Hopkins went to court and sued Taylor saying that he didn't beat him (after the 1st fight). He said he wanted his belts back and he went to court to try to get them back. Does it take away respect? Yes it does.
Did you saw his last interview on ESPN, when he was promoting the Tarver fight, the guy was still bitching about the Taylor fight, he's so full off ****.
Yes I think he's a great fighter, one of the best middleweight of all time, he's also the biggest crybaby I've ever seen in my life.
I think Hopkins felt disrespected. After reigning on top for like 10 years... the judges don't give him the nod... twice in a fight that many people felt he won. When something is your life work and you were to get it snatched away from you, I doubt you'd take it in good fashion or with a hearty chuckle.

A man should get over it, he's not doing it, considering he lost the ESPN polls by a pretty big margin.

He said something along the lines of "I'm going to this Tarver fight having in mind that I'm still the king of the middleweight division. Jermain didn't beat me. I'm the champion and Tarver is going to challenege for my #1 spot". It was to that point of dillusional already.
I agree Hopkins will probably beat Winky, I was comparing D, not who's gonna win the fight. I think Toney, PBF & Winky has better D.
I have no problem with trash talking, I do have a problem when a fighter bitches forever, yea many fighters in the past has bitched, but Hopkins took it to another level.
i understand but, in my opinion that was his way of psyching himself to get ready to fight trinidad who at the time looked like a monter wrecking ball, i truly felt he would beat hopkins but hopkins pissed me off by not standing and fighting with trinidad from the first round........damn, his startagy and his un eggerness to grant a rematch

He tried to brainwash most of the fans & is still trying, funny thing after all of his BS, he still lost the poll.

The man is a great fighter, the guy was P4P #1 guy, considering his age, you will never see a P4P #1 guy at the age of 39 or 40.
The thing is he beat Tito so clearly, I don't think anyone wanted to see the rematch.

don't lie to me gunstar, gunstar! don't lie to me, you know a rematch would have still sold and king was ready to make a fight happen, trinidad still could sell a ppv, look at his ppv number for mayorga and winky all sold by trinidad as well as the hopkins fight
