Who else is inspired by Bernard Hopkins' story?

[Xyei]

he's as big a ***** inside the ring as he was when he robbed innocent people...

I forgot that Hyperion hates Hopkins too.

[-Hyperion-]

******.

a lot of people make bad decisions when they are kids (like de la hoya ****in 14 year old girls for example), especially if you live in an unpleasant environment. Point is hopkins turned all that around and lived a great life since making those mistakes. That's the point of the thread.

yeah, illegally headbutting people in the face intentionally in a ****ing sport(just a ****ing sport)........this guy is such an inspiration.....

no proof equals didnt happen, btw...

More inspiring than you....

Hopkins is a inspiration!!!!!!!!!!

[Jim Jeffries]

He went from robbing old ladies at gunpoint to robbing fight fans expecting to see a clean, entertaining fight. What an inspiration.

says a guy that uses the same size as me in sigs......

dirty fighters get nothing from me......

[Sin City]

he is the number 1 hater of hopkins though. And he damn sure isn't 43 years old, so my point is there is no way he could possible know what it was like when bhop was growing up.

The guy has spent hundreds of hours talking down on hopkins and tries to discredit each and every accomplishment he ever done. Its borderline obsessive. He acts as if hopkins ****ed his wife or some **** (maybe he did, who knows?).

His biggest accomplishment have come against smaller opposition.. he started his career of at light heavy couldn't hang and went down to middleweight. What is there to like about an ex-con who robbed innocent people?


I too don't like Hopkins

Kayjay? Kayjay? No Kayjay?

Oh hyperion, sup? Though to be honest, Hopkins is my favorite fighter, but I'm not really inspired by his story. Probably because I've heard it so many damn times

The two biggest names on his resume are ODH and Trinidad. Just so happens there aren't any bigger names in the sport.

So let me ask you: if ODH offered you (or insert ANY pro boxers name here) $10,000,000 to fight him would you turn it down?

If you (or insert ANY pro boxers name here) were trying to unify the middleweight division and the only other belt that didn't belong to you was owned by Trinidad (40-0), would you turn it down?

LOL, **** no, no boxer in their right mind would. So this arguement is weaksauce.

he started his career of at light heavy couldn't hang and went down to middleweight.

He started his career at light heavy in 1988 right after he got out of jail, needed some work and came back two years later. WOW

What is there to like about an ex-con who robbed innocent people?

I don't know, I'm an ex-con who robbed and did time and plenty of people like me. People change and if you can't see that hopkins turned his life around for the better, then I don't know what to tell ya. And that's what this thread is about: turning ones life around for the better.
