I was more concerned about Hopkins' billy-goating and other such **** than anything else....I figured there'd be some nasty cuts, but they never materalized. I actually had a hard time watching the entire fight...dirty fighters like Bernard enfuriate me, and even if that weren't the case, Hopkins can turn any fight into an ugly mess that nobody would pay to see, and this fight was no exception. Horrible to watch from an entertainment perspective, and barely mentionable technically.

        So...there's one boxer that I respect but can't stand to watch because he's a dirty fighter, and I'm a hater? Maybe you ought not to jump to conclusions, buddy. I dislike ALL dirty fighters, though Hopkins is one of the more blatant. Honestly, there are plenty of reasons to actually hate Hopkins, if I were that type...he's a crybaby, he turns every fight he's in into an ugly mess, he's got a big mouth, he's arrogant, self-centered, narcissistic, and the list goes on and on....

          To be fair thats some pretty strong hate right there. Barely mentionable technically? Bernard Hopkins?

              A thread dedicated to people talking about how much they enjoyed seeing Calzaghe getting knocked down vs one guy that considered Hopkins a dirty fighter who can turn any fight into a mess?

              I guess we'll just have to disagree about which hatred appears stronger.

              I'll let Stickman answer for himself, but IMO the comments about "barely mentionable technically" referred to the fight, rather than just Hopkins. And he's right. It was not a good fight, it was messy, there were very few clean punches landing...I thought it was a horrible fight to be honest.

                I agree the fight was awful.

                I haven't looked through the entire thread either, bit over the endless Joe hate threads.

                  And to be fair, he's only been that way the last 4 or 5 years. And when I say "barely mentionable, technically", I'm referring to the constant clinching, and the total shutdown of activity he tries to impose on his opponents. LIke I said before...I respect his ability and smarts for allowing him to remain competetive for so long against strong young opponents, but his dirty infighting just puts me completely off the guy. Another one I can't stand because of his dirty tactics is Casamayor.
