Joe's no tactical master, he was clueless to come up with a strategy to even pin Hopkins down, this fight was supposed to be his grand coronation, instead he managed to snatch a contraversial decision against an ageing legend.
      Damn what a good post.

        No that does not follow. Hopkins fans have been too easy to draw moral victories from his LOSS.

          ** Rich stuff.

          Sir Slappy turned Hoppy into a yelping dog, crawling about on all fours with his protector pulled up around his ears for the better part of 10 minutes of the fight trying to squeeze out a point deduction or DQ of Joe.

          Hoppy was sold as old school Philly, prison hardened throwback and been exposed as hanging on way past his due date. Hope he has to promote and payout millions for the baloney he's been giving the public. Let's also not forget that he backed out of a fight with Joe after Tito causing Dibella to sue him for breech of contract and win a million dollar judgement against him.

          You'd never see older greats like Archie Moore or George Foreman doing Hoppy's shameless doggy act. Fairplay, he bought enough time to keep from being knocked out so Don King will throw him some money and he and Tito can have a huggy fest in the consolation match.

          Pitiful way for a supposed great to be remembered.

            Interesting. I knew about Hopkins pulling out of a fight with JC but not the rest of it.
