    He has a 94-5 amateur record, it was cut short by prison.

    Wow I always thought he was like Salvador Sanchez (went 14-0 as a amateur) and had little experience. Still he's really turned his life around, he's a inspiration not just to the sport of boxing, but for all sports IMO.

    He's a boring old ******* who spoils fights. Horrible to watch.

    Wow, great story. I didn't know he had been in prison for nearly five years. I mean, I know he made his own decisions to go to jail, but when you think about it like that, and he's perhaps one of the top 3 middleweights of all time, then damn it's an even bigger achievement. It's pretty clear, or at least could be, that B-Hop continues to fight now because of time he lost in prison. Do Your thing B-Hop.

    I know a few guys that did time with B-Hop, they say he was bad ass in prison. Nobody messed with him, NOBODY!
