Raheem like Hopkins?

[scottydottie]

As i was watching the Raheem-Morales fight, i noticed Raheem using a lot of tactics used by none other than the executioner himself B-hop. For example, he used a variety of feints and in the 5th round, when Raheem almost knocked down Morales, he looked almost identical to when B-hop knocked down Robert Allen on the undercard of the DLH-Sturm fight. The old walk-in feint right hand.IDK I see a lot of Hopkins in Raheem. Possibly becuase they are both from Philly, or raheem has been studying Hopkins.

agreed he was was backing away and then threw the right hand real hard and real fast.he had Morales watching out for it all night.

Hopkins - The Greatest of All Time.

The only thing is that he doesn't have the killer intinct that B-Hop has!

Hopkins - The Greatest of All Time.

LOL - Next u be calling HOPKINS the new "ali" please more like Muhammed Ali losing to a novice leon Spinks and Hopkins losing to a novice pro Jermain Taylor. However the difference will be Hopkins loses the rematch.

Never liked Hopkins, the guy is a boring fighter period

The last fight I remember Hopkins looking impressive in was vs William Joppy.

Agreed, hes boring...But if Hopkins is, what do you call Raheem?The only reason people watched that fight is because of El Terrible.Zahir would never be PPV material.
