    B-Hop acually turned to the commentators and said he was sad that they didn't go 15 rounds in boxing no more... B-Hops stamnia was just insane

                Glen Johnson was undefeated, but just got schooled by Hopkins. He sort of went downhill with his first loss, and lossed his next two fights.

                Rematch was out of the question then.

                  Hopkins would ask for 80% that's why he'd go to the others first.

                    johnson has a good style is attractive to watch and has improved alot, but b-hop has hit a wholenew level in terms of how he has developed. johnson has a good style but for an old fighter he doesn't have the ideal style, against a younger fitter fighter i dont think he would be able to keep up the workrate.

                    b-hop on the other hand is a master of slowing the pace down and quickening it when he wants to. imo his counter-punching is on another level to johnson and even in terms of offence he has the edge. athough johnson might throw more punches b-hop is better at picking his punches and finding the weaknesses. imo he would deliver another beat-down to the road warrior.
