Bernard Hopkins wants to fight David Haye for the Heavyweight Title

Once he's done with his tune up fight this week and Roy Jones early next year, Bernard Hopkins said he wants to challenge for the heavyweight title of the world. His best opportunity to get there is a former cruiserweight who is making waves at heavyweight. David Haye has just taken one of the heavyweight alphabet titles by beating Nikolai Valuev in their recent title fight. Haye is a smaller heavyweight when compared with the champion Klitschko brothers. Hopkins is always looking for new challenges and at 45 next year he will likely be a bit older than George Foreman was when he won the heavyweight title. That would remarkably make Hopkins the oldest heavyweight title holder ever further cementing his legacy as an all time great. Bernard doesn't seem to slow down with age as he has produced some of his greatest fights after he turned 40. This will also be great for boxing as it will definitely be a huge fight if Hopkins ever takes on Haye in the heavyweight division. Of course, he's got two fights he needs to win before any realistic discussions about a mega fight with Haye. Of course, Haye would have to beat John Ruiz and whoever he fights after that as well. Keep an eye out to see how this one evolves.
