    Bring on the red K
    Is he seen as cowardly? Ive never heard that. Dirty? Yeah without a doubt. But he is also considered brilliant in the ring.

        If he was white. He wouldn't grow up on the poor side of Philly. Would have stayed in school and never went to prison. Which means he would never have boxed.


        White Bernard Hopkins is a Cop not a Boxer.
        So white people arent poor and in bad neighborhood's huh? Wow...****ing wow...I love how some people like to assume that all white people have it easy and come from money and just have everything in life given to them. Are you joking or just stunningly ignorant?

          - Simon Brown would become as famous a name on boxingscene as Tocker Pudwill, even though he didn't have as good of a record.

          - the Ring writers like Rosenthal and Raskin would be saying Hopkins should never be considered a great fighter, only a good fighter.

          - the Bringer and Bhopreign wouldn't have him as their favorite fighter.
          But you would. Also, Wlad_Owns would be named Bernard_Owns.

                    Hopkins would be an atg no matter what his color.

                    The guy is still on top at 44yo and has the resume of a god.

                    He could be called Bernard Bin Laden and you would have to accept he is not only one of a generation but one in a 100yrs.

                      I dont think anyone really calls him cowardly, but if he was white i think he would be much more famous but still called the same things by people like us
