against a guy named Hopkins nonetheless

EDIT: According to the search function, this is old news

it is old news however his opponent was never named, so thanks for that.

Larry Hopkins is 0-3, so hopefully he gets his lifelong dream of fighting and gets the Win. I would hate to be his opponent and beat him.

Amazing story, I can't imagine the pain he went through in life. I'm happy Bernard Hopkins & Golden Boy are making his dream a reality, such a great gesture, and pretty amazing that Bhop has gone out of his way to help train this guy for his fight while preparing for dawson. A real class act.

Imagine that. Just some months ago you're locked in prison, next thing you know you're training with Bernard Hopkins.

so Bernard is sacrificing a relative for some guy looking to fulfill a dream, or is the last name thing a coincidince?

That is straight up old school. Damn to think he spent that much time in prison for a crime he didn't commit. Glad he did it his way and cleared his name.

apparently pacquiao hasn't either. My girl said he looks like a Neanderthal. What's up with you judging guys looks anyways? Pretty suspect if you're more concerned with dudes looks than his story.
