His inactivity is based on his cherry picking:
He wanted Ademek to fight for him for free, and because Ademek's style would be very easy for him to manipulate.
Chad Dawson has loomed for 2 years as the guy at 175, and B-hop will barely acknowledge him.
Right now--as of today--AT THIS POINT--currently, Bernard Hopkins is cherry picking money fights...
and Hell, after taking all those fights in 04-08, maybe he's entitled.
i wouldn't necessarily call it cherry picking, cause aside from his December tune up fight, he's still fighting top world class opposition at nearly 45 yrs old, he's cashing out for sure, but at least he's not pulling a James Toney and fighting bums and just getting by on his name alone
James Toney.
if nobody ever said his or Ruiz's name on here ever again, it'd be too soon.
Is Roy Jones Jr. World Class still a world class fighter? Or just somebody else who won't fight Dawson.
