    Hopkins has had an exciting fight?

    He's the dullest, most repetitive boxer in the world bar Andre Fraud. Headbutts, holding and faking injuries does not make an exciting fight.

    So in your opinion Hopkins has not had one single exciting fight?

    Pavlik was the most exciting performance hes ever given .

    Even I thought Hopkins was going to be leaving out in a stretcher .

    Luckily two of the top LHW we currently have, kinda match that description :yep
    Hopkins against Stevenson or KOvalev, it doesn’t matter because both will be good fights.

    Loved Hopkins doing pushups in the ring for Pascal 2! Hop
    ruined Pavlik by winning every second of every round.
    Even in Dawson 2, Hops defense was incredible but his
    offense sucked. I have to watch the chols fight myself.
    Also noone mentioned Taylor, entertaining fights.
    Taylor deserved the win in the first, second is debateable.

    Hopkins virtuoso performances :deal vs G. Johnson, Trinidad, Tarver, Pavlik, Pascal II (Bernard becomes oldest to win world title), Cloud (beats his own record). I didn't really know him until he schooled Trinidad. I remember he said he was going to in an interview on TV before the fight.

    Ok, I just watched Hopkins vs. Echols II

    ****ing hell what a scrap. These guys are dirty muthers and it was just as entertaining for all the dodgy **** going on, than for the boxing action and dominating Hopkins performance.

    Rabbit punching
    Corner telling Echols to foul
    Hopkins getting slammed and dislocating his shoulder...getting up and schooling the rest of the round with one hand (might have been an act?)
    Echols corner kicking the ice bucket
    Weeks pushing Hopkins over
    Bhop holding hitting

    Echols is a character aye

    Hard to say since there have been so many.

    Allen
    Tito
    Pavlik
    Shumenov

    Are a few.

    What's really strange is that Hopkins is a boxer's boxer. Meaning every current boxer watches and appreciates Bernard Hopkins fights and hold him in very high regard.
    To hear these Gimps on ESB speak disrepectful of BHOP only shows that their opinion is contrary to ever current good boxer and shows that they DKSAB.
