    Im not a big Bernard Hopkins fan

    But...

    Im sitting here watching FNFs, and Im watching Freddie Norwood fight... A guy who is way best his best, 41 years old and turned pro in 89. Doesnt look like he used too... Hes about done.... obviously... Because thats what happens to just about anyone at that age..

    Then FNFs brings up The Ring LHW rankings.

    And who is obviously #1?

    Bernard Hopkins.

    A guy who is 5 years older than Freddie Norwood, and turned pro 1 year before.... Turned pro in 1988 and is still one of the best fighters in the world and #1 fighter in his division.

    That doesn't happen.

    I have a lot of respect for that.

    I think it's Freddie Norwood, but I agree with your point Reed.

              Bhop has done very well fighting at his age.

              Clean living has its benefit.

              He has worked hard and deserves all his success.
