    It was actually entertaining with all the clowning around done by both fighters and smoger.

    Yeah it actually turned out to be a good fighter, even with all dirty **** by both fighters. However, I feel more than ever that Hopkins should sit his old ass down. He was taking punches that he never would have taken even five years ago against much better opposition. He is just hanging around the fringes of the top guys and knocking off the busters and fattening his legacy as the oldest champion. I'm a Hopkins supporter but enough is enough.

    I was going to watch it (and I did) snoozefest or not, and it didn't disappoint at all. Good fight.

    Kovalev was Hopkins' mandatory, but Hopkins refused to fight him, now I know why...............Hopkins will never fight Stevenson either..............Murat had no business fighting for a title period..........

    Hopkins definitely won't be taking any risky fights from here on in... He's looking for one more big payday.

    You are saying a prime LHW would knock a 50 years old dude out? You sure?

    Yeah but Hopkins is almost good now as he ever was. It's not like he was crushing people when he was 24. He just got good the other day lol. Late bloomer.
