    Hilarious clip. Listen from 2:30 on...

    Long pause........ "No"

    Also says Roy is the only guy who has ever legitimately beat him, and thinks Jones has a very good chance of winning. Also the photo of toothy bernard is priceless

    Bitter loser, he got his face worked over worse than any fight he's had, and by a white guy, no wonder he's livid lollllllllllllllll he's angrier than a bag of wasps at the mention of Joe's name.

    Bhop is just a little bitter I think, but I like him. He keeps it real, no fluff.

    He says joe isn't in the top ten best of the last 15 years.

    I like the interview, Bernard is good value. I don't think he sounds bitter, he gives Roy Jones full credit for beating him hands down, and calls him a true great of his generation.

    No way Joe beats a prime Hopkins!!! that's for sure!!! if you dont agree you are simply a Calzaghe lover.

    P.S> I am not a Hopkins fan. But I sure respect him.

    Hopkins also said he wouldn't lose to a white boy.

    A prime Calzaghe would have put more pressure on Hopkins than the 35 year old version did.

    so bernard is admitting it doesn't take anyone that special to beat him? jermaine taylor beat him twice after all. thanks for clearing that up snaggletooth.

    Hopkins used to be a 12 round fighter, with much better defense and reflexes back then.

    And there fight was actually close at what? 42 or 43 .
