    Roughly what I remember:

    "The day after the fight everyone of you will have your flags half-raised."

      Man a lot of boxers do that. Come on... when Cazares fought Calderon he called Ivan a "cabron" (thats a really bad word for us), Ivan didn't take the Mexican flag and threw it in the ground... Did Hatton throw the USA flag to the floor when Mayweather talked trash about him? Did De la Hoya throw Nicaragua's flag to the ground when Mayorga talked about Oscars Wife? No right? B-Hop's move was disrespectful and what you are saying isn't a good excuse... Even if Tito was talking trash etc... how would B-Hop understand? He doesn't talk spanish.

          Those are mexicans and puerto ricans..I don't know or care how they roll...I only know that putting your finger in a Brothers face is a beatdown.

          Tito was LUCKY that flag was the only thing thrown to the ground.

                lol, yep:
                At Wednesday's prefight press conference, Hopkins, whose nickname is ''The Executioner'' added some theatrics to the event, coming in flanked by two hooded men carrying mock executioner blades.

                He then had a waiter come up to Echols and serve him a ceremonial last meal — grilled cheese and french fries.

                ''Antwun Echols will be used as a sacrificial lamb to tell you I'm serious,'' Hopkins said. ''I've still got the anger it took this long for me.''
