    Does this not mean that he's clearly not what he once was, considering he's now in his 40s?

    Kinda takes away from the guy who just got a win over him, no?

    Thanks to JC, even though he was decked in the 1st and fought clumsily throughout, exposed him for what he truly is, 43 year old boxer whose best days are gone.

    Hopkins was done years ago, probably the most over rated 160lb fighter of all time. Joe exposed him and he needs to retire now.

    So you say Hopkins was done and Joe exposed him. So are you giving credit to Joe for beating an old Hopkins?

    I agree -Joe should retire if he struggled that bad with the oldest of the LHW champs.

    Hopkins would make any boxer look bad. His spoiling is almost masterful. I think Calzaghe ain't the boxer he was but I wouldn't draw too much from this fight, even though he won comfortably.

    :blood :huh are u serious?
    I mean what dou expect from a 43 year old man who fought the best of the best in his last fights.

    Props to Bernard for standing his ground against them at his age.

    Its the system trying to **** over Bernie cos they fear him and Golden boy promotions.

    They even tried to put a Phily women in the judges panel so they could rob Bernie.

    I agree with your first line. He IS overrated. And you know why? because he TALKED himself bigger than he is. Stupid, he better used another tactic, ie referring that he's old but at least trying. Than he would've got more credit.
