Representatives of both boxing fighters have agreed to a March 11th, 2006 fight. The 12-round light heavyweight fight is scheduled to be shown on HBO pay-per-view.
Jones (49-4, 38 KOs), who turns 37 on January 16th is a former middleweight, super middleweight, light heavyweight and heavyweight champion , Jones is considered the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world.
Hopkins (46-4-1, 32 KOs), who turns 41 in January as well, made a middleweight-record 20 title defenses before losing by decision twice to Jermain Taylor this year.
The boxing fight would be a rematch of a 1993 bout, which Jones won by unanimous decision. "I think it's very exciting. Bernard is very happy about it and so is Roy. It's fantastic," said Richard Schaefer.
