    Outside of what I pointed out, I got all the respect in the world for him, for real. He's a legend.

    Larry Holmes said George Foreman was fake as a two dollar bill with his nice guy act.


    With Bernard you know what you'll get, a down and to the point guy who has worked for everything hes achieved. Sure, he might not be your best friend if you're fighting him, but thats what Bernard is, a dog... hes true to his feelings.

    Some people were expecting him to turn into some bubbly comedian now that he's close to 50 :think

    Don't think he looks drained, just looks older than usual.

    You can clearly see his cheek bones. Doesn't look good to me.

    He did mention in an interview that he was finding it difficult to lose weight. (which is pretty obvious at the age of 48)

    :lol: Larry being bitter as usual

    Don't want to put too much emphasis on the weigh in but me too, because

    He is starting to look his age around his face, he looks a bit gaunt.

    Gotta agree with that.

    Bhop's style is exploiding holes on the boxing text book. This can be effective, but is like trying to win 100 meter dash at the olympics by using a new kind of shoes that gives 20% extra speed and have not been taken into account in the rule books and thus may not be illigal... it may be effective, but it is not what people want to see when they came to see 100 meter dash.

    They come to see the best runners, not who could bend the rules in the smartest ways...
