    The 3 worst fights I’ve ever seen:

    This one.

    Calzaghe-Hopkins.

    Reid-Ottke.

    The tough guy from Philly.

    Fighting Roy after saying that he was shot, then instigating fouls, but then rolling around and crying on the floor, after Roy had retaliated.

    Shameful.

    Cringeworthy.

    Hopkins was a disgrace, highly overrated. He should have had points deducted for his acting job. This is also how we got away with quitting in the Dawson fight and it ended up a NC because of an alleged injured shoulder that he insisted was caused by Dawson pushing him.
