Teddy Atlas has said it best about Hopkins he is like an illusion at his age he can get away with fighting raw one dimensional low boxing IQ fighters and people will praise him. Pavlik, Pascal, Dawson, Cloud were all tailor made for Hopkins all these guys are either hesitant or mental midgets in the ring when they can't figure you out. If you notice B hop said no amount of money they could give him to fight Andre Ward lol, he knows Ward would figure him out, and he even decided not to fight that Russian guy who knocked out that slick boxer who beat Cloud.

          If There were any Mexican fighters at 175 who had fearless aggression like Margarito or Rios, Hopkins age would show, Calzaghe made Hopkins look old cause of the pressure he applied this is why Pavliks people thought they could capitalize on him thinking he was on the decline but its not true it was a stylistic match up that is bad for Hopkins. You have to really smother him bad and out work Hopkins like Calzaghe did.

          I would have loved to see Hopkins versus Kessler, Bute or Froch

          If I where Bernard Hopkins I would have done the VADA year round testing to prove to everyone doubting him that he is in fact legit.

          JMM on the other hand is obvious he is possibly juicing, dudes physique changes at his age are unreal, his ability to take punches and deliver knock downs to a guy who he never dropped in his life was highly suspect, plus he aligned himself with Memo a known ped chemist who moved to Mexico and continued to cheat in sports even after giving testimony.

          Dude even changed his name lol thinking nobody would know its him.

          LMAO, it's hard to imagine that a guy giving up 10-15 years in age on average to younger fighters is cherry picking at all not to mention fighting undefeated champions or champions with only one loss. You seem to have a very skewed perspective or you just don't like Hopkins.

            But what pisses me off is that it was not just the Pac fans that were slinging crap at Marquez it was the general media consensus. By their standards BHop should be PED suspect number 1 but everyone is mum.
            not to get into a whole pac thing, but Pac has/had the same machine behind him that De la hoya had back in his day, people that should be unbiased let their personal opinions out; pac is a popular ; good fighter, and to see him face down shocked alot of people.

                  Peds dont do what Bhop is doing , another thread where the poster just listens to too much media , Bhop is a boxing genius both mentally and in ability he aint blasting anybody he is beating them with wisdom and finesse .

                  Peds sheeese , you guys are dreamers with the crap you come out with , now its anybody that defys the odds is on Peds , and the irony is they really dont have anything going that remotely looks like peds .

                  Unreal !

                      Oh my gosh. How will Hopkins ever deal with Rios' pressure, power and chin? Rios clone by brutal KO in round 5.




                      And for all you slow folks yes I'm being sarcastic.
