    As previously reported, 51-year-old former two-division world champion Bernard Hopkins is jumping back into the ring one last time ... and it's really ONE LAST according to his Golden Boy Promotions partner, Oscar De La Hoya ... who says he's making Hopkins promise to hang 'em up FOREVER.

      I was thinking more along the lines of no more coke and blow jobs during those Wednesday staff meetings. You've got to be at least semi coherent to enjoy it, otherwise Oscar will replace him with Mario Lopez, BBC or not.

            The guy that knocked out Andrej Fanfara...I don't know if I want to see this...Hopkins has used an extremely safety conscious style in the later stages of his career. He can make a real stinker out of this.

                  It takes a special kind of boxer to make a Kovalev fight boring ...Hopkins, Chilemba...zzzzzzzzzzzzz...if you're that worried about getting hit, why get in the ring?

                  Smith isn't a pushover, but I can see Hopkins luring him into one of his low output, sleep inducing fights.

                    Why the **** would the fans want to watch a 52 year old legend far past his prime fight a rough 21 year old prospect who just massacared Fonfara
