    Default Whats next for Hopkins besides retirement?

    I would say move up to cruiserweight steal a title from one of the champions and either retire or have a farewell fight in philly!

    I heard talk of a possible Shumenov fight but that was a couple of months ago.

    Judging from last night's showbox I'd say Bernard has a future in assuring fighters that they won when the got knocked down in the last round and were very lucky to get the decision

    Aside from that, I think Bernard will attempt to be the first man to ever win a world title at age 50...and I think he will do it. It won't be against a superstar, but I can see Bernard being crafty enough to snatch a belt from some European belt holder at Cruiser or light heavy.
    "You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"

    I would say frustrate Chavez to tears in the ring..... but Martinez is already going to KTFO him on Sept 15th.

    I hate to say goodbye to a living legend but he should make a graceful exit even though there's seldom anything graceful about B-Hop. I love his style and his ring intellegince can really be appreciated if you watch the fight again and again until it dawns on you all the subtle things he did earlier in the fight to tighten the noose over his opponents neck.

    It's sad that all my favourite fighters are old, well there's still Rigondeaux and here's hoping he's the next coming of Sweet Pete.

    You make him out to be entertaining, Hopkins you must have a blindfold on or you follow him on the radio, Sorry but he put the S into shit.
