May we all rise and roar for Bernard Hopkins

[ARon]

Man, this guy is amazing. What he did to Tarver tonight is something most boxers do to their sparring partner. He controlled every single second of this fight and made Tarver look completely lost. He said this is probably his last fight and if so what a way to go out, dominant, just like his career. Seriously, this was one of the most lopsided fights I've seen, Tarver is no joke too. Bernard should go down as one of the greats. What a career and what a fight, who else watched it.

Respect to Bernard, awesome acheivements in his career. He beat Tarver in great style revealing what most boxing fans knew in the first place, Antonio was not the great fighter he believed he was. Maybe now he will stop deluding himself of his value and actually fight the other champs at light heavy, i honestly believe even Clinton woods could beat him. Tarver beat a faded Roy Jones, barely beat an old Glen Johnson and i bet he loses to Sly in the new Rocky film too, i am glad he has been exposed. As for Hopkins i respect his decision to retire and what a way to bow out.The only fight i would want to see him stick around for would be Calzaghe, A fight that should have happened years ago but would still be benificial for boxing, unfortunatly if he wants to retire on a high something tells me he will not be interested in a fight with Joe

Yeay nuff respect to BH, he's been a great fighter for a very long time! I cant remember him ever being in a great fight though.

^Most of the time it isn't the case but with B-Hop it is, he is just that dominant. Proably one of the toughest fighters to go against, his defense, the way he moves ability to counter and then attack. I love watchin him in the ring. Some of his comp may have not been the greatest but to do what he did for that long, gots to give him props.

By the way, sorry about ruining it for you. That would piss me off.
