I went for any Of the Ali Frazier fights,because they were just wars. But if you went for which fight do I go to watch when Im in a crappy mood,Ive watched Hopkins-Trinidad more times then I can count,but thats just self gratification, even though nobody gave him an iota of a chance to win,Bernard takes Tito to school,I watch that even more then what he did to Tarver,I allmost feel bad for Tarver in that fight because you can see it in his eyes,he's totally lost in there. Trinidad is more gratifying probably because of all the BS you hear out of Trinidad's corner and from Foreman all throughout the fight.
I did Trainer - so much so that I plunked down $50 at 7 to 1 for the KO... After round 10 I thought Tito would go the distance, but Bernard stepped it up and man was I happy when I saw Tito's old man waving the towel.
That was '01 and I remember they had to postpone it coz of 9/11. And THEN a few weeks later, I cleaned up on Tszyu KO'ing Judah.
I was on a purple patch...

I never bet on anything,ever.Its one of my rules in life. But jesus if I could have broken it for just one night,that would have been the night. Good on ya, I bet you like that fight even more then I do

Probably
I've never been a huge Hopkins fan - but if you are a boxing fan you MUST respect him, and that fight was his crowning achievement. DLH showed the keys to beating Tito, but Bernard just defused EVERYTHING in his arsenal and Tito was never Tito again.
