As much as I'm rooting for Joe,we should all credit B Hop

[Bomp]

If he was deadset on being an exciting fighter he wouldn't even be here, he's 43 years old, he's not gonna be a volume puncher. That being said even as a longtime fan he's a bit hard to watch these days. But its still amazing what he does at his age.

He was a killer at one point, very exciting fighter, I've actually been watching some of his pre-Tito fights lately and he was ruthless. Its just a lot of people only took notice after Tito and hence think he's always been a boring fighter.

That's a fair point..

.. though for a guy in your position you really don't understand just how boring Hopkins is.. to appreciate his boringness you have to experience staying up till gone 4am everytime the old bastard fights. At that time of the morning watching someone throw as minimal amount of punches as possible and make fights as ugly as humanly possible tends to stifle the enjoyment factor

I can't get the Eastman fight out of my head

B Hop does deserve credit for fighting Joe, win lose or draw I believe he will call it a day after this fight.

Unlucky man, what medication are you on for that?

Although to be fair the old fossil can't be entirely to blame for that one.. Eastman can be as bad as Hopkins for sleep-inducing jobs.
