      Hopkins certainly has the knowledge but isn't very articulate, he often struggles to convey what he wants to say.

I'm not bashing Hopkins, just saying that there are difficulties he would have in the commentator role.

            I like B-Hop, but trying to understand what the hell he's talking bout sometimes proves to take work. Also I'm not 100% convinced he knows left from right. "two left hooks...I mean right hooks" I think he's done that two or three times tonight.

              Hes a better commentator then he is a boxer... Sad Truth, sure he would crush us in real life with his massive steroid biceps if he could hit us, but he might be too slow. And he might run out of breath since he always seems to blame all his losses on bad asthma
