Hopkins got his discipline from Hagler

Hopkins has also said that prison helped him learn discipline.

 

He showed remarkable rejuvenation in the Tarver fight ... i think the sole reason he could not keep up a high pace was the difficulty of making 160 after all these years.

He said he will be very active in the Winky fight so who knows .. we can judge after that.
! thing is for sure though he is definately 1 of the most disciplined boxers right now i have never seen him come in anything but tip top shape and he has no history whatsoever of blowingup between fights.

 

you cant get your discipline from any one.

 

That's the truth. If you could, I probably would have followed through on my plan to get up and run three miles when my alarm went off this morning, rather than shutting it off and going back to sleep.

Hopkins is the same age I am; I am in awe of his work ethic and commitment.
