August 09, 2005 - PRESS RELEASE: The new undisputed middleweight champion of the world, Jermain Taylor, has stepped in to assist the American Cancer Society following a snub of the charity by former champ Bernard Hopkins. Hopkins recently asked that The Ring withhold recognition of Taylor as middleweight champion and continue to recognize Hopkins. When The Ring refused the request, Hopkins refused to keep an earlier promise to a Ring Magazine staff member to sign a pair of gloves for an American Cancer Society fundraiser. In the presence of more than one person, Hopkins stated, "#%&* the American Cancer Society. Get Jermain Taylor to sign them." No problem! When Taylor, the favorite son of Little Rock, Arkansas, learned of the situation, he readily agreed to donate an autographed glove and trunks to aid the charity. "I will do everything I can to help the American Cancer Society," said Taylor. "It's a great cause and a great charity."

Wow.Whats up with that.

I know,sounds a little too ****ed up to be true huh? But like i said its on b-talk,on the boxingscene main page too.

That's absolutely pathetic of Hopkins. Talk about your sore losing ****. But I guess that's what we should expect from prison number Y4145.

lol.

Well... Hop always seemed like a bit of an ******* outside the ring,like how his buissness relationships always turn sour,theres obviously something behind that,and Im no Trinidad fan but some the lenths he went to make that fight happen...were a bit douchey.

dats sum ****ed up ****...i wouldn't care what charity it is i would've done it...**** i would've donated like 60 gloves. they've got soo much money how much could it really hurt his(hopkins) to donate autographed gloves

If this is true, and I wouldn't be surprised if it is. I hope J.T KO's Hopkins in the rematch. Looks like Hopkins true colors are coming thru. What a bum.

If this is true, then Bitchkins is a real lowlife. I've to make sure that it is true before I call him a lowlife.
