If Hopkins wins his next fight

[Citizen Koba]

Of course I know his nickname is the executioner, I just didn't add 2+2 together. That doesn't explain why other fighters do it as well though.

Anyway, thanks for your assistance, you charmer.

I think some other guys have simply copied it - after all there's only so many gestures you can make once the gloves are on and they're announcing you. LOL it's not like you can start reciting Shakespeare in ASL. Other popular ones are the evergreen Air-Punch (sometimes preceded by drum-roll of uppercuts, a la Kovalev) or the Throat Slit (I'm sure Curtis will give us a display tonight).

And don't beat up on yourself, you probably shouldda picked up on the 'X'ecutioner, but everyone's made similar faux-pas at one time or another.

Cheers for that detailed explanation bro. That's 1 minute of my life I'll never get back.

You'll need to make this up to me in the future, yeah?

And he does it with out to much trouble? Do you think he then beats Stevenson?

Nah since Stevenson is a lefty and Hopkins looked awkward against left handed Dawson. Stevenson will land clean on him and win....

Nah. Shumenov has no trainer and apparently no gameplan.

wtf.....Shumenov has no trainer?

Guy's got lots of $s tho, apparently got a fully equped gym in his basement and mountains of fight footage...perhaps he thinks that'll do the job? smh.

'Now his family....is amongst the wealthiest in the country'...I can't put a figure to that, but for those who are familiar with the history of the rise of new capital and oligararchy in the ex-soviet states - the guy could well be (at least by inheritance), the wealthiest pro boxer alive.
