    Ignoring knowledge and indulging in echolocation.
    I felt there might have been a possible avenue to bash Hopkins, but was misled clicking on the link that featured nothing already said in this thread,.. Im pissed off,.. I pride myself in never having visited the 'homepage' since welching the Green - Toney sparring sessions,.. NOOO I said and quickly clicked the 'X' ..but it was too late, it still registers as a 'hit' on alexa..

    Why retire now when he can collect one last big fat paycheck against an easy opponent (Trinidad) who will be an easier victim than eight years ago?:dunno:

    Because he can unretire anytime he wants to.
