Not good: Bernard Hopkins showing signs of being a little punch drunk...

[Scary]

Probably just drunk.

I dont Think the man has been drunk, ever.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

No he's just really long winded, boring and self indulgent.

This guy spends 15 minutes answering a yes/no question and trying to sound intelligent.

OMG! I was thinking the same thing when watching the interview, something didn't seem right with bernard-like his years of fighting is catching up to him. Either that or he was just actually drunk or high on *******

[Humean]

Hopkins sounds fine to me, especially for someone who has been prizefighting for 26 years.

[Simurgh]

He is not drunk or drugged - he never drinks.

It's the loud music. Try it yourself. He is perfectly fine.

I wish him all the luck against the Kovalev. Although I am Kovalev's fan I wouldn't mind if Bernard takes this one. Man is the legend!

[Showtime..]

This dude is nearly 3x my age.. Damn

Kovalev will stop him if he fights smart.

[Interloper]

I just hope Kovalev avoids him. He can probably beat him, but even if he does, he'll be a ruined fighter. Bernard Hopkins ruins fighters. He'll never be the same afterwards.

[re-run]

I've heard him on a radio show, unfortunately he sounds pretty bad. Didn't even recognize it was him initially until I heard what he was talking about then I realized it was B-hop

[SN!PER]

Bernard sounds like a poet laureate compared to Rid**** Bowe and James Toney.

[Thuglife Nelo]

Unfortunately he sounds much worse now

He could have started drinking. That initial video was 2014. He has been heard far too many since that year sounding way better.
