    Bernard Hopkins is such a cunt. Why would a great fighter like that keep fighting into his 50s until he gets knocked the fuck out?

    In Fairness, Aside from the 3 Times he Actually Lost to Whiteboys, Bernard NEVER Lost to a Whiteboy...

    Mans gotta know his limitations sly.

    It's a bit like you, going around, picking up all those underage white chicks, pulling your old tired blacksnake out of your trousers, expecting him to perform....

    ....then you wake up in a ditch without your breeches and your wallet, and a pain in your anus.

    But...there you are again, the following Saturday night down the same shitty singles bars, looking to land the big one....

    I've always liked Bernard, but he really says some dumb shit sometimes. :lol:



    You could almost tell when Max was interviewing him after the fight, Bernard was starting to fully realize he was full of shit near the end of the interview. It's also why I've never been a fan of post-fight interviews. Especially from guys who just got concussed by the other guy.

    When Hopkins blubbered on for like 10 minutes and then said "I'm not in denial!" I almost peed myself.

    lol

    I was doing it to get this type of reaction from you. I'm in a mischievous mood today. I knew it would wipe the e-smile off your face. You see, just like Roy Jones before him. I don't see Hopkins being knocked out as a laughing matter. It's tragic.

    Hopkins is only two fights removed from beating actual contenders and this was a winnable fight for him. It's the first time he's been stopped and it was his last fight. I don't really see the tragedy and the cliches, tbh.

    Hopkins has for the most part protected himself from taking a lot of punishment throughout his career, but I guess if there is a tragedy here, it's that he's 50+ and still taking punches to the head.

    Could be much worse. At least it was on his terms and he stayed at a high level for a long time while still staying relatively healthy. He could have been a childhood prodigy like a Wilfred Benitez, Jerry Quarry, Fernando Vargas or Meldrick Taylor and ended up punch drunk by his early 30's.

    As soon as it became clear he couldn't operate at a world class level he announced his retirement fight against a handpicked guy. That he didn't fall off until he was 51 and seems sincere about retiring now that he hasn't got it anymore seems like a triumph. You guys are talking like he's been getting knocked out for years and just can't let it go.

    51 isnt that old by regular standards so seeing him get ktfo in such comical fashion is funny. FUNNY, I SAY!!!!

    I would've moved too. He wasn't a damsel in distress he was an athlete in the middle of an event.

    Just as REED Suspected, there Was NO Point, Other than Being a Fucking DICK...And Dragging Roy Jones Down w/You in the Process...

    Agreed, boxing is a brutal sport that usually comes with far more downs than ups. Hopkins is one of the lucky few who managed to truly benefit from it, even in his mid-age. I like Hopkins, was rooting for him to catch Smith Jr. (who wouldn't have won a round with the Hopkins of even a few years ago) with a hard right hand and lay him out cold. Still I won't deny that the knock out was really sweet and that it was funny as hell (and yes a little sad) seeing Hopkins delusional ass talking about how he was controlling the fight and frustrating him. Plus, as you said, 3 fights ago, Hopkins was beating contenders (and even in his loss to Kovalev, he didn't do any worse than pretty much any top lhw did). To each his own but I prefer seeing a great fighter ending his career like Hopkins than quitting while he still can kick some ass like Lewis did.

    I thought it was a guy from the Smith team, who didn't want to give Hopkins an helping hand. If it's someone from the commission or a fan, it's really a bitch move.
