Bernard Hopkins background story is amazing. Went to jail and made a microwave with like a shoebox and tinfoil. Not always the strongest fighter but the smartest fighter. Split Decision seems sketchy, it's too bad Hopkins came in a flurry only at the hand.

or was it the EA Jinx? :lmao:

Man. A little late but MAN. OH MAN. Bernard Hopkins drops another one again. Dude is old. 41.

Jermain Taylor retained the world middleweight championship with another 12-round unanimous decision victory against Bernard Hopkins Saturday at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. The highly anticipated rematch occurred almost exactly the same as the previous encounter when Taylor (25-0, 17 KOs) wrestled the WBA, WBO, and IBF titles from Hopkins in July.

So u think there will be another rematch?

no rematch...Hopkins barely lost. If Hopkins were a little younger.
