    You know how hard it is to live in Philly and not eat a cheesesteak for over 20 years? I'd die.

        Yeah, he's vain about that **** too, just ask him about his waistline.

        I think it was during the Tarver fight where Jim Lampley was talking about 'Nard's 29" waist at the time, and mentioned how proud of it he was.

        Can't remember the exact quote though.

          "Both men are tremendously proud of the way they look."

          I thought that was a tad absurd, because... I don't think either of them are particularly blessed with their looks.

              I actually was thinking that exact thing the last time I watched Erik Morales beat Daniel Zaragoza.

                I wouldn't be proud to look like either of them, and that's the damn truth.

                  Hopkins is a great fighter, what he's doing at over 40 years of age is remarkable, definitely a great fighter.

                    I got so much respect for Bernard. A true ATG fighter.
