    Hopkins is a strange interview. Every time I see him, he can sound like the most intelligent man one minute, and not so much the next.

    He is the King of Malapropism, but that only add to him being the best talker in Boxing. It beats "Ya kno wat i sayin" and all that other bratty Broner talk.

He's pretending he never said any of that and acting like Marquez knocking Pac out is a victory for Mayweather now.
      I don't remember that about Stephen A...I saw him picking Mayweather each time the topic was bought up (even when both Marquez and Pac were in the studio for that time). Maybe he said it a year or so earlier and then switched it up...

      As far as that show is concerned, I could care less about it now...Skip Baseless is a prop, and SAS is basically redundant with his comments. That show hasn't been as good as it was when it was Cold Pizza and it had my favorite journalist on there...



      PS - I knew that dance would lead to a gif somewhere

        Stephen A is two faced and truth be told I dislike ( Where with Skip it is a case of finding him annoying). He always stood by his belief that Mayweather would beat Pacquiao in a fight however when Marquez and Pacquiao were on the show (promoting their fourth fight) he said that he now believed Mayweather was scared of Pacquiao.

        That in itself didn't make me dislike him as people can change their opinion. What I found somewhat distasteful was him treating Pacquiao as a friend, ingratiating himself with him and what not only to say ''That boy got put too sleep'' and just revering in his demise. I found it off putting people 2 months earlier he was kowtowing to Pacquiao, I expected him to behave in a more dignified manner with regards to someone who showed him respect.

            From what I remember when Pacquiao and Marquez where on the show, Stephen actually told Pacquiao to his face, "i believe Floyd will beat you, if the fight occurs". Yes he showed respect to the man, but still told the man his thoughts truthfully and Pacquiao just laughed at him.

                Yeah ur right. He did tell PAC Floyd would beat him. They are twisting what he said a lil bit. He was basically saying that when he talked to PAC backstage about Floyd, pacman laughed it off like he ain't scared. So Stephen was saying he doesn't think PAC is scared of floyd(and I don't either). Doesn't change the fact that Floyd still would have beat him. U don't have to be scared to lose. He was really saying to Floyd PAC ain't scared and laughed at u. U just gonna let him laugh at u? He was just instigating lol.

Not knowledge you can learn in some fancy posh school or university, but that raw street schooled knowledge.

                    I seriously could listen to Bernard Hopkins talk all day. The man has so much of that old school knowledge in him just listening to a few words from him you can learn so much.
