The ageless wonder Bernard Hopkins, just months away from his 50th birthday, defends his International Boxing Federation, World Boxing Association, and International Boxing Association light heavyweight championship against Russian knock out artist World Boxing Organization Sergey Kovalev in a unification bout Saturday night in Atlantic City, NJ.
At 49 years of age, Hopkins wants to box in two premiere bouts before turning 51-years-old on Jan. 15, 2016. He said he would like to face off against the undefeated Floyd Mayweather Jr. (45-0) once he gets to 49 wins.
