Hopkins - Does he have any TRUE fans?

[Fenster]

Remember originally Hopkins wanted the fight in Yankee Stadium.. but that idea was quicky killed.. I guess we now know why

Hopkins does have his share of fans. That's why we had all this controversy with the Nard-Taylor decisions when in fact there shouldn't be any as Nard ran the whole two nights long.

Although I am a big Hopkins fan, I can see why he has such a small fan base. His style, as masterful as it is, just isn't crowd pleasing. Plus, I think he has hurt himself with the dispicable ways he choses to hype a fight. I think people can easily see through these acts and it just makes him look foolish.

Although I don't think he deserves all the blame. Maybe Joe Calzaghe isn't generating as much interest in the states as they figured he would.

Either way, this fight should have happened in Europe. Oh well, hindsight is 20/20

Hopkins has fans but their are not hardcore fans that are willing to travel and pay the money to see him.

Add that to Joes super stardome here in the states and you've got the results...

Im a huge B-Hop fan and if I could afford to go i would. But I think people know that they arent likely gonna see a war. Hop relies on his smarts and craftiness, even more now that hes older. Hes rarely in a fight of the year type fight, though i like to watch him .
