BHOP vs Manny

Could this fight every happen? I say yes. If they agree it could be at 160

At this point in B-Hop's career is he fast enough to beat Manny? Can B-Hop control the ring enough to beat manny?

I could def see it happen

MarbleheadMaui 2008-135 is a bridge too far for manny

marbleheadmaui 2008-Oscar is going to ruin Manny. This fight is a disgrace.

marbeleheadmaui 2009-Hatton is going to drive Manny to the ropes and hit him until he falls down

marbleheadmaui 2009-Cotto is just too big and too heavy handed for Manny to survive

marbleheadmaui 2010-Manny won't be able to hurt Clottey, Cotto marked him up, I see an upset

marbleheadmaui 2011-Margarito will drop manny and has a legit chance to win

LOL

Hopkins can't make 160 and Pac would be foolish to go up farther than that.

Besides, Pascal is gonna retire Bernard in a few weeks anyway (he said, optimistically)

I think he would drain himself to get that payday dont you? Also Pac would just come in weighing 144 like always.

B-Hop might drain himself for the money, but he'd be pushing it. The guy has been OLD for a while now; cutting the extra pounds he wouldn't have much left to actually win that fight. Sure Glen Johnson did it against Green, but (sorry Sooner) Green is no Manny

To your other point - sure, Pac would probably just come in shape and stay fast, and I guess Hopkins isn't the puncher that a Cotto or Margo is. Still, it's crazy to think about him moving up that far and still beating HOF'ers like B-Hop.

Thats why he should do it. Who in the hell would have thought he could do that? Right? How good does that look. What if he beats PW, B-Hop and maybe a Bradley then retires? His last 3-4 years would be among some the best in the last 25 years or so.

I would like to see Manny against someone who uses mind games like Hopkins, no one ever gets in his face and ruffle's up his feathers.

I really want to see this fight. It would be an amazing match-up.
