    Lets be real here. We know BHop is accomplished, skilled, knows all the tricks in boxing. But he is f*king oooold. No way in hell he survives 12 rounds against a beast like KOvalev. I hope it won't be too brutal and BHop won't get brain damage in this one.

    I agree Kovolev should be able to beat a 50 yr old man. But Bernard is NOT your average 50 yr old. Don't write him off . Kovolev may just be about to get a hard lesson from Prof Hopkins

    War Hopkins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    With the proper referee, someone who'd let B-Hop hold excessively, fight dirty, take as much rests as he wants etc (kinda like Ward's referees or Floyd's referee from his last fight) I can see Hopkins going the distance

    heck, probably even winning via robbery

    But skills pay the bills, any skilled fighter can easily take the power away and outsmart a big puncher right????? No not this time. BHop doesn't have a chance lets be realistic.

    B-Hop can win this, even at the age of 50.

    Fake an injured shoulder during the fight. Save face. And get paid.

    I hope after the fight,this place goes crazy.old man proves us all wrong again.

    Kovalev fanboys will go quiet,some will say some lame excuses.Hopkins haters will say Kovalev was hypejob.

    But objective fans know,Hopkins made history and is without a doubt atleast top 15ATG.

    Kovalev is gonna be an early birthday present for B-Hop. No head movement, plods around the ring, predictable punching tendencies, he's Pavlik 2.0.

    I hope after the fight,this place goes crazy.old man gets beaten again.

    Hopkins fanboys will go quiet,some will say some lame excuses, hes old, hes 50 ffs.Kovalev haters will say hopkins is washed up.

    But objective fans know,Kovalev made history and is without a doubt atleast a top 10 LHW of all time, and the hardest lhw puncher of all time.

    And after all that i hope bernard is humble in defeat and he then goes into retirement. :deal

    Hopkins has seen it and done it. He's a master of his craft but the only way he wins would be due to foul play.

    I bet Hopkins knocks him down once and wins a UD 116-111

    I think B-Hop is getting stop. I wouldn't blame and nobody should if he fakes a way out of it. It would in a way be a reflection of his career anyway.
