Bernard Hopkins promised Quincy Taylor, my friend in Texas, that he would beat Keith Holmes for him. Quincy had defended the WBC middleweight title against Holmes & got blatantly robbed by Richard Steele who stopped the contest unnecessarily. Bernard was defending his title on same card. The fact Holmes was managed by Don king's step son Carl had nothing to do with it I suppose. ?????? We all know the affiliation of King & Steele Kinda like todays Mayweather/Cortez/Bayless affiliation Thanks Bernard
