    Nice to see him supporting my view that Mayweather is a clown. I got all the respect in the world for him inside the ring but outside...

      There's definitely some good advice in what Bernard's saying. Too many athletes blow their money away and when their career is over they're broke. It happens to lottery winners too. It has more to do with people that come from nothing getting money fast than it does hip hop.

      But of course Bernard has some money, he seems like the type to save damn near every penny he's ever made. Why else would he still be walking around with that yuck mouth of his? You mean to tell me he has all these properties and hasn't spent a dime on those piranha teeth? LOL!!!!

        I dislike him getting in the ring again though. That's unwise.
        He is a fighter and he knows that ,like you said he is smart,this is all he has known since prison,i think he needed those extra years in the ring to be able to transition to promoting"which by the way i would rather see him on hbo commentating"you got to think he got out of jail at i believe somewhere between 25-27 and resumed a career that had been inactive for along time,that is only 19 years ago,most people it takes them into there 20s to make a mark let alone change jobs,i honestly think bernard just needed time to transition,plus the fact that there is no fighter that compares to his training etic.

              A lot of wisdom from Bernard. Although we might see some minor flaws in his argument, the gist of what he said here is absolutely true. I think this is a good read for young people.

                Hopkins just ethered an entire generation of rappers, athletes, and wannabes in one interview.

                  I don't really get this attitude of, "I got money now, so everyone has to know".

                  Really, its quite pointless and sets you up for failure in the future when you're putting all of your business out there for everyone to see.

                  But thats that "new money" attitude I guess.

                  Dumb as rocks with it.

                      I like and respect what B-Hop had to say but everybody doesn't follow the same script and they shouldn't. I am pretty sure PBF and B-Hop both do dumb ****. All this flashing your money with fancy cars and clothes and houses is nothing new at all. Look at all the big time criminals through all the years they all flashed money and material things so that is bull****. I agree that it's not that smart. But yall have to realize these people didn't make that money not to spend it and enjoy it. B-Hop came up and went to jail for robbing people so of course he is going to have a different take on flashing money and material things. I am willing to bet B-Hop still has that mentality of if I show this the wolves might be watching and try to take my ****. Cause that is how he thought and operated before he went to prison and he never lost that edge in thinking and knowing what the streets is like.

                      Yes as a big PBF I can agree that he is over the top with some of the **** he does. But that doesn't make what he is doing wrong and it doesn't make the person who is doing the opposite of him right. IMO they are both right because they are 2 different people LIVING THEY OWN LIVES HOW THEY WANT TO.
