***Lebedev-Jones / Groves-DeGale / Pascal-Hopkins RBR Extravaganza***

The man is pure class.

Bernard Hopkins should be a inspiration to all young fighters and tbh athlete's in general. What a fighter!

 

Dan Rafael is a fat ****

 

I've dialled 999 coz I just burst a blood vessel

 

No Jean no part 3's. You got beaten like most felt you would.

 

This is a brilliant interview from Hopkins

 

Dan Rafeal....arh can't even be bothered cussing the guy...

 

Hopkins :happy

 

Yep, Fat Dan had it a draw

 

Staying up till an ungodly hour is worth it when watching a godly fighter.

 

Was Lampley getting teary eyed at the end with his closing speech?

 

Seemed like that to me as well.

Anyway, 'night' fellas. Need to get some sleep, it's being a great night of boxing :good

 

I don't have a father to share this with. But i hope you guys show this fight to your Pops..im lost for words.
peace out.

 

Fully agrees!!!
:happy:happy:happy

 

The guy is 46, how embarrassing for the young folk.

I honestly feel very embarrassed for them. 46!!

Christ, boxing is in a right state!!

 

BHop is a ****ing legend. And should be an inspiration to everyone whether they like boxing or not. Unbeleivable what this guy has achieved. Jack Nicalaus acheivement is not even close to this.

What BHop has done and his background and his achievements, should be shown to every indiciplined child out there as a shining example. And not everyone has it in their DNA. But at least it would teach kids the importance of discipline and will to succeed.

In this world you got guys with unbeleivable talent, like RJJ and James Toney and Calzaghe, but BHOP tops them all IMO. Toney never had dicipline to stay in good shape, like a prime athlete to complement his natural skills... RJJ had amazing natural abilities but once they faded...he faded....and in a ****ed up way, it was ironic today we witnessed one legend almost dying in the ring and another doing push ups between rounds to embaress his opponent.

BHOp has had longevity because of his dicippline and amazing will to compete at the highest level. And he has come through things in life which were difficult in life yet he has a success story, especially relitivly speaking and comparing him to his contempories....like he said, he's not busted up and he's not broke and his healthy... And also he's the "OG"


PS. Would also like to give props to Pascal for being a gentleman in defeat. This is what boxing should be about, pascal is class in defeat as he showed against Froch. Bhop was class too, and from an amazing face off with kellerman to the post fight interviews, this is a great advert for boxing.
