Hopkins Heated at Roy Jones, Will Try To Knock Him Out

[freeloada]

Midrounds his trainer will tell him.

"Roy you gotta keep throwing combinations, that's how Joe beat him!"

I for one am happy this fight as made. I like both guys, but I also don't want them fighting any of the younger fighters like Dawson. I'd rather see Dawson take on someone like Cloud or something.
That being said if they both win their fights in December I hope after this fight they can walk away from the sport. I doubt they will but that would be great for their last fight. I just wish it wasn't on PPV.

Very much a PPV-worthy fight, especially with the promise of extra money to the winner by KO.

ye but kessler came to fight joe c bhop looked like a mug cheating didnt come to fight like he new he was in too deep ye bhop looked great against pavlik and jones against lacy but they were too over hyped over rated fighters pavliks a good puncher same with lacy but limited in any other boxing quality this fight ain gona happen some one will get injured or jones will get k,o by green cause greens a big guy hard hitting machine see him spoiling the party cause jones is stil the guy who everyone was calling to retire after the calzaghe punishment he aint got better since then

[DigitalBeast]

Doesn't Jones have to get through Green first? Green is no lacy and is far more dangerous IMO.

Unless he gets caught, I think he will.

[AntDawg]

Hopkin can clearly crack, he just isnt an overly aggresive fighter who go's for the KO often IMO

Prime Hopkins would But I don't think he would ko jones.I mean what was his last KO anyway? Oscar?

[EL ANIMAL]

yeah that might work if hopkins actually had power or went for the ko instead of going for a boring/cheating 12 rounds of holding, headbutting, ball punching, turning his back, etc.

lmaoooooo!!! Good old bernard you gotta luv it!!!!!!

Hopkins has never been KO'ed let alone decisively been beat by anyone but Roy by decision. Hopkins has never been swollen, cut/bleed or really hurt. One of Jones jr's keys to victory is to get Hop moving and make him tired in the late rate rounds. I doubt Jones gets a KO. Maybe a stoppage but even then that's by a very very long shot.

On the flip side, Jones has lost 5 fights, 2 by way of KO, two being by decision and one by DQ. Jones is statistically more likely to lose by KO than Hopkins. I'm surprised Jones went this route seeing he hasn't KO'ed anyone recently other than the overly hyped Jeff Lacy which was by TKO.

I see the fight going all 12 for the season ATG vets with both of them getting a well deserved 50/50 fair share.

The hype of the fight should be an ATG feature. The 24/7 (assuming they will do it) should go down as the best since Mayweather De La Hoya.

I heard Roy has lost a few pounds of muscle, and wasn't himself. Maybe, and it is a biggie, he got KO'd because of that.

[DigitalBeast]

The battle of grandpa's.

that's how the fight should be labeled.

That's "grandpas". You not from an English speaking country, or just

[Bright-Eyes]

What card will Hopkins fight his tuneup on? The pavlik williams fight perhaps?
