    Cloud who struggled against Johnson and got schooled by Campillo? LOL there are still people on the Cloud hype train?

    Yup, you already know.

      Even in winning, he will look terrible in winning.

      Having to fake low blows to get breaks is not how Hopkins should be remembered.
      This..

      90% of Hopkins fights consists of 1 punch clinch. 2 punches clinch.

      It's boring and frustrates the hell out of me and I'm not even the one fighting.

        .
        Right because Hopkins and Campillo have the same styles and are similar lol

        Hopkins does nothing but wrestle now adays. Campillo was active and could box. HUGE difference there.

        Oh yea, and no Cloud didn't struggle against Johnson.

          LOL if you know a little bit about Hopkins you know fighters like Cloud are the type of fighters Hopkins eats for breakfast, they're tailor made for him. You can't be seriously hyping Cloud, get off that bandwagon please for your own sake.

                    I think it's the other way around.

                    Hopkins would be tailor made for Cloud. Hopkins has been badly hurt in his last 2 out of 3 fights. Obviously we're not dealing with the same Hopkins from early 2000's.

                    Like I said, terrible comparison comparing what Campillo did to what Hopkins could potentially do.

                    Hopkins activity has come to like 4 punches a round. Campillo's rate was very high.

                    Hopkins is tailor made for Cloud.
