Reliable sources have told 15rounds.com that legendary world champion Bernard Hopkins will be a guest color analyst for the August 11 IBF Light Heavyweight title fight between champion Tavoris Cloud and Jean Pascal.
The source intimated that it could be more then just a coincidence that the future Hall of Famer was tabbed by Showtime as Hopkins has shown a desire to fight on and he is still the biggest name in the Light Heavyweight division.
Hopkins has two memorable fights with Pascal with a draw and then his historic win last May to become the oldest man to win a world championship and a fight with Pascal could be a fight that Hopkins could very well be interested in.
Hopkins is sitting in for Antonio Tarver, who tested positive for a banned substance following his June 2 fight with Lateef Kayode. Ironically Hopkins has a decision win over Tarver.
