    Hopkins/Murat

    I saw some highlights of this fight. Hopkins was standing toe to toe and trading. I was truly shocked. Is this how Hopkins will be fighting or is Hopkins just trying to be more exciting?

    Hopkins won't do that with anyone good...

    He didn't respect Murat and was looking for a ko in a decade

        Grandpa Hopkins will tell the ref to step aside, then swagger in head first and slug it out with Kovalev like it's nobody's business. Old school Smokin' Joe Philly Style.

            This^. Murat really is pretty poor and didn't have any business being in the same ring with BHop. If he posed any threat Hopkins would have shut him down fast.

              I can see him doing that against this next guy because definitely not against Superman or Kovalev. He'd still school both though. Wish he could get those fights. How crazy would it be for him to become undisputed champion again at LHW at age 50, almost ten years after he was undisputed at MW.

              He'd have a case for top 10 ATG in my book IF he went out like that.

                Even more if they're his size and aren't mentally weak.

                  A. Murat is a poor fighter.

                  B. It was one of the dirtiest fights I have seen in many years with one of the most biased referees I have ever seen. I knew Smoger for many years, always a gentleman and a real lover of the sport but what he did in this fight was disgraceful.

                    Murat is **** and was inactive and it looked like he didn't even train for this fight. Hopkins just trying to make more and more $ off "legacy" with easy fights.
