Yeah it's true. I was young and dumb (18 years old, which was older the hopkins was when he committed his crimes (he was 16 or 17 when he was sent to PRISON)). I learned from my mistakes and grew as a person.
He fought everyone during his 10 year reign. He lost to Taylor when he was 40. What more should he have done? He was the first person to unify the middleweight division since Hagler, he was champion for 10+ years and defended the title 20 times. He loses to taylor twice, both very close decisions, comes back at 41 and beats the top dog at light heavy Tarver. At 42 and 43 he is still very competitive and although boring fights, he beats Winky and loses a slit decision to Calzaghe and even knocks him down.
yeah, nothing great about bhop.
As far as accomplishments, there are only a select few that have accomplishment more out of todays active fighters (mayweather, roy jones, pacquaio maybe).Comment

I know a couple ex-cons too that are good people.. I wouldn't take em up as roll models though.
anyway, for regular people it slides but not for people in the spot light and who are supposed to set examples.Comment

You forget to mention that Winky had to balloon up 15 pounds to fight Bernard...Yeah it's true. I was young and dumb (18 years old, which was older the hopkins was when he committed his crimes (he was 16 or 17 when he was sent to PRISON)). I learned from my mistakes and grew as a person.
