BoxingScene.com has received a copy of a lawsuit recently filed by trainer Bouie Fisher against his former student Bernard Hopkins. The legal documents, dated September 18, 2009, were filed a few days ago in a Philadelphia federal court. Fisher, the long-time ex-trainer of Hopkins, claims the fighter owes him money from his fights with Oscar De La Hoya, Jermain Taylor and Howard Eastman. Fisher is looking to recover $200,496, plus interest and liquidated damages of 25%. [details]

I am sure he "didn't wait this long". He has been trying to recoup the money w/o taking this course but Bernard wouldn't pay therefore he has to go to court.
Pay the man Bernard. You owe it to him for sure! All the work he put into you when you came out of prison. All the no money shows he was with you on. Not to mention the mentoring he probably did for you as well. Quit being like your daddy Oscar and pay this man! He deserves it.Comment
