Bernard Hopkins Calling out Welterweights

doesnt matter homie..that shit aint easy exspecially on the pro level You got to be kidding me, Morrade Hakkar is the worst title challenger I've seen in my life.

ok i understand that hopkins had to fight a mandatory at that time, but why was he still fighting undersized middleweights who posed no threat at all? by the time of that hakkar fight he had already cleaned out the 160lb division and beat the biggest threat in that weight range in trinidad. the only legit threat left down at 160 was the 154 lb. champ winky wright and he avoided him citing "high risk, no reward" to fight the green jermain taylor for what probably amounted to an extra million bucks if that. moving up to 175 and facing pre weight drain jones wasn't that big of a priority (60-40 I'll kick your ass, lol) until he got ko'd by tarver and was toast. not even a remote possibility of moving up to 168 and fighting calzaghe. larry exposed him.

Another Merchant masterpiece. I've said this before, I'll say it again. HBO Boxing will not be the same when Larry Merchant leaves us (hopefully not anytime soon). Larry Merchant is pure comedic gold.

4 of the biggest names on hopkins' resume were "smaller" men than him. he's made his name off it,why should it change now?

larry merchant makes no sense at all here, whats bhop's fault? Fight a mandatory? The guy here ranked n 2 was a bum? HBO televising it? None of that is BHop's fault...if theres a fault is in the system, too many ABC belts and managers paying for getting their fighters in the position to be a mandatory. Larry knows all that, but still behaves as if he doesnt, being really an ass here.

nice, now go gag on another black fighters cock Im sure there is a Mayweather thread you should be posting in Scrawny wigger :rofl: also it was the only video of Hopkins i could find with him calling them out Thread made for shitting on Hopkins

:rofl::rofl: Man, I don't know what to make of that. I've never seen an interviewer be so "forward", I know it's Larry Merchant and all but, Can't make my mind up if it was good or bad

Never seen that video before. Hopkins is right though. If the WBC wants him to fight a mandatory he has to. It's not his fault the other guy wasn't any good. Also, Larry said that nobody wanted to watch the fight. If that was true why was HBO there? HBO fuelled the problem by showing a dud fight. Merchant got paid that night because Hopkins was on HBO. Hopkins is also right about the weight classes. There are too many of them.

ROFl! :owned: Larry has lot of balls to talk to B-Hop like that.
