(The Executioner's Chance at Redemption)
Sixteen years after the first meeting between B-Hop and Roy Jones Jr. they have finally come to an agreement and signed to fight. Jones was hung up on a 60-40 split for a long time which had stalled negotiations between the two. The bout agreements they have signed for this fight apparently have a clause in them that states that should either fighter win by knockout they will receive 60% of the fight money as opposed to just half. This means that both fighters will be even more inclined to go for the stoppage victory in their much anticipated, and long delayed rematch. The fight happening counts on Jones getting past Danny Green in December, and Hopkins has been quoted as saying he would like a "stay busy" fight before the two meet as well.
