This keeps taking on more and more of a feel of one of those sad fights that when we all look back on it we will wish Bernard had people around him who cared about him. Hopkins even has the look of a guy on his way to the gallows. Not some bs "shook" look, but one of resignation. Bernard hasn't stopped anyone in a decade and his low activity rate coupled with his fifty year old body will cause him to wilt early here. High praise to the man for taking this fight either way when he has nothing left to prove.

This fight doesn't take anything away from B-Hops career, he still has made a significant mark in the sport. However, it is time for the younger warriors to take over and as is the case, they have to take over at the expense of the previous generation.
Kovalev will win this fight shockingly and usher in a new LHW era.

Yep. Hopkins is still a legend regardless of what happens tomorrow. He has said many times that someone will need to actually beat him out of the sport. I have no doubt that will happen tomorrow in brutal fashion.This fight doesn't take anything away from B-Hops career, he still has made a significant mark in the sport.

gotta go with the guy closer to my age...WISDOM OVER YOUTH !/besides the fact i don't know enough about kov.,which in itself speaks volumes of inexperience,and hype.Bernard,if he's got one more big fight left in him,exploits just that kind of fighter...but thats a big "if",at nearly 50 yrs of age.So bernard by close decision is my choiceComment

Yeah, lets just ignore the fact that he's been chasing top fighters for about 450 days and got ducked twice, by two of them.......
Lets also ignore the fact that with that in mind, he fought and dominated the unified champ of the division by the time of his 17-18th fight. Lets just forget about these things. You guys know sooo much about boxing.
Maybe it's best you kept quiet and didn't say it

"peeleft: Kova will piss all over B-Hop this fight...this is a last payday hyped up fight that will be boring and not even be close because Hopkins will run and never engage Kova
