      Hopkins talks about why he is going to win.

      When I listen to Hopkins, I hear a lot more conviction, passion & belief in what he says. All Tarver seems to do is moan. Come on Bernie!

          Did you guys notice when Tarver cries about him being on the left side, Hopkins is smiling, he finds it very funny about tarver bitching...he just makes his look ******. classic hopkins

          Lampley:

          "Bernard, do you feel Antonio is sincere in saying that he feels that he has been slighted out leading up to this bout"

          Hopkins:

          "I think Antonio Tarver is going to say what hes got to say, truthfully I dont care where my picture is at, as long as I get him come June 10th and make History like no other middleweight has ever done. So he can complain and worry about whos on this cover and whos on that cover, whos on that first whos on that second, but to me that does'nt matter, thats not important, to me whats important is kicking his but come June 10th, making history and going out like a champ.

            I've got a feeling that this fight - dubbed by HBO as "two old farts in a 12-round feinting competition" - will see Hopkins the winner on points.

            Tarver will be crying on the ropes again, saying to Buddy McGirt "I threw three punches a round, dawg! I was robbed!"

            You see if I'm not right, or close.

              Lampley: "Why are you going to win this fight Bernard?"


              Hopkins: "Im the better fighter, the better athlete, totally all pound for pound all around the world, people know that I can do it all, Antonio Tarver dont have those credentials right now, Right now I am a hall of famer, whatever happens June 10th he has to work years and beat other great fighters to become that, June 10th ill prove it."

                "why am i on the left side? thats very disrespectful" one day, tarver's gonna have to realize that some things happen that just dont matter. who gives a **** what side of the screen this jackass is on?

                congratulations, antonio tarver. you are the first champion (maybe fighter) to ever complain or care about what side of the screen hes on. its comments/complaints like that that prevent you from getting the respect that you say you "deserve". that and calling out fighters like mike tyson and vitali klitschko, neither who are LHWs and neither who are actively boxing.

                its comments like that and people like tarver that makes people not respect the sport of boxing anymore. the LWH champ of the world complaining about what side of "the screen" that hes on im sure is something that alot of people would like to hear about.

                  I hope Bernard wins. I don't think that laid back for the first half of the fight style is gonna do it for him. He needs to let Tarver know from the beginning, that he's here to win.

                    Hopkins is the man.

                    "June 10th. On June 10th there will be beatdown. On PPV. June 10th. June 10th, did i mention June 10th? June 10 PPV only. I will make history June 10th, by beating Tarver June 10th. June 10th."

                    He's answers the question of whether he gets more money based on how well the PPV sells without even being asked. June 10th.

                      Hopkins will always be the better fighter no matter what .Tarver reminds me of Macho Man a few years back calling out old even retired fighters to make up for lost time. It didnt make Macho look any better and it's not making Tarver look any better
