Does Bernard Hopkins look bad now because Taylor got KTFO 3 times??

[P.WILL]

But the fact Hopkins - Taylor was close where as Pavlik,Froch and Abraham brutally knocked him the F out, does that make him look bad?

Taylor would have won on points had he lasted 14 more seconds or taken a knee against Froch

[VipersThunder]

I mean after all Hopkins went life and death with him and lost twice, Taylor got KTFO by Froch,Abraham and Pavlik. Hopkins is no longer a great fighter because he lost to this guy.

Life and death? Hopkins got hit like 3 times in 24 rounds.

But that's Froch (LOL), what about Pavlik and Abraham.

[boxasmash]

Life and death? Hopkins got hit like 3 times in 24 rounds.

Maybe so but he only threw 2 punches in 24 rounds too.

[Iceta]

The difference is Hopkins went on to beat some other fighters. Calzaghe as it stands now, well?

[BEEHOP]

Hopkins was also 40 YEARS old during those fights.

And he could have easily gotten the nod.

[boxasmash]

Wait, Did Calzaghe not beat Hopkins in 2008? I can't remember... *pin drops*

You hate Calzaghe cause he beat your favourite fighters

[fireman_ek50]

hellz no!!!

wow, yall treating this like marquez should be an ATG cuz him and pacquiao made great fights and so forth....

listen here yall...styles make fights, and its not just in boxing but almost every sport as well...

and i believe after taylor fought joe calz, he wasnt the same fighter after that

u could tell...he didnt have that confidence anymore and things got caught up in his head...

he looked great against jeff lacy but who doesnt lol....and he had the fight in the bag against carl froch but stamina was a key in the fight....

and u could tell he was starting to doubt himself at the end of that fight...

my manz, joe calz, def took something outta him...nevertheless, he WAS a great fighter....and i wish him nothing but the best of luck

hopkins ruined taylor

[bunce101]

knowledgable people know, Hopkins is too old to beat guys with good foot movement and hand speed now, thats why he chose Pavlik over Dawson, why he chose Jones over the legacy enhancing/sealing potential win against Dawson, A good fighter with good foot and hand speed with movement beats this version of Hopkins, and definatelly Calzaghes fights with Hopkins were closer than Taylors second fight with Hopkins, either way Calzaghe must come back now or else his legacy in 5years time will look pathetic, look at Sven Ottke
