    i can still remember when ppl called him washed-up after he was beaten by Calzaghe, i guess that Joe's win was not a fluke

        Seriously, it's hilarious how wrong everybody is about this guy nearly all the time.

        I got a great laugh out of the idiots in NSB saying he looked terrible at the weigh in, when he looked pretty much exactly like he has since moving up the the light heavyweight division many years ago.
        You'd have to be an absolute fool to bet on someone who struggled with Yusuf Mack to beat Bernard Hopkins.

        Whether Hopkins is 48 or 58.

          LOL. That's what I'm thinking. Whoever picked Cloud don't know **** about boxing.

          "Gee wiz fellas, I really doubted Hopkins tonight, but man he impressed the Hell outta me!" WTF???

                  I never understood anybody's reasoning for picking Cloud in this fight, and that's coming from a guy who was genuinely unimpressed with Hopkins' last two outings.

                  Even still, anybody with half a brain and a bit of boxing knowledge knew that Cloud was set up to get schooled.

                    I was pretty stunned people thought Cloud would win.

                    When will people learn?

                    Hopkins will never lose to someone as limited, one dimensional, and outright poor as Cloud. Never.
