    You guys are over reacting

    Not a great fight by any means, but a decent enough watch. For guys in their 40's they did well.


    B-Hop has clearly slipped since the Pavlik fight but he still looked damn good for his age.

      Neither landed a good punch the whole fight. Hopkins's strategy consisted of headbutting, low blows, rabbit punches, and acting like he was getting fouled hard. It was awful.

          I agree. It was entertaining and not any less exciting than any Mayweather fight who's in his "prime" (supposedly).

          This fight was more exciting than Mayweather/JMM

            I think people main complaint is Hopkins overreaction throughout the fight, all the other stuff was expected.

              It went pretty much as expected.

              Regular old Bhop, and a shot Roy Jones.


              It was pretty entertaining, never laughed so much during a fight.

              Would probably be crying if I had paid for it, though.

                Hop did what he had to do, smother Roy and rough him up.

                I'm not saying it was a good fight, it was what I expected. I've seen far worse.

                    This......

                    I wasn't surprised one bit by this fight.

                    It was still better than Jones-Tarver III and Hopkins-Wright.
