Graterford is practically a death sentence, they send you up there,youve seriously screwed up your life.
Hell,you dont want to find yourself in the Roundhouse,your down in Graterford,your done
Well, Hopkins got out anyway.
Thats one of the things I respect about him,most guys treat a sentence like that as an excuse to become an even worse person then the one that got sentenced in the first place.
Not him,he became a vegetarian,a family man,and the most notorious gym rat thats ever lived. He brushed himself off,and became way more then most people ever strive for.

No, not in those. He just won those. One, by humiliating Duran and making him quit; the other, by coming back after years off and beating an ATG by outsmarting him with a superior fight plan for which Hagler had no backup plan..

Yes, that is worthy of the highest respect. Thing is, he walks the walk.
