Nadal quits all the time, too. If it isn't a big tournament.
Hopkins will never fit my perception of a hero, due partly to what you say about his personality type and how he comes across in press-cons and the rest of it but also his gamesmanship in the ring (the Calzaghe, Jones II, Dawson.)
He is a winner though - through and through.
I think bunking up with Hopkins in a war would leave me having to arm myself with a fork. After he decided it really would be better for him to have two guns.
Like you say, he is a bit of a mystery and I don't know him at all but what he puts across to the media usually isn't great. My enduring memory of him is him shouting at Steve Bunce and telling him the room was too cold when they were doing a promo for the Calzaghe fight.
You got some good lines Sparked, that one made me laugh out loud at work
