Hopkins criticises Mayweather (video)

Who gives a flying **** what Hop or any other fighter ha to say about Floyd OR any other fighter. The only people who give it **** are the critics of the fighter that is being criticized.

 

okay /thread

 

The kid grew up middle class and never had to work a day in his life because of his talent ..

You never heard the stories of him talking about his dad's rolls of cash

Real tough life .

Do you even know the Hawk's back story and you want to talk about Mental toughness ?

And honestly I was more referring to the Hawk's head movement Floyd wouldn't be as accurate with a guy like Pryor in his face ..He's a grinder that can box and bang with good hand speed .

 

I already said Sergio is sliping so how am i given Cotto praise? he still made Canelo come down to 152 and since Canelo couldnt make 154 in his last fight maybe it did effect him a bit( honestly though if he had let Canelo come in at 154 the fight would have 95% sure gone the same way so there was no need to make him drop down to 152). i think if he did go up and fight Golovkin people would be very impressed just ,when he agreed to fight Canelo i was very impressed i would be a lot more impressed if he faught Golovkin at 160 and won.

I honestly couldnt care about him fighting Pac anymore i think pacman has slipped

 

I don't know. I've seen my mother on drugs, coming in to steal to TVs and ****, and it's a hard thing. Losing people AIDS/Cancer is a hard thing.

I didn't say he was the most mentally tough fighter ever, I said in the sport today.

And If Im not mistaken. Aaron Pryor ended up a drug addict. A cocaine addict to be exact. That's not mentally tough to me.

 

Lets look at their last 10 fights then.

1. Henry Buchanan.
2. Edison Miranda
3. Shelby Pudwill
4. Mikkel Kessler
5. Allan Green
6. Sakio Bika
7. Arthur Abraham.
8. Carl Froch
9. Chad Dwason
10. Edwin Rodriguez

Now lets look at floyd's last 10.

1. Zab Judah
2. Carlos Baldomir
3. Osar De La Hoya
4. Ricky Hatton.
5. Juan Marquez
6. Shane Mosley
7. Victor Ortiz
8. Miguel Cotto
9. Robert Guerrero
10. Canelo Avalrez

 

Ward has a better resume than a lot of boxers over the course of the last 5 years. Floyd has a better career period!

 

Bernard can say what he wants, he earned it. The man got robbed 3 times by the judges, fought all the best fighters of his weight and his era, and is still top 5 despite being 50. In boxing history, Hopkins is right up there with Mayweather, perhaps even above if you account for the fact that he fought his biggest challenges instead of avoiding them.

His record would have been a lot different if he was a protected money fighter. For once, Calzaghe would have never gotten a nod over him (I had Joe 1 point ahead, but could see the fight go either way) and no way in hell Taylor would have gotten those wins (I had Bhop win the first fight clearly, second fight was much closer). He fought the who's who, all the different styles, and you better believe that if there was a man like Pac in his weight class, Bernard would be knocking at his door with a signed contract.

 

And how much they made too lol... That doesn't matter though does it? Yeah I know.

 

If as in Breakdown, you mean adding a negative adjective to everyone Floyd fought.

Like instead of saying that Ortiz was coming off FOTY against the THEN undefeated and highly touted Berto.

You say : "Ortiz LOST to Josesito Lopez and Collazo, and what he got the Floyd fight cause he beat BERTO? "

then no. don't give us your breakdown.

 

No need to. You can't really argue against that, any argument that somehow favours Wards last 10 over Floyds last 10 just shows extreme bias and delusion.

 

This would've been a very good post without the Mayweather insinuations.
