Can you imagine going up to THE EXECUTIONER or THE GOLDEN BOY and saying: "Excuse me, even though you guys are happily married, I think you's are both ****ing ******s!!" Can you imagine the following bloodfest?

      So they get on, outside the ring..who the **** cares? That's their business..as long as they keep fighting, it's good for the sport, right?
      Nice response....for someone in the third grade.

      "Go say that to their faces"...give me a break.


      I am a huge Hopkins fan actually. I live in Philadelphia, & attended the parade the city held in his honor, back in the beginning of October.

      My problem isn't with him, it's with that fraud, Oscar. the one who quit in one of the most EXPENSIVE fights in history.

        Hopkins and DLH are both world class fighters, or at least they were. I respect your views on B.Hop and DLH. I also agree with about your comment about DLH quitting in such a high profile fight. But on the other hand, Hopkins has looked far better against others. He could have done more, its not his fault that DLH quit. But it makes you wonder if they had talked about teaming up before the fight. No so much as fixing the fight, just discussed the after options. It would be nice if Benard retired on top, became a decent promotor and got this sport going again.

          The fight wasnt fixed. Oscar just has a week heart as well as his kidney been weak. Hopkins was just starting to really getting to him. They might not have looked like wild power shots but they were getting to Oscar. Bernard has such good physical strength.

            Oscar knew it and he knew he was in over his head and quit.

              Who knows? I will say this, the round before the 9th Bernard Hopkins for the first time since his fight with Jones in 93 did not know weather he was winning or losing, I had him up by 2 going into the last round but had the fight gone on and carried the same tune the rest of the way everyone on this site would have been eagerly anticipating who was going to get the nod. Oscar was certainly not outclassed had been barely hit in the fight (trouble was he had barely hit Hopkins either)so I don't know if I can say he was over his head, it wasn't like he ran from Bernard, Hopkins gave Oscar a lot of respect in there, especially for a guy who has no punch at middleweight. Too suggest a fix or something a long the lines that they were in business together is for conspiracy theorists.
