more motivation for bhop!

and the bhop haters, take a good look at that list and maybe you'll realize why what hopkins is doing is so remarkable. If it was so easy or such a fluke, more fighters would have done it. But the only names you see on that list are Archie and Foreman.

although foreman got the win over schulz, me and the mojority of the boxing world had schulz by UD. this fight is going to be a contrast in styles. can chad move fast enough to stay ahead of b-hop? does the veteran pro have enough tricks in his bag to defy the odds one more time? its real hard to pick over b-hop. i have to go with b-hop by UD in a real close back and forth fight. i hpoe chad is mentally prepared for this. b-hop is.

If Hopkins wins this fight he should change his name to


The PROFESSOR because of all the schooling

and clinics he gives to these young fighters.

Bhop is a true gift


I feel privileged to watch him.

the big differance is Archie nor George never tried to fake their way to a victory. hobkins is a cheat and everyone knows it.
