B-Hop Making frontline news Australia

He wont be assinnated because they are better at protecting the Presidents now, but there's no doubt there will be an attempt. I still think there are plenty of crazy racist people in this counrty that would attempt to kill him.

Way to sell America short B Hop. We've come very far since the 60's. It'll take at least a year...

Obama will be o.k reguardless. America will have no choice to accept the change. I know one thing Obama didn't come this far to let scary people tell him " don't do it,you'll get killed." what type of sell out thinking is that. every step of progress black people got in this country was gotten from shedding blood. Many are Martyr's ready for change. Obama for Prez!

he's not smart enough to sell a fight. He wants to pull a mayweather, but hes to old.

Bernard talks too much. Having listened to his comments at the press conferences, he seems to drone on and on about nothing in particular. I know he's trying to sell the fight but its not even PPV so why bother.

he sure won alot of fans with that statement, it makes me question his iq.

Bernard Hopkins + Politics = :banghead:

I like this little nuggett: Hopkins, 43, served jail time in his teens for "beating up pimps and prostitutes" before rebuilding his life through a successful career in boxing. Let me repeat: "and prostitutes" How can you not like Hopkins Addison?

No I know what you mean, and it's relieving to hear that - but Bernard is always in the mischief, and I think he's past the age to be saying such innapropriate and childish hyperbole. Serious as the subject is. :skull: I can appreciate your articulate interpretation of the situation, but it's always the idiots and crazies you have to worry about with a subject like this one. Hopkins has no right to talk about another man's life, and most people know better. I totally agree that Hopkins has no right to speak of another mans life and looks like a boob doing it but sadly their are the crazy idiots out their and you always have to be wary of the presidents life taken by assasination and sad as it is to say I think Obama would have more to worry about than say John Mcain. I dont say Hilary because I think she would have to worry just as much. Either way Hop should stick to Knocking out Calzaghe.

I dont think he meant this in the wrong way. I feel he made a statement that both alot of white and black america may have thought of. I am totally for Obama and think he wants whats best for our country and has no real personal agenda. He kind of reminds me of JFK, young, relatively green but geniune and very charismatic. Unfortunatley I think B hop has a valid point, god forbid!

Time will tell, hopefully hop's insight isn't as accurate as one may think.

Hopkins is stripping away at my many year long respect and admiration for him ever so incrementally. :pat: I dont think he meant this in the wrong way.

Seems B-Hop's feet have warmed up from the UK now and now taking a swipe at Obama. http://www.smh.com.au/news/us-election/executioner-warns-of-obama-assassination/2008/02/12/1202760273878.html Hopkins is stripping away at my many year long respect and admiration for him ever so incrementally. :pat:

I thought Obama was part white. i thought so as well!

I thought Obama was part white.

Bhop needs to worry about boxing! joe c is not gonna be a walk in the park!

history would seem to support mr. hopkins's insight.

That's kinda sick...but in a way true. I've had the same thoughts. I like Obama, but the thought of him getting shot is pretty realistic sadly.
