Has this been working for you? Because I've seen you say some pretty ****** **** too...

There is no need to attack one another. This is a forum and people are entitled to express their thoughts for some some feedback.

Hey asslicker mind your own business. Go find the nearest bridge & jump. End yourself!

God, Hopkins fans are really taking this hard aren't they? You're getting DESPERATE now.

Now I'm starting to hope Taylor knocks him out in violent fashion in the first round of their rematch and endds his career. I would cry with joy and laugh at his "fans" who have come out of the woodwork over this last year..

I don't think Hopkins ever had any fans. Maybe all the people who hated Trinidad or De la Hoya switched over.

I'd have to agree, I was hoping that Hopkins would win, just to make it to the record he was hoping for. But to go twelve rounds with a Champ, to take shots like Taylor was getting, and delivering a 12 round show, Taylor deserves the title.

Love to see Hopkins fight again, but the run is over. I just hope he doesn't retire and come back, keep on fighting or start announcing.

Someone who would even think that should not consider themselves knowledgeable in boxing whatsoever.

Think about it…why would a man who has been undefeated for 12 years, had 20 straight defenses and especially a proud man like Hopkins do that? It does nothing for him other than tarnish his reputation, being defeated on what could be his last fight.

Wow, that one made me laugh for a second or two.

[Tha Greatest]

From what I heard by no means was the fight a robbery...

Hopkins did not convincingly win any early rounds and neither did Taylor from what I hear..

but I haven't seen it...

I will judge for myself tommorrow...

[MetalVomit]

of course not. he simply started too late.

[mic573]

No he did not. Hopkins does alot of **** some ****** some smart but throwing a fight I don't think he would do that.

"I don't think Hopkins ever had any fans. Maybe all the people who hated Trinidad or De la Hoya switched over."

I think you're probably right. The guy had a very small fanbase until people realized he was going for 20 defenses. Now everyone seems to love the guy, when frankly he comes off as a total ******* to me.
