People sleep on this mans ring IQ and his unbreakable chin. Until he is 50 he is live against anybody in the sport. He is crafty, impossible to put down and has a great chance to grab a victory vs Pascal tonight. People think of his age first but forget about his 2 best assets the brain and chin both which age has not yet effected. BHOP = ATG Philly at it's finest.
I hope for your sake this thread is being said tounge in cheek. Hopkins is probably one of the most ring savvy fighters out there, but if you think he is unstoppable and impossible to put down, then you have AIDS. People also think about his age and recognise that he can't keep any sort of high workrate, which he will probably need tonight against someone who is pretty much in their prime in superb condition. Is 50 some sort of magical cut off date or something? Or at 50 does Hopkins soley rely on pretending that he has been punched in the nuts?
Hopkins can throw maybe 28 punches a round. Pascal can throw 70 for the first 6 rounds then wheeze his way through the last 6. This should be a shitfest.
That makes him hard to KO, yes, but not necessarily hard to beat because of his This content is protected punch output and not much power
The know it all you are. How was Hopkins work rate ? Threw more punches, landed more was the busier more effective fighter. Schooled son.
