unbias but I'll say that if the fight takes place in Australia then Green IS a big enough draw to warrant a 50/50 split... Fact.

No. You're correct. Jones Jr. vs. Hopkins 2 is still the fight to be made. However, I think that Hopkins will take him out.

As for Green: he's delusional. Who the hell is Green to demand a 50/50 purse split against a man -- who was over 40 at the time -- that gave Kelly Pavlik a complete boxing clinic. Although Hopkins didn't look that good in his last fight, I think he'll be in great shape against Roy. Roy has become the victim of 'Father Time': his speed, reflexes and defensive skills have gone through a downward spiral and have exposed his chin.

Considering this, and Jones VERY suspect chin, it may seem curious that I would like to see Hopkins beat Jones. However, if Jones is willing to take the fight, which I'm sure he'll jump on, he opens himself up to whatever beating Hopkins brings to the ring.

I thinks it's a testament to Pavlik's insecurity over his skills that he didn't push for a rematch with Hopkins. Pavliks' stock dropped a lot after that clinic.
