He must have taken a few punches before he went on air ... KO Leonard in 2?

In his dreams.

"wed both be in the ICU talkin bout 'why we go and fight each other? and sippin our steaks."

Bitchkins is full of himself. He would have never beaten any of the Sugar Ray's. Hagler would've destroyed Bitchkins period.

Did he seriously say this? That guy is a ****ing ****head for saying that. Bernard Hopkins is a HBO creation, who has he beat other than blown-up welterweights while in his late 30's?

Hopkins would not live with McClellan, Jones Jr or the Benn that fought Barkley if we're talking about these last four years (nobody knew who he was before that) simply because they would be just too fast and too powerful for the wily old veteran to handle.

The 77-78 version of Hagler at his sharpest (counter-punching, power-punching) would completely dominate any version of Hopkins, and any version of Hopkins would be out of his depth against Hagler during Hagler's reign of terror in the 80's.

You don't go disrespecting other champions to make yourself look better.

What a jerk.

**marvdave** · 10-12-2005, 06:53 AM

the mind is a terrible thing to waste Mr Hopkins.

**Hitman932** · 10-12-2005, 07:18 PM

yeah he said it.

when asked to comment on Leonard he got kinda bitchy like "why even ask me that"

he was like "ive already said this before, id knock ray leonard out in 2 rounds, i respect his legacy but he was a welterweight, i wouldve walked him down and knocked him out"

I think that Hopkins closely beats Leonard, loses to Ray by decision and loses to Hagler by decision.

All three fights would be very competitive.

if marvin hagler fought bernard hopkins, marvin would visit bhop in the icu after the fight and as him "why did you fight me"
while bernard tried to sip his steak
