I thought Hopkins and Mayweather were boys?

Some of you are simple people.

No wonder Boxing is such a joke. The people who watch the sport are uneducated dimwits with no clue. It's the same thing over and over and over, yet your brains seem to be unable to notice the trend.

Boxing is a MUG's game. Only foolish people get into it, and only the foolish with rotton promoters do they make any money from it.

Hopkins works for GBP. I reckon alot of the idiots on the board will still struggle to understands what that means or still be asking why he was there.

Boxing is a joke. Im outta here

Anybody notice that he kept sayin, "He scared to fight, he scared to fight"?

"Boys"

Reported for racism.

yeh i seen hopkins hiding behind kellerman

hopkins is a punk anyway ..the whole i aint ever gonna lose to a white boy really shud have ended his media status somehow it didnt

having a go about white boy comments and you are rocking a floyd avatar and sig

[ßringer]

I also think as someone else mentioned moments ago ; Shane and Bernard's frustration with how GBP caters to Floyd, and their overall frustration with how they've been unjustly treated as of late, added to their frustration in the ring.

i think bernard was lobbying for a fight with floyd himself...floyd is a big name middleweight now, so he's in hopkins category...plus he brings all the money...thats definitely someone hopkins is interested in..

Does anyone think that was staged

Floyd called Shane over and Hopkins was telling Shane what to say

HBO and GBP are in the business of making money

I thought it was obvious that it was staged, at least by HBGOlden Boy.

It didn't seem like Floyd was in on the joke, though. Max dropped Shane's name, and Floyd appeared to genuinely allow Shane to have a little bit of face time. The rest came across as his getting sandbagged.

I'm not a Floyd fan, but am surprised at how many people were OK with what went down in the post-fight interview. Antonio Tarver was raked through the coals for crashing the post-fight presser after Roy beat Ruiz, yet everyone seems to applaud Shane and Bernard bum rushing Floyd less than five minutes after his first fight back in nearly two years.

Granted, Floyd's interview was going nowhere fast, but HBO and Golden Boy knew what to expect the moment they agreed to fund his comeback. What was allowed in the ring wasn't right, and neither was Max for cutting off the interview when he did.

[razor.thin]

you were wrong, hopkins is a boy and mayweather is a girl.

[Joe2608]

Looked staged to me.

[James78]

why did shane need hopkins to back him up??it looked like a scene from a prision yard to be honest.....like they wanted to shank floyd and hopkins was hiding the shank for shane in an old towel behind his back

It looked like a scene from a school yard to me. I think Shane got what he wanted, ie people are talking about that fight now. He drummed up some interest but in a ****ty way, but hey it worked. We talkin about it right?
