Obviously hes still one of the top P4P fighters in the world but as he mentioned on Friday night fights he hasn't had a stoppage since 04 and is anguish for one. Does he still have it?
Yep there was at least one legit knock down against Pascal. Hopkins doesn't try to go for the knockout, there is no wasted motion. He never throws haymakers and when he was getting stoppages that was to smaller guys at middleweight
He is pillowfisted. A slapper like Joe He is still winning at this age, its impressive but shows you how poor the era is when a 47 year old can win a belt. And everyone is bitching about the HW division. He can pull the trigger but can he pull the finger out of his ass? Whined like a little ***** when Roy stroked him behind the back.
he still punch. he just chooses and selects his counters. he knockdowned pascal 2 times in the last fight. but i think he can still do it. but dawson said he is gonna be more energetic so it should be interesting.
He can still pull the trigger, it's just his speed, sharpness, and timing are a fraction of what they used to be.
He has actually pulls the trigger more in his old age than he did in his prime. Dude was terribly boring and cautious in a lot of his fights at middleweight.
he can pull the trigger just fine against pumped up welters and lmws against guys his own size he'd prefer to feign low blows and crawl around the apron wailing like an injured seal
100% HATER right here. someone needs to find a new point in existing. and Never compare Hopkins' power to coke boy. Hopkins actually hurts people, scores knockdowns, and has more than 2 legitimate stoppages in his career.

Hopkins schooled Kelly Pavlik,and fought two fights against Jean Pascal,in pascals backyard...AND took his WBC title in the last fight....I really don´t see anything in the way Hopkins has fought that show he can´t pull the trigger... What he does at the age of 47 is unbeliveble!! But the day will come where he can´t do it anymore...I hope he beat Chad Dawson,and then retire...
