    Hopkins is an oldschool cat. In the way he fights, the way he trains, the way he talks, the way he thinks.

    The **** he is sayin is **** boxers have said for years. We just don't hear it anymore cuz we live in a PC world.

    Ya'll should feel blessed to have someone like that in the sport in this day and age when most athletes are programmed to have the same damn robotic and fake answers to the media, over and over. Hopkins holds nothing back.

        I'm not impressed with calzaghe's victories over kessler and lacy while fighting in europe. I can't name anyone else this dude has fought. B-Hop is an all time great.

          Just so people won't take Hopkins' words too seriously:

          "I have heard a lot about this Kessler kid," Hopkins said. "I have been hearing about his skills mainly from people in the boxing industry. They say he has great talent and now he has a chance to win over America by fighting on HBO. You can't get a better, more important platform to display your abilities."

              There are some people who think Hopkins has no respect for Kessler (or doesn't know who Kessler is).
              There are also some people (idiots) who think Kessler is a bum because Hopkins says so.

              Just proving that it's untrue.

                He said he heard of Kessler from others.

                  well hopkins didnt really say anything derogatory towards kessler. he just said that kessler wasnt in his league. which is partially true. mikkel is a good fighter but he doesnt have the credetials of a hopkins.

                    Hopkins has a long history of ******, self-serving, racist activities and statements, why would this come as a shock to anyone? LOL

                    He's a complete moron who was gifted with exceptional boxing talent. The end.

                      Hopkins also said that he will watch Kessler's fight with Andrade.

                      I doubt he would change his mind on Kessler (that Kessler is a talented fighter) after seeing that fight.

                      Hopkins is the last boxer I'd say was 'gifted' with anything.
