Hopkins has become such a cherry picker, and I'm not a fan anymore.

[Iceta]

Yeah, I said it. You notice of how he always is going after a weak opponent now? I can see of why he fought Pavlik because everybody was demanding that Joe Calzaghe fight him and Dawson didn't look very good when he beat Glen Johnson controversially and Pavlik was a media darling and supposedly the heir apparent of Bernard Hopkins himself. And plus Hopkins did go down a few pounds to meet him at 170, so credit where credit is due.

But what's this **** about going after these guys like Danny Green and David Haye? First of all, David Haye is one of the most overrated fighters there is even though there's plenty of people that can't stand him as it is. The only guy he beat was a chinny ass Enzo and he left the division without fighting Adamek and Cunningham who both would've beaten him in my opinion. And now James Toney has called him out and Hopkins don't want none. If he doesn't want to fight Dawson because he's not a big draw, then fine. But why not revisit the negotiations with Adamek or fight Cunningham in an all Philly showdown? It's because he knows those guys stand a chance of beating him. That's why.

45 yr. old man needs to fight top opponents in his weight division.

Here's my break for his old ass. ****ing RETIRE and quit wasting mine and everybody else's time.

He has fought Tarver, Wright, Calzaghe, Pavlik, and Ornelas in his last 5 fights. 4 future Hall of Famers and you knock him for taking a tune up after a year off by going after the biggest money fight available?

[Iceta]

The things that made me a fan of Hopkins was the fact that he was a mentally tough and calm guy in the ring. When he had that fight with Echols he showed me what a real fighter fights like. I believe he did have to fight with an injured shoulder for the rest of that fight. I'm just can't support the way he's acting when it comes to choosing his opponents. Just like I can't support Floyd. I don't give a **** how old he is.

How is he wasting your time if he fights danny green in australia?

1). You don't have to watch it.
2). You don't have to pay for it.
3). You don't have to read about it.

The facts remain:

a). Hopkins is a HOF fighter.
b). Hopkins is 45 years old. Forty Five Years Old.
c). Hopkins is a future hall of famer.
d). Hopkins resume is amongst the best out active fighters.
e). He's earned his right to make money if he wants to at this stage of his career.
f). His options are limited - Green, Dawson & Adamek. There is no money in Dawson. Adamek is now at heavyweight so it's unclear as if they can work something out, perhaps after green. (I'd love to see that fight).

You're like 7 years too late.

For now, he deserves easy fights. He's 44 and really it is a rarity to be boxing and still be at top level.

There's a reason why he makes sense and doesn't slur while all the old timers are like drunk souding.
