any article/link?? i have yet to see a detailed amateur career of hopkins. ...and i have defended hopkins in the past especially in the leadup to his fight against calzaghe. i read up on him, knew that he learned how to box while in jail and he had his 1st pro fight the same year he was released.
i don't know that, it has never really been written about or discussed and i doubt glenn the actor (turbofag) knew about it.
