Comments Thread For: Hopkins: He Was Fading, I Was Coming On, Pushed Me Out of Ring

[SN!PER]

Hopkins seriously has a head of iron.

Drops eight feet upside down onto concrete and complains about his ankle.

To me this looked like old fox Bhop slickly pushed himself out of the ring. There was no way Smith shoved him, I watched the video like 10 times.

As much as this pains me to say, BHOP wanted an out. He had plenty of time to get back in the ring and once he started talking about his legs being tingly, I knew he didn't want to fight anymore. With that being said, I think he is right that Joe was starting to fade and he would have pulled away with the decision. Sad to see EX go out like this, but I hope he stays retired now. Nothing left to prove. Been saying that for ages now it seems. Time for the legend to hang em up.

lol that's def. something Hopkins would say. I think when he watches the replay he'll see that the punch shot him back.

Well when one is totally rocked and basically standing on one leg getting hit a couple more times good then getting hit square in the face with a hook from a pretty large man that will create a large force that will have a pushing effect with an assist from gravity.

He got rocked and knocked silly, then fell on his head plus it is B-Hop so he would always say something like that.
