Bernard Hopkins Retires!!

[Mr. Philadel]

In a recent interview with another boxing website (most of you know which one) Bernard Hopkins announced he is retiring from the sport of boxing at 43. He went on to say he respects Joe but thought he won, that he's too old to put on the kind of pressure he normally would, and that he wanted to thank all of his fans for supporting his career and hopes he goes down as an all time great. Thanks for the fights B-Hop, you truly are a throwback fighter which is why some of the new, young idiots who don't understand boxing can't appreciate you.B-HOP ONE OF THE GREAT MW BOXERS OF ALL TIME (TOP 3 or so)

Rock on fam!

First he promised his mom he would not fight after 40, then he said he would retire after winning another title, now this.

Bernard Hopkins is one of the greatest boxers of all time, if I had style and traits of a boxer Hopkins would be right up there with Sugar Ray (the real one) and Money May

Blow me General ****head.

Check the MMA thread bout GSP vs Silva, I don't think Silva would destroy GSP it would be a closer fight.
With Hopkins, he needs to not let his pride take the best of him and I don't know why everyone is assuming he will come back. If he does he would be atleast 44 or 45. Do you really think he's gonna be in the right shape. Don't jump to conclusions right away just because a few posters say it

This is kind of sad for me. I always liked Nard. My second favorite prizefighter of all time. But all good things must come to an end. I hope he has continued success as a promoter and as a father/husband. B-Hop EX!!!!

I know, can't wait to see this. Fitch is good but doesn't comapre to GSP

It's a great storyline, will Fitch win, break the all time straight win records and the title? Or will GSP finally make his first successful title defense.

Lol I think Fitch is a bit overrated personally. I think Koscheck is better then him, especially after watching Koscheck's last fight and seeing how much he's improved his stand up. I look at Kos as a GSP type who due to superior athleticism will just improve more and more
