Lest we not forget... Saint Bernard the Holy Executioner finally shut Tarver's mouth up! That alone deserves respect.
McGrain , so whats the differance between that and ppl booing another country's national anthem ? . to me either is dissrespectful , and at the end of the day benard is a atg fighter but still had little to no class . you don't have to act like a ******* to be a great champion , lennox lewis didn't , coto hasn't , kelly pavlik hasn't , and all those guys are well respected and have sold tickets to fights so theres really no reason for benard to carry himself like that .
At least, people already know what he wants to get inside Calzaghe's head - a left, a right hand and to assassin/execute his southpaw jab - so he's not going to do anything to him at the weigh-in... Nothing out of the ordinary, maybe a stare, a couple of words, make him feel his breath, one accidental spit, nothing to worry about.
coming from a guy living in a country where Neo-nazi parties have a LARGE following (and don't deny this **** cause I'll expose your ass) you've got a lot to learn about the term racism:deal
you are and idot, look at most of hopkings videos, his always with some white guy that important to him.
Come on his "I'll never let a whiteboy " statement is blatant ,and obviously pre meditated and is the type of stuff people use to stir controversy (and sell tickets). I mean if he were really racist he would probably say something like "****ing *******s can't box, we all know blacks are superior athletes" and then said it with a straight face with total conviction then you might have a case. But this is Boxing, where people will almost say anything to make a buck, so be wiser , I know you can do it buddy :good
Hopkins wins against all odds. When he doesn't it's because it was very very close, or against a true ATG like RJJ. The only way you couldn't appreciate Hopkins is if you are not so much interested in teh sweet science, but prefer protected and isolated, nationalized, semi-great fighters. What's that guys name again, Kissley??
My mentality is: that Hopkins getting out of that room alive is really, really cool. Not a lot of men could have done it unomolested. It was a hell of a thing to do. It might not have been politically correct, but I don't give a flying ****.
