Check this out, Hopkins shows himself to be a Klitschko hater and a Hayenuthugger. Not much a surprise, even though Hopkins style is more like Klitschko than Haye... http://www.boxinginsider.com/headlines/bernard-hopkins-attempts-to-diminish-the-klitschkos/
Hopkins doesn't have half the power at LHW than Wlad has as a HW... Wlad knocks people out, B-Hop hugs to an UD
Hopkins paints himself as being very insecure. For all his talk of genetic superiority and the natural slickness of black fighters, he's been a crude physical spoiler for most of his career. As someone who's had to use hard work and smarts to deal with physically superior white, black, and hispanic fighters throughout his career you figure he would know better.
Of course he does. He doesnt like any white fighters. The man is a racist. If he was white and said some of the things he does about blacks, he would be banned from any TV network. Can you imagine him saying white fighter are genetically superior, or that he would never lose to a black guy? I used to like Hopkins, but over the last 6 or so years, Ive lost respect for the man.
Old people like to make statements but got ignored most of the time, so they have to say something controversial to be heard...
you can put the race card away nazim richardson has said he thinks wlad could beat any heavyweight of any era.
i remember Hopkins said Ruiz had a good chance to beat Haye and that he would fight Ruiz for WBA title after if he did beat Haye, to equal the hwt achievement of Roy Jones.
Brother Naazim is cool and real. Hopkins would never ever say something so complimentary about the Klitschkos, even though he likely believes it in his heart of hearts. Hopks knows the Klitschkos are great but he is too proud to admit it.
Slightly hypocritical of the writer to condemn Hopkins for praising Haye then finish his article with a statement that slags off Haye. By showing his own dislike for Haye he takes credibility away from his point about Hopkins.
