    lets face the guy is a living legend, probably has the leading boxing IQ of any active boxer.

    he proves us wrong time and time again, and i honestly don't care who he chooses to fight next, i am gonna back him to upset the odds yet again.

    be it cloud, dawson, bute, pascal or even wladimir fukin klitschko.

    never again will i suggest hopkins is too old to win.

    who else is onboard?

    I got a nice payout betting on a draw! :good
    I bet against B-Hop in a heartbeat, if the opponent is good enough.

    betting on draws will have paid out good recently! mosley mora, hopkins pascal, ortiz peterson.

    nah i'm not betting against him till he hangs his gloves up now.

    I would bet against hopkins vs dawson and haye if that ever happened but the rest of them I take hopkins by decision.

    He has his limitations though. He will always struggle against busier, faster fighters but as long as he keeps selecting his own opponents, he won't lose. Pavlik, Tarver, Pascal, Jones etc., were all winnable fights for him.

    what a testament to this man. at the age of 46, we view "the likes" of pavlik, tarver and pascal as winnable.

    i am firmly of the belief hopkins is the best boxer of this past 20 years

    Was it you who made thread about how betting on draw would be good idea in Pascal vs. Hopkins fight?
    Got me thinking and i finally decided to but little money on it.

    If so thanks :good, I just hope I had but more than 10€ in it.

    I'm a bit concerned that the old man got caught off balance and put on his ass by a shot he did not see coming. That was not very "BHop-like," but I still don't see myself betting against him anytime soon.

    it has been a while since he fought such a "lunging" style. jones was shot, calzaghe was a volume fighter, tarver was a counter puncher and pavlik was quite an orthodox textbook boxer puncher. you would have to go back years to find the last time nard laced up with someone who lunges at him.
