Should Hopkins have moved up to Light Heavy a few years ago?

Allen was a safe bet but how about Hopkins Echols 3?

There wasn't one.

I was asking you why didn't they go with that one instead?

My mistake.

Did you see either one of the fights? Hopkins beat him...even with the throw down manuever he beat him soundly over 12 & then dropped him in 10 the second time. No use in that & the fact that Echols got his ass handed to him twice in the meantime, once by Mundine & then he got TKO'd by Ikeke, pretty much ruled him out completely.

Hopkins & Echols had a serious hate on for each other & I seriously doubt that Bernard wanted to help Echols earn another cent.
