    why persecute me for being true to my self?

    would you rather me be a phony & act all fair, balanced, objective, & god forbid complimentary?

          you could just show a 1 min clip from whenever in the Roy fight and that would be enough to show what u mean. I had a little respect for Hopkins before the fight, now i have NONE

              Hopkins has a great career no doubt, one of the best middleweights. My problem with him is that his fans think he's unbeatable despite Hopkins being past his prime since 2005. I think he needs to go down in the LHW and P4P rankings, Chad Dawson would certainly beat his ass now, and Hopkins KNOWS this.

                The 2nd & 3rd time he beat a middleweight with class, He got beat by Jermaine Taylor. How can you call yourself a legendary fighter if you get outpointed by Jermaine freaking taylor?

                All of his notable wins are against famous boxers from lower divisions. He beat oscar who is a career welterweight & was moving up from junior welterweight. He beat a undefeated felix trinidad who only had one fight at middleweight before facing hopkins.

                People want to complain that pacquiao is a catchweight king when he only had one catchweight fight vs miguel cotto, well....

                Bernard is the true king of catchweights,

                catchweights vs oscar de la hoya, winky wright, & kelly pavlik. Even his other notable win vs a on his way to washed up antonio tarver has to be re evaluated. How great of a fighter will tarver end up? Not great at all. What were the circumstances surrounding the fight? Tarver had to lose so much weight after filming the crappiest rocky film of them all.

                When bernard stepped up to fight his next classy opponent, he makes another fighter move up in weight joe calzaghe. What happend there?

                He got slapped around & faked another one of his famous phantom injuries.

                Beranard "Soapy" Hopkins, not as great as we think.
                marvin haglers greatest fights were against hearns, duran, and leonard i dont see people hatin on him for that. if u knew the history of boxing ud be ratin hopkins as one of the best!

                  I never liked Hopkins.

                  I like him more when he is talking about boxing and not actually subjecting us to watching him box.

                  My personal choice for most boring fighter of all time. Dirty, crafty, slick, clinch-happy, limited punch-output, he had everything you need to be a terrifyingly boring fighter.
