After all his trash talk, antics, video montage on his career, build up, ring walk....
Is that the exact scenario Bernard had nightmares about the night before?
Everyone laughing and mocking him, and him making matters worse for himself by making lame exuses despite there being clear video evidence?
I personally think the fact he fell out of the ring was a blessing in disguise, he can make half hearted excuses while claiming meekly ' he was getting frustrated i was winning'
Imagine if he fell face first pacman style instead ? :lol1:
Not the worse way to go out, but still pretty bad. It's unfortunate, however, most legends end up going out on their back/with a loss. The ones that don't are the exception rather than the rule. Too bad for Bernard, he ended up being one of them.
The worst possible scenario for any boxer is dying in the ring or hospital from injuries sustained from the fight.
But then hopkins wouldnt of had to make up exuses and face the extreme embarrassment and mockery.
It wouldn't have been so bad, had me not said that Smith pushed him... I mean c'mon B Hop! do you think people do not have television & slow motion replays these days? :lol1:
:lol1: WTF? No one was even home when he flew out the ring. Stop making sh*t up.
It was embarrassing, especially when he stated "no one is laughing at me now" before the match. He's a legend but he should've known when to say when.
what... anyway Hopkins jumped out the damn ring, he didn't "fall", he leaped out.
worst possible scenario is the arena being nuked by russians and everyone dying
Worst possible scenario would be Bernard Hopkins' alien race coming back to get him to safety and nuking the entire planet out of revenge for what Joe Smith Jr did to him.

This is probably what kovalev is planning before he rage quits boxing because of his defeat to ward.

after watching the replay from a camera above the ring it's obvious Hopkins jumped out through the ropes. .on purpose. im sure he didn't expect a five foot fall landing on his head but he did jump. .why do that? a way out..tryna disqualify the young inexperienced opponent..guess we'll never know but he definitely jumped out. .and im sure that won't be his last fight.. just hope he doesn't turn into Roy Jones. next time pick a bum to beat on and look good. the point is to retire with a W.

I am not a huge BHop fan TBH, he is boring as hell, dirty and a racist.
I did respect him for staying competitive at 50 years old though, that takes physical commitment and mental strength that very few guys have.
I think it was Karma, he got beat by a white boy...
He's American Irish
Not even close to the real thing
And take it from me you can get into the irish's heads very easy
Too hot tempered it's funny winding em up
By what,Threatening to suck them off? You Brits are too effeminate to take seriously.
I'm gonna have to say 'yes'. I don't feel bad for him, he was talkin **** about Roy in a recent interview. Bringing up the knockouts and pointing out the fact that he was never knocked out. He came off really douchey, then he steps in the ring and gets stopped for the first time in humiliating fashion. Karma is a *****! Not trying to throw shade on BHop though, love him or hate him, you GOT to respect him. #100

Yes. Also somebody should've told B-Hop that those mind games don't work on micks.

That's a good idea, I think 40 would be better. 50 year old grandpas fighting 20 year old, young bucks is dangerous and dumb.
I remember when he fought kov
It was hard to watch cos you just know it's wrong
Last night was funny but it could have been a lot worse
Yeah I think its time an age limit is enforced
Maybe boxing licences become invalid when they reach the age of 45?
