    Hopkins has often defied the odds. It helps define his boxing legend.

    Are you joking? Did you not here that body shot he hit Caparello with? Just the sound of it was terrifying!

    Lmfao tarver never knocked out anyone good apart from jones


    Rjj faught him as a middleweight ,kovalev is a light heavyweight he hits way harder than the 175 version of jones Hopkins also faught anyway

    I don't know if you realise but Tito was a welterweight , kovalev is a lightheavyweight, I hope that new doesn't shock you too much lmfao

    Just above decent so, doesn't change the fact kovalev hits a lot harder than target and that Hopkins is 8 years older now

    He looks so good because he's fighting *the shittiest* opposition available.

    Call me when the TOMATO KAN Krusher looks good against someone with a pulse...

    Nathan cleverly, kicked the living **** out of Murat a guy Hopkins had trouble with, kovalev destroyed him in 4

    Campillo-lots a good results, beat Hopkins last opponent and just beat Thomas Williams jr in his last fight, destroyed in 3 be kovalev
    Silakh too amatuer and a top prospect knock senseless by kovalev in 2

    Say just for arguments sake Kovalev KO's Bernard. Will you give him his just dues or will you just claim Hopkins got that bit too old?
