You at least have to give the guy props for fighting THE BEST out there.
We've seen guys take the easy way to titles all the time, Jermain didn't want any of that, yeah his Olympic performance did a lot to move his pro career along but when the challenges started coming he stepped up BIG TIME!
VS Hopkins many said he was too young and the old veteran would "beat him EASILY". For being YOUNG and inexperienced vs top competition he did great and has kept it up.
Give some props to a TRUE champion.
