Hopkins really looked old

[johncods]

B-hop looked impressive to me going toe to toe and firing off combinations albeit the opposition.. For a 45 yr. old man thats amazing..

[ILLuminato]

Danny Green woulda destoryed Bhop tonight, sorry.

[Boxingwizard]

Huh?
A year ago (his last fight prior to tonight) he looked incredible...
How can you say some dumb **** like " he's looked sloppy in his last fights"

Against Taylor Hopkins looked sloppy, also when he fought Calzaghe, and Winky Wright. Sure there are fights where he looked like he was 28 years old, but Roberto Duran looked like he was in prime when he beat Iran Barkely at 38 years young.

[Shinerbop]

He looked fine to me.

[Boxingwizard]

hopkins has always started slow. thats a trade mark of him.

He didn't start off slow against Glen Johnson, Trinidad, or against Antwun Echols.

[Boxingwizard]

hopkins has always had a very low punch out put. this was a typical hopkins fight for anyone who knows his career

True but Hopkins in his prime had the stamina to keep up a steady workrate, a much younger Hopkins wouldn't cruise the first five rounds like he did against Taylor and Ornelas and than turn it on in the second half of the fight.

[southpaw_07]

hopkins has always started slow. thats a trade mark of him.

that's pure BS, watch the K.Pavlik fight. B-Hop grew 20 years older within a year. He looked terrible in comparison to the Pavlik fight. He shoulda get rid of this C Class Club fighter within the first 5 rd's if he really was so sharp.

Bye bye B-Hop,

[dde91]

I thought he was just feeling it out the first 3-4 rounds. I mean he hasn't been in the ring for more then a year and he is turning 45 next month. It wasn't a OUTSTANDING performance (i THINK IT HAS TO DO WITH THE RING RUST) but the fact is he DOMINATED and thats what hopkins does best.

[oaklandstephen]

hopkins looked a lil slower at times but he did not look old and hopkins always finds a way to win.

[THe TRiNiTY]

He fought well, dominated and he fought a tough, younger, nothing to lose kid. Yeah, he looked fine.

He'd beat both Jones and Danny Green. Possibly even back to back. Yeah, I said it.
