bernard hopkins is not a legend

some many brain washed fans its sad leonard is a legend.. he beat duran, hagler, hearns all atgs in prime. hopkins resume = tarver, blown up tito, blown up pavlik lmao

hopkins probably top 20 all time. top 5 pure middleweights at 160 its how an ex-felon like him made it back into the system and redeemed himself that makes him a living legend.

Why you so BUTT HURT Bernard dominated Kelly Pavlik and made him into a drunk:boxing::boxing::boxing: B HOP is an ATG. I like his front teeth gap haha is that what it is. How sad is it that the ts's biggest claim to fame in life is being a Kelly Pavlik internet butt boy.

Trolls trolls trolls

You're just looking for some attention aren't you? Well, Congrats:haha:

I do think Hopkins is better than his resume. I feel his resume is overblown somewhat but he is still the oldest champion of all time beating a young hungry fighter in Pascal. He is clearly a highly skilled boxer and I wouldn't put that many people as favorite to beat him in his prime but yeah, his resume is overrated at the same time.

the cowardice of bernard hopkins - loses to roy jones so drains himself to make 160 so he can avoid him for the rest of his career - beating a skill less big welterweight in trinidad who made his name overpowering smaller opponents in his 'biggest win' - beats midget de la hoya at a catch weight (what a joke this guy is, camping out at such a low weight) - loses to bum taylor twice - moves up to fight tarver (one of only risks he made, to cash in) - fights middleweight winky at 170 catchweight (winky fat as hell, head butts him to decision) - fights smw calzaghe (makes another smaller guy move up) and loses while trying to get out of the fight feigning injury - fights middleweight champion pavlik at 170 catchweight (catchweight king hopkins?) pavlik also another guy who made his name overpowering smaller opponents not out boxing them - fights old, shot roy jones (even after calzaghe fought him yet he gets no stick for it) - waits until dawson loses to pascal who is a one dimensional fighter, cherry picks pascal - gets forced into fighting dawson by wbc, chickens out of fight faking injury (like he tried vs joe calzaghe) - loses rematch to dawson (obviously) - ducks andre ward how can a guy who had a trilogy with robert allen be considered a great fighter? hopkins has had 3 catchweights vs smaller opponents! constantly tries to make fighters move up to fight him while reluctant to do it himself, only did it at end of career to cash in and it paid off. catchweight king, cherry picker, ducker + coward = bernard hopkins if a moderator removes this thread then it just slows clear bias and impartial moderation towards their favorite fighters!!!! Man if he's that bad then how do you live with your pathetic life in comparison? Shouldn't you have eaten a bullet by now?

I await seckondz out and Phillys finest to put you straight. he doesn't need to be put straight, his account should be put down.

lol at calling tito a skill-less big welterweight. talk about not knowing what the **** you're talking about. the guy was one of the best punchers of all time, in power p4p, and in putting punches together. he may have been limited, but skill-less? rofl.

Right on the head!!

bernard hopkins, best win, was against antonio tarver, with the jean pascal rematch, a runner up...that said, had bernard hopkins, beat fellow atg roy jones, when roy jones was a phenom, jermaine taylor 2x, and atg joe calzaghe, and tried to make a fight and beat atg james toney (never understood why he didn't realize he needed toney to cement a solid legacy), i would rate bernard hopkins, up there with the best of 'em...

This can pretty much be done with every other fighter out there; and it probably has been done come to think of it...

Eh, I think you're stretching it. I don't like Hopkins or his style at all though.

How can a guy who fought mario veit twice and Tucker Pudwil be considered a legend? Actually it's quite hilarious to compare the resumes of hopkins and calzaghe Hopkins best wins: Trinidad Glen Johnson Kelly Pavlik Jean Pascal Antonio Tarver Antwun Echols Winky Wright Oscar De La Hoya Howard Eastman Calzaghe: Jeff Lacy Kessler 43 year old hopkins then it's umm... Tucker pudwil calzaghe is not a legend and neither is hopkins

im stating facts, looks like a lot of people are brainwashed into thinking he was a legend. how many legends need 3 catchweights vs smaller opponents, wait.. thats right.. smaller opponents!

SMH...Not another one
