Legend of the Executioner, Bernard Hopkins!

Same white boy that ran like a little girl after he spent 6 months calling out the kid BHop took to school.

 

BHop exposed Trinidad for the joke that he is. That was a systematic beatdown.

Hopkins is a boring fighter but when he is aggressive he is exciting to watch.

 

That's the best you could do? Dang, loving that old Bhop man all day long.

 

I swear, the way I read your thread, I think you are really Joe Calzaghe.

 

Yeah that would prob make at least an average boxer!

Bit of a thread in it self tho this, i wanna start making hearns with oliver mccall's chin or hagle with julian jackson power! Whats the best frankenstein boxer we could make?

 

Hearns with Mcall's chin would be against the law!

 

Actually I'm quite curious about whether or not BHop can carry his knowledge into the training arena. Imagine the team of Bernard Hopkins and Nazim Richardson training someone like Kessler, Pavlik, Williams; somebody who is already pretty good.

 

I agree they would make an awesome team, but I'm not so sure that Bernard is better at studying fighters than Nazim. In the countdown to Pavlik/Hopkins it was Hopkins who ask Richarson what they were going to do about Pavlik's right hand, not the other way around. Nazim, "We're gonna put it in the drawer with Tito's left hook."

I've watched Hopkins/Pavlik a few times now, and Bernard was brillaint at avoiding Pavlik's best two punches. The record says avoiding the right hand, AND that long left hook ain't easy. Hops moved to Kelly's left -- Kelly stepped left to throw the hook just like he should, but Bernard moved slick-and-quick back to Pav's right, AND slightly forward so he would be inside the effective range of KP's right. Hops moved left, then right and slightly foward multiple times. Being able to do that well enough to pitch a near shut out against KP is nothing short of brilliant.
