    When Hopkins fights Taylor...

    I will be rich and I will love Hopkins because he will make me rich!

    Taylor fought a small shot Raul Marquez, and Alex Bunema..

    He kept whipping them with his jab and he looked like he was unstoppable

    I look like that to when I hit a heavybag....

    IMO he was losing the fight with Eduard when he stopped him

    and he didn't look to good against a old shot Joppy..

    Hopkins will come in as a underdog to the public but a favorite to boxing experts...

    So if Hopkins is the underdog, I will make more money when Hopkins whoops his ass...

    Hopkins do your job and make me rich

      In the Second fight with Echols....Antwun got mad at Nard's roughousing on the inside....he slammed Nard on the canvas using a suplex technique. Instead of taking the DQ and winning the fight with a dislocated shoulder he kept on fighting. They stood toe to toe and fought on the inside for a while, and Hopkins showed his heart and determination big time. I will never forget that display of courage. Echols would throw combinations on Nards hurt arms and shoulder, and you did not even see him grimace but 2 or 3 times the entire fight. In the later rounds Nard started bombing him and eventually knocked him down.

      He is old school, as much as anyone in the fight game. He also has one of the best chins in the business.

      What I have to laugh at....is people accusing Tito of being a dirty fighter for low blows. LOL Nard is twenty times worse...and used to hit people on the legs! Gotta like his ethics though.

          Hop is a throwback and a true do whatever it takes fighter. People that discredit him just don't like him and have their own ****ty agenda.

            Hey keep this hush hush, I know B-Hop will be schooling Taylor and I want to make that money to man, so don't put doubt in the minds of "Taylor's going to Whoop Nard, He's got his number" fans, keep them confident son = more money

              In a word: ignorance.

              Hopkins is a slick, savvy pro who's a violent and rugged inside fighter. He will beat and break fighters down with a mix of intelligent boxing and rugged tactics. Whatever works.

              IMO, until he loses or retires, he's got a strangle hold on being the best fighter in the sport.


              Some moron who didn't even post in this thread gave me bad Karma for this post I made earlier in this thread.

                haha. I know dude....its amazing. I am still in shock about some of the comments I have read, as well as the lack of support for Hopkins as a fighter. That is so funny, that someone disagreed with that post....because it is basically right on the money to a T. LOL. The only part I disagree with...was the #1 spot. I think PBF is the best fighter on earth.

                Nard a close damn 2nd.

                  I gotta agree with Knives with this one. Hopkins adapts very well to his opponent & breaks them down mentally & physically. He brawls when he wants to & boxes when he needs to. He capitilizes off other boxers mistakes & makes them pay for it. He's probably the most complete fighter in the game today & maybe the smartest.

                    Bernard has retired more fighters then anyone fighter that i can think of. He sent Tito on his first retirement, even though Tito had a farewell fight after his loss.(you have to go out with a win), but Hopkins has roughed up everyone in the ring worse thean just beating them. i think thats why roy was hiding under the money in a rematch, cause even though he won, it probably didn't feel like a win physically... most of the fighters that lose to Hopkins, their career goes to **** afterwards. they tend to line up a string of losses or have sub-par performances, alla Tito(you cant count mayorga cause he gave tito freebee's on his chin) in a competitive fight like the Wright fight, look how he got owned. Tito wasn't the only one, Glenn Johnson had the same problem, but he's the only one to have persevered with his career and become a champ. Vanderpool did ok for a few fights too, but now has fallen of the radar.Echols, Mercado, Simon Brown, they all had a rough time in the ring after fighting Hopkins....the man is an executioner on many levels.....a true hard nose gritty get it done throw back fighter, they don't make'em like that anymore....

                      word @ all of what's been said thus far. I still can't understand why cats refuse to give Bernard his props. I agree that some of these cats haven't watched Bernard's fights except for against Trinidad, DLH, and Eastman. From what I've seen of Taylor, I'd be very surprised if he defeats Hopkins, very much surprised. But win, lose, or draw, I think Bernard deserves respect.
