    Ive found Hopkins inspirational since moving up to LHW.
    At MW he was a much bigger fighter who showed fantastic discipline to keep making weight and being the naturally bigger fighter, but at LHW he is fighting fighters his own size and often found ways to win.
    Fighting Cloud at Hopkins age is very inspirational

    I'd love to see that racist old ******* get knocked cold. The kind of knockout where he's laying there with a stroke face for like five minutes and the announcers are starting to talk about how good the doctors are.

    I like B-Hop & respect his sacrifice to remain in top shape avoiding all the pitfalls that consume most atheletes in his position.

    Hopkins is about as boring as it gets I haven't watched one of his fights since Calzaghe. Got sick of all the one punch then leading with his head, the fake low blows, the wrestling, grabbing, holding, fouling, etc.

    Hopkins never fails to amaze me. Just when I think he is finally done, he comes back with another great performance. Not the most exciting fighter in the world, but the man is nearing 50 years old and still fighting at a high level, in a sport that is much more suited for men in their 20's. That is totally inspirational. I wouldn't care to see him get knocked out, what would it really prove?

    It wouldn't "prove" anything. It would just be nice to see a racist old ******* lying there unconscious.

    Definitely don't want him to get sparked by Cloud but if Bhop has anything left
    then it won't happen anyway.

    I've spent some time in Eugene. Nice place. A bit too many hippies for my liking, but a nice place.

    I am white, and I found his comment to Calzaghe about not letting a white boy beat him funny as hell.:lol:

    I didn't take it personal.
