    It's alright Beercules. Some of us were watching boxing as babies and others had to find it on their own. Hell I'm 30 but I remember all the good fights since the early 90's because my dad was an avid boxing fan.

        It's simple really, where was Toney, when Hopkins was dominating the sport of boxing....in his jail cell?

          Maybe I should make a Pacquiao or a Mayweather thread since you love to b*tch about NSB all the time.


          But then I ask a genuine question and you come in here spewing nonsense as usual Lawrence. At least PBP answered my question logically, no idea what you're doing.

            It was actually going to happen in 2003.

            Fight was all set to go but Hopkins pulled out at the last minute.

              No i just see you on here acting like you have boxing knowledge when you clearly are a noob and when you are exposed you disappear or try to change the subject..you know nothing of the sport of boxing period and can most likely not even name 50 boxers

                No Larry I don't know it all and I learn things from knowledgable posters on this forum, you don't fall into that catagory IMO.


                Now unless you have something useful to contribute to this thread, **** off and get out.

                    Hopkins struggled to get a lot of fights made while under King. Beef over fighter/promoter splits led to the nixing of a few big fights.
