A rematch between Bernard Hopkins and Felix Trinidad will not come cheap. According to father/trainer Felix Trinidad Sr, promoter Don King presented Tito with an offer of $15 million dollars for a Hopkins rematch. As previously reported on krikya360.com, King recently came to Puerto Rico to meet with Trinidad and discuss terms for a Hopkins rematch. Although Trinidad has been chasing for a Hopkins rematch since the 2001 knockout loss, King claims that it was Hopkins who reached out to them to initiate negotiations for a November meeting.

Hopkins is contradicting himself by making this fight, he said he didn't want to fight Jones again because of how badly he lost to Calzaghe, then now he's making a fight against the guy who got dominated by Jones prior to the Calzaghe fight and lost to Hopkins himself in one sided fashion 8 years ago. What a pointless fight.Comment

Trinidad's on crack if he thinks he'll get that much. Bernard sure as hell would want probably twice that much. And I don't see how this useless fight would demand that much for either guy. ****** fight, that I doubt happens...Comment

Damn...Tito got that much for gettin his ass whipped by Roy? Damn Don King must have a stash somewhere...lolComment

Actually it's Jones who said he does not want to face Roy.Originally posted by The_Executioner View Post
Besides, how is Hopkins doing contradicting himself? He has not even bothered to comment on this yet... Only Don King is allegedly saying Hopkins was interested, which well.... you know.. lol
Read the article mate, rather than coming out with random stories.Comment

I don't want to see Trinidad anymore unless it's at middle and below.
Essentially he should never be fighting above 160 maximum.
That fight with Roy Jones was sad. Tito couldn't make a dent, and he actually started pretty well. He made no impact on Jones whatsoever.......too small.Comment
