Jones and hopkins: Take note at what happened 25 years ago

[holmcall]

soooo what does that have to do with Jones and Hopkins?

It put to shame their ame effort this month.

Very true.

But Hopkins and Jones are in their 40's.

So I def did not expect them to compete like Hagler and Hearns who were in their near primes when they fought.

Me neither. I just didn't think they should have competed at all. To me. it was like Botha-Holly--or Hill-LaLonde--or Cotzee-Barkley. What did it prove? And the PPV figures seem to bear this thinking out to some degree.

Iran Barkley vs. Gerry Coetzee was the greatest display of heavyweight boxing skill I have ever witnessed !
