That is if he can get B-Hop to fight him.
The shirt that you're quoting in your sig is a photoshop.

Oh and Hopkins wont it the floor. But he'll lost handily and the complain as if he didn't.

Definitely isn't the same Hopkins that beat up De La Hoya, but still a good enough Hopkins to make it an interesting fight. My question is Pavlik's compared skill to Winky, and not Bernard. I'll give it to Pavlik, but I want Bernard to take a decision and retire.

Whatever it takes to set up Abraham vs Pavlik

I'm not a big fan of the executioner, probably because Roy Jones is my fav, but I honestly think that Pavlik is going to take it. He has a lot of power in those hands and even if B-Hop comes in unbelievable shape, Pavlik will be a notch over. Either way, I think winner of that fight should take on winner of Calzaghe-and Roy Jones

Um I see Hopkins doing a whole bunch of baking up and countering trying to avoid actual fighting and I see Pavlik being the aggressor and it going to a decision to Pavlik.

I think Hopkins is a little too crafty for Pavlik but I would love nothing more than to see Pavlik KO the useless tit!

But then it would just be a rematch of B-Hop Calzaghe, I don't see the point in that!
