thoughts on demetrius hopkins

[akins12732]

i think he is not as good as advertised by his uncle and de la hoya

[AintGottaClue]

ya i had that fight much much closer

[ottoevans]

i thought it was a blow out but real boring

[akins12732]

i think the name helps the kid out tremendously

[mauricio95]

boring as hell

[Stickman]

One word:

Raw.


He has some natural ability, but he's still WAY raw right now. I'd have thought his uncle would be working with him and helping him get his **** together....that's what family's for, right? Or maybe he is, and the kid is like many others, and just does his own thing regardless. Whatever the case may be, he's way raw and in no way ready for any serious competition.

I've seen him a few time so far and he puts me to sleep. He just doesn't have what it takes.

[The Fix]

i think he is going to be good if he keeps sparring with his uncle. to get that kind of experience will help a ton.

Hopkins thinks he'd be ready to take on Cotto in about a year. If he sucks as bad as you guys said he does, he'll most likely KO Cotto..

Not till Harris knocks Cotto out, then he will go back to fighting bums..
