I've read that it could be on the Hopkins / Roy Jones undercard.

To be honest. I think the Khan fight would be far more interesting if what you say is true. Jones/Hopkins is a fight that just doesn't need to happen.

And the sad thing is that nobody will care.

It's like two old men fighting in a pub car park after chucking out time, completely irrelevant and unnecessary to the sport of boxing.

RJJ should've retired a long time ago. He's totally ruining his legacy. It's almost painful to watch such a great fighter in his day still going. Hopkins has still got a fair bit left in the tank, it's hard to believe he is 45!!

the only reason it can be happening in 2010 is money surely?

I've always said RJJ should never have drained himself back down to light-heavy after beating Ruiz. After that his punch resistance had gone and he starting losing his speed and reflexes, and he never really had the fundementals to fall back on. To think at one point we could've have seen Jones fight Lewis. How good would that have been?
