    Default I can't get excited for Hop

    Yeah I know he's a physical specimen and he has beaten the champion of champions aka Father Time, but his name on a fight card doesn't bring the same emotion as most top guys bring. I'm more excited about malignaggi-porter.

    I agree. I never really liked Bhop but I respect his abilities and longevity. I'll watch him whenever he fights as it is quite remarkable what he is doing but I am also more excited about seeing Paulie

    He's an accomplished guy but he's boring as hell.

    Hotmail put out a warning earlier this week to not open strange emails with attachments this weekend, because it might be someone sending you a Bhop fight heheheh

    Nobody looks good against him even when they beat him,! crafty dirty, you name it he will use
    it you watch him blind side of the ref, he's a master on getting the ref on his side.
    Tough SOB the guy is a nightmare to fight, boring as hell to watch.

    The only fascination now is if B Hop will show his age and lose.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I don't wish anything bad for Hopkins, but I sure as hell don't wish him anything good either.

    I agree with what a few have already said - respect to Hopkins for what he's achieved but have never liked watching him fight.

    Apart from De La Hoya I can't even remember seeing him knock anyone out ?!? And that was a winding body shot rather than full on KO

    Fair play to him though
    Don't bully fat kids - they've got enough on their plate
