    Everyone was predicting Tito to win, except me. I knew better. Hopkins is good fighter, but he went against Don King........

    I've seen a few clips of it. Those Puerto Ricans weren't playing.

    it was very real. Hopkins has balls of steel to pull off a stunt like that.

    I must admit....even though i'm a latino ( black and white hispanic) my favorite live boxing moment was when hopkins knocked out trinidad.

    My god that was a great moment!
