Hopkins-Shumenov Malignaggi-Porter & Undercards RbR Discussion Thread

[Bushidō]

I don't know if Dawson is damaged goods for good, but this is a fight Hopkins should want if they're not unifying next....but if he fights stevenson again, he might have flashbacks, haha

Nah it wouldn't make sense for Hopkins to choose Dawson. Even current state Dawson would beat Hopkins.

What 165-5-1 is the compiled record of his competition recently? At 50 years of age.....I mean who else out there in any weight class is doing stuff like this? Beating undefeated guys 20 years younger than them. Dudes keep losing and the "old man" keeps racking up the wins. Hopkins is and has been a deep ATG for a few years now.

Who did Hopkins beat who was undefeated who is 20 years younger than him? Remind me I must have missed it unless you're talking about Cloud who was dominated by Campillo in his fight prior but robbed?

Well yeah obviously he's an ATG. Top 15? Yeah because he beat the great Shumenov!

I wouldn't call the light heavyweights a joke.

Cloud-Murat-Shumy what would you call that rag-tag troupe of pugilists.

Somebody suspend that judge that had it 114-113. I'm so sick of this ****.

being old doesn't have that much value. hopkins isn't climbing the ladder to any great degree beating a guy like shumenov. the guy literally taught himself to box. 15 fight pro. zero head movement. none. i've never seen anything like it. he has no trainer.

[doubletake]

Lol the judge that scored it for Shumenov is one of the ones that scored Garcia-Herrera. I'll let that sink in for a bit.

[mathed]

Has Chad Dawson retired or are you forgetting that he dominated him?

Or are you talking about Shumenov since you think he was undefeated before this fight (He wasn't)

Chad is a shell of himself, he is passed it and BHOP would destroy him in another fight.

I just want to see you defend your stance.

[Hougigo]

He didn't look good against Campillo either, but you'd think that fighting someone like B-Hop would motivate a fighter to develop their skills or come up with a great strategy. He looked clueless to say the least.

Dude says his heart is in the game, but I can't take him seriously. Long periods of inactivity, doesn't want to get a trainer (seriously.... is he gonna teach himself what he doesn't know?) and his biggest step ups, he's lost.

Seriously.... didn't even bother to get a trainer to teach him how to fight....how was that even a good idea?

[GOD-FR33]

Smh again.......

Yup. Now you see why he doesn't want to fight Ward. Ward would piss on his grave. Hahaha!

Top 15 ATG stuff, those three.
