    Hopkins backgound

    Could someone please talk to me about where Hopkins grew up, why he went to prison etc. I'm just trying to get as much info on his early days as I can, so anything you guys can come up with will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

          Anyone who has seen Bernerd Hopkins Beyond The Glory, could you please descibe the part when he breaks down in tears. I've heard about it, but don't have any details. Again, any help would be great. Cheers.

                The FOX cast and Bernard Hopkins went back the Graterville (or some **** like that) Penitentiary. Bernard then found out the convicts painted a 20 feet mural of himself on the gym walls. Obviously, since Hop was a resident of Graterville, and he was getting choked up while reminiscing.
