        LOL! are you saying hopkins was battleing anarexia to beat up on little middelweight?

        taylor will win, and let include calzaghe in the mix. If he's willing he could challege any of these guys.

        If fight takes place in europe, i got joe calzaghe over either taylor or hopkins.

          It's a storybook ending. I say ride off into the sunset with this one, and let historians try to talk **** about him now. Hopkins is one of the best to ever do it.

              Taylor will not get past Winky, he's very overrated,BHop is a slow starter and the fights were still very controversial.I think he has done it all and can retire with his head held very high.And thanks Bhop for getting Tarver out of the picture man he's irritating.

                  Hopkins made a promise to his mom, that he would retire before the age of 41. Ofcourse he broke that promise when he faced Taylor the second time, and yet again with this current fight. I feel that he no longer has anything to prove; he won this LH bout decisively against a champion, he's a well rounded fighter and will retire as one of the best middleweights to ever step foot into the square ring. 'B-Hop' should stand by his promise and just promote from now on.

                    When he finds out how much money he'll get for fighting Calzaghe he might stay.

                      Bhops should hang those gloves up. He has cemented his legacy with that win. Nobody wins against father time so he should know when to quit.
