The Good:
According to an interview on the site that talks about boxing, Bernard Hopkins has "nothing else to prove" and has "no motivation" to continue fighting. After promising his mother that he wouldn't fight past 40, the now-43-year-old seems to be calling it quits. I, for one, certainly wish he'd have respected his promise to his mother and retired 3 years ago, after the two Taylor losses.
The Bad:
We'll have to listen to B-Hops fans complain and say how great a fighter he was. Yes, he's one of the top 10 Middleweights ever, maybe even top 5, but his last 5 years were nothing to write home to mom about.
The Ugly:
