    Dan Rafael just Reported on ESPNNews that Not Only was Roy Jones Taken to the Hospital, but that Bernard Hopkins COLLAPSED in his Dressing Room & was Taken to the Hospital as Well....

    Hops won the fight but Jones won the war?!?!?!
    Anyway, hope both recover just fine. Don't want to see the old dogs getting hurt permanently.

    It was probably exhaustion for both guys.

    hopkins bullshit-lapsed and is still faking it in the hospital.

    that sucks. i hope both guys are okay. i think a lot of folks are forgetting that bernard is in his mid 40s.

    Well seeing as how Hops was the one constantly speaking about death saying shit like Roy's life is in Merkison's hands and shit, him going to the hospital seems a tad bit like karma to me.

    Still, I hope they're both okay and that both retire.

    Did you just use the word "war" in reference to this fight?

    Any word on the fighters? Both ok?

    I heard they were taken to Jones Hopkins for observation......

    coming into this fight, we all knew roy jones was shot. after seeing hopkins' previous fight vs. that mexican middleweight and seeing as how he looked tonight, i think it's safe to say that hopkins is pretty much done as well.

    i think haye vs. hopkins would be a criminal mismatch.

    Hopkins can't have Roy getting all the attention.

    Rabbit punches take their toll on a fighter after a while...just ask Gerard McClellan....

    Agreed but these weren't Nigel Benn crushing shots to the back of the head.

    I can only assume that Bernard wants to be rabitt punched by the best there is....and so is demanding Haye.

    Bernard got taken to school, according to Boxingscene.

    "Largely back and forth while consistently non-interesting in the first five rounds, the fight livened up in the sixth only when Jones landed a blow behind Hopkins’ head that drove him to the campus"

    This was a dreadful event. I feel bad for anyone who actually paid for it. Hopkins beat out Dirrell for the Academy Award for his performance last night.

    Roy-Hopins III takes place in a few years when the two start fighting over apple sauce, and a bingo game.

    Hopkins calling out David Haye?

    Does B Hop have a death wish?

    I have spent time with Hopkins, and I can tell you all, he means what he says.
