    I agree. After last night's performance...he'll be back.

    We're never getting rid of him

    Well if he fought like he did last night I don't think we'd want to see him retire. I didn't think he was still able to keep up a good workrate all throughout the fight. I guess we should just give up on trying to predict when bernard is done or anything of the sort, he's defied the odds far to often. Would love to see a rematch.

    It probably would have been had he got the decision he deserved.

    Hopkins strikes me as a fighter who will not quit and go out when he is good and ready. He has this attitude that thinks people are against him and he will not do what most people want him to do and retire.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Once again I will ask the forum: Hopkins vs Cloud who ya got?

    Tavoris Cloud has a title and with Pascal-Dawson II apparently next up why not make this fight?

    IMO if Cloud can handle Hopkins' style then he's one dangerous S.O.B....I see Cloud (if he is going to lose) losing to a boxer, but after what Dawson showed vs Pascal I don't think Bad Chad has it in him to keep Cloud at bay, Hopkins might as he's cagey in his old age.

    Tavoris Cloud as i've said time and time again is another Jeff Lacy, yes he may have more punch variety. But he only fights in spurts normally, and even an old Glen Johnson was able to outwork him in quite alot of rounds. B-Hop would embarrass Tavoris Cloud, as would Chad Dawson.

    Its good that you bring up Glen Johnson because right now I think he's better than Hopkins and I always wondered why a rematch between them wasn't made.

    The blueprint to beat BHop is set: win early rounds (1-5) then win 2 more late rounds and bingo bango mathematically BHop is out 7 rounds to 5.

    After seeing Pascal hurt BHop I have more hope for Cloud, but of course you guys think he's Jeff Lacy when he's obviously done more than Lacy ever has and vs better opponents too
