  • I'm proud of Hopkins!

    sure he came up short tonight but at age 47 he gave a tough fight to a 29 year old prime Chad Dawson, took some solid shots and dished out a few of his own sharp right hands from time to time. Not many guys that age could last with a guy like Dawson.

    Give it up to Hopkins, he's had an amazing career. Maybe he retires, maybe he takes one more fight, whatever he decides he's a legend at the end of the day.

    I'd be more proud if he didn't constantly hold and headbutt for the whole fight with some occasional flops around the ring.

    And to not try and claim he won a fight he was clearly dominated in

        holding is a very smart thing to do when your up against a younger stronger man

          I'll stop the hate this night, he took the fight when he didn't have to, and he lost a guy he didn't have the tools to beat anymore. All the respect for an ATG career.

          Whether he retires or not, he is a legend.
