    I give Hopkins so much credit for making big fights where the outcome isn't predetermined. Looking forward to a 50/50 fight for once. Mayweather/Quillen/Stephenson should be ashamed watching this old man show them how a true champ goes about his business.

      These boxing "journalists" today aren't journalists at all. They have the standard questions they ask every boxer, every time. They will never ask them anything controversial regarding themselves.. Like I'd grill Hopkins about testing - what he thinks about it, and if he thinks it's good for the sport, why doesn't he want it for himself and his opponents? To make an example for the younger guys..


      All these fools do is let these boxers cover their own ****ing antics...

        The fact that Hopkins was never knocked out will echo throughout the ages whenever historians discuss his legacy.

        Don't fck that bragging right up Hop.

        That statistic holds more weight than we give credit.

          He was asked about it and he deflected by saying something about certain journalists being jealous cos they're not in shape. Pretty sure he was referring to Fat Dan.

            The man is 50 years old, if Kovalev is a fraction of the fighter he has been hyped up to be, Hopkins should be getting carried out of the ring on a gurney.

                    well to be fair kathy that is how life works. I have not decided who i will root for but to pretend hopkins being 50 does not have anything to do with the fight is just ridiculous of course it does. that dont mean if your fighter wins that people will discredit him because of it if anything people have put kovolov in high regards maybe even higher then deserved me included but can we just see what happens saturday? if hopkins wins imo it will be one of the most memorable moments in boxing history it has that rumble in the jungle feel. You got the younger unstoppable "hardest hitting ever" fighter against the aging if not over the hill legend. Its just got that feel like hopkins is about to give a master class
