    I don't know how many of you have seen this, but i thought you might be interested to see the only knockdowns in BHop's carreer

    Hopkins also scored a KD in this fight but the ref didn't count it.

    Hopkins was actually dropped by a right off the break by Echols in their first fight, but it wasn't counted, obviously.

    Yeah, because Echols stole on Hopkins' ass in the worst way....well, not as bad as James Butler's post fight stealing of Grant.

    I'm waiting for Hopkins/Mercado 2 on youtube. If I get Hopkins' career set before someone uploads Hopkins/Mercado 2 to youtube, then I'll watch Hopkins' fights with Mercado.

    Go to 7:20 and watch the video starting from there. I recommend watching Beyond the Glory w/ Bernard Hopkins too.
