    A few people have been saying that GGG put some serious hurt on him in sparring, is that true?

      No that's likely complete BS. Since they both have upcoming fights they only sparred a couple times against eachother and was likely "light work" . They spar to put in work and help eachother not beat eachother up.

      Think of when Shane Mosley came to Oscar's camp and spar (can't remember if this was for the Floyd or Pacquiao fight ). When they sparred they weren't reliving their previous wars, just light work getting a work out, working on technique and strategy, etc.

              Style wise, Hopkins is all wrong for Cloud ... fortunately for Cloud, Hopkins is 48.

                No doubting Hopkins is HOF material but I hate seeing him fight, well hold fall over feign injury.
                Hope Cloud finishes his career once and for all
