Hopkins/RJJ is on - WTF?

[Themantonio]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Sucked in to Danny Green! After his win over Jones he pranced around and thought he'd been able to play the spoiler, but look what we have here, the rematch he said he'd just ruined is happening and unfortunately for him, its kinda at his expense coz his fight with Hop fell through and I am now wondering (jus like after his Roy figh) who he'll be fighting next?!?

Yet another fight where I will be hoping for the elusive double knockout

[Zilla]

I think Hopkins will make him pay.

I can see Jones outboxing him, but whether Jones can keep it up for 12 good rounds without getting his chin checked too much is the issue. You struggle to imagine Hopkins ever being stopped, but Jones can go at any point in the fight. If Jones manages to go the distance, I can see him being up on points and taking the win.

It's a curious fight for me. It would be hilarious if Jones beats him at this stage of the game and after the Green debacle.

No way Roy can get a KO. He just doesn't have that kill instinct anymore. He could have ended the Trinidad fight anytime he wanted and never pulled the trigger. He spanked Lacy left and right and never pulled the trigger. He showed Anthony Hanshaw what an old man can still do and he never pulled the trigger.

Plus, it's Hopkins.

Green should have been thinking more about exposure than money.

This is nothing more then Hopkins wanting to get a piece of Jones in the ring to avenge a lot of shit talk since the first fight nothing more nothing less...Hopkins is still a Marquee name that is a legit P4P fighter.....This is personal for sure

Regardless there's no way to defend this bullshit. Hopkins is apparently Mr. Legacy & yet he's fighting a guy who was just stopped in a round. Granted Green priced himself out by being a dickhead thinking he was an equal draw, but still this shit is a joke. I hear there's a guy names Chad Dawson who would surely accept terms.

The fact is if either of the two guys whose names we can't mention here were doing this, people would be all over it.

[belakbox]

lol. my wish came true when green fought jones. I'm hoping Hopkins can do the same inside of 1 minute

[Master]

I hope it is free to watch.

[porkypara]

Shit match up but it would be great if Jones could beat Hopkins just to listen to Hopkins excuses after the fight.

[Spicoli]

Funny the irony.Jones gets a young viable but still somewhat green Hopkins many moons ago and now Hopkins gets..(?) a badly faded and shot version of Jones so many years later.Dont want to see this...think Jones could get damaged,and thats fighting mostly anyone who can compete at top level I believe.

[Pugilistic]

I ain't interested in this fight at all but people can't criticize either for this fight.

Both guys are at the end of the careers and there legacy's are sealed. They should be allowed to get some paydays.

I don't think I said Jones will get a KO. His best chance is obviously to take it the distance and try and box smart.

Cool and I hope to see Mccallum vs Toney 4 on the undercard. Now on a serious note; There really is no other way for either 1 of them to go and I hope it is the last 1 for both of them. But if Hopkins does beat Roy then there could be a 3rd fight. And I know we will be looking forward to that 1.

[El Kabong]

As much as I would like to see RJJ go out on a win, I know this will be like Calzaghe-Jones. B-Hop will carry him so that the fans in Hopkins mind "Get what they came for"

[Diane]

I just can't believe that this is going to be a frickin PPV.
