    Hopkins is a dipshit. No one pays attention to him because his fights are all a snoozefest and he fights dirtier than just about anyone out there. It has nothing to do with his race. Has he not heard of Ali, Frazier, Tyson, Foreman, Mayweather...none of those guys have a problem getting coverage and last time I checked, they are the same race as Hopkins. I hope Kovalev destroys that old man and puts him out to pasture.

    Hopkins is a clown and is one of the most uneducated human beings in sports, but fuck no I'm not cheering for a Russian over him.

    Here's hoping none of us ever have to listen to Roy Jones ludacris defense of Bernard Hopkins ever again. That fight tonight was a joke and so was those 3 clowns on HBO's commentary. Kovalex absolutely destroyed that old man. Here's hoping he does the same thing to Adonis Stevenson next.

    Yessir. Can't wait for tonight's brawl. Rubber match. Can't fucking wait

    Jennings gets a shot at the champ. So pumped. He has no shot but he got him to come to the states. I will 100% be in attendance. Wonder if I could convince the wife to let me go to NYC for the Jennings fight then Vegas or Dallas for the potential Pac/Floyd fight (yeah, right)

    Why, is this Manny guy any good? Sorry, don't follow boxing, but I may watch this fight. I want to see someone knock Floyd out.

    Manny is good. Floyd was scared to fight him in his prime. Manny got knocked out but looks to be back. Floyd May have lost a step. Not often I don't root for an American fighter but I really want to see manny win. Do not want Floyd to end with that 0.

    That said, manny has to go after him. Floyd is going to run like he always does. I expect Floyd to win a boring fight but would not be surprised if manny can pull it off.

    Better have some good judges. Floyd fighting in his hometown

    My wife is going to the Derby for a bachelorette party. Which means that weekend will pretty much turn into a bachelor party for myself. Great timing.

    Word is that PPV is gonna cost $100. I would happily pay $100 if it includes a time machine that goes back 5 years and tapes them fighting then.

    I'm getting together with some friends and I can't wait for this fight.

    Kentucky Derby and then the fight.

    Not a bad day.

    Odds are good that most of you won't remember watching the fight!
