[Eric t]

Thanks Hounddawg for doing the RBR

Very disappointing.

Could he have continued or was he gone!!!

[Hounddawg]

Well not a good debut, and as the commentator said it's not rugby League, Hoppa needs a jab and needs to know how to defend against one.

[Brute]

No surprise.

He needs to base himself in america and get a good trainer, jeff mayweather!!!!

I don't know going off his last fight with Mirovic, when hurt he looks out on his feet, but he was put to the ground twice ala Ben Edwards style in round 2... but was moving from the ground, before Cortez waived it off.

Hopefully sonny bill can make it if he decides to keep boxing, he is young, damn we need a good heavyweight, mirovicand meehan and hoppa just ain't good enough and solo's chin isn't the best.

Hopefully if he switches to boxing it won't be when he is 30.

hopoate is a novice fighter when he is not allowed to hold he has got no defence against the jab or any other punch .He should have taken care of business here ben edwards , alex leapai, michael kirby,or shane cameron to get some skills before taking of to the U.S.and fight McCall caliber fighters.

Hopoate dropped in round two of IBA boutAdrian Warren
May 23, 2009 - 4:14PM

Former rugby league star John Hopoate suffered a brutal second round stoppage loss against former heavyweight world champion Oliver McCall at the Orleans Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.

American McCall, who held the WBC heavyweight world title between September 1994 and February 1995, won the vacant IBA Intercontinental Championship by demolishing the Australian in just under five minutes.

Hopoate, who had only 13 previous professional fights compared to 60 logged by McCall, was competitive in the first round.

He landed some right hand power shots, while the 44-year-old McCall found his range with some snappy left jabs.

One minute into the second round, McCall landed a number of big right hand punches, including a jolting uppercut to send the 34-year-old Australian to the floor.

Hopoate quickly climbed off the canvas, but was unable to survive another flurry of right hand blows a few seconds later.

He was knocked down again and experienced referee Joe Cortez quickly halted the bout.

The result made Hopoate's record 11 wins (11 KOs) and three losses, while McCall improved his log to 52 victories (37 KOs) and nine defeats.

McCall, who entered the bout as a strong betting favourite, was fighting for the first time since October 2007
