Legend of the Executioner, Bernard Hopkins

[HenchMc]

TO THE JOE CALFAGGE FAGS.....GO ASK HIS OWN DAD WHO WON AND WHO SHOWED THE CLASS IN THE RING BCOS IT WASNT JOE.

[nunka78]

U Hopkins fans are full of shit, all he's big fights the opponents have to move up to light heavy. And by the way he got beat by a White man fucking racist cock sucking pussy.. Lol Joe got put on he's ass got up and showed him how to box.. Thing is you YouTube picks don't know shit about boxing it not just about knockdowns it's about punches landed

[1cwa]

@nunka78 lean punches right? hopkins landed all of those its not the amatuers slaps dont count the same as hard punches

[nunka78]

@1cwa to say a man who has ko,d men that would fart and blow you away "slaps" is dumb. come back when you have been world champ for 11 years

[1cwa]

@nunka78 knocked out bums

[nunka78]

@1cwa  usa usa usa usa usa usa usa usa usa usa

[Jonezaay]

@nunka78 your calling bernard a pussy he's been a professional boxer for like over 20 years and holds the record for the most succesive middleweight title defences, became the oldest world champion in history at 46 and your sat on your computer calling him a pussy? your the pussy lmao get outside and do something useful with your life

[bratznextopmodelover]

bernard hopkins is the grastest fighter since marvin hagler and sugar ray robbison you know why beacuse he beat carlos mozon recored first man to beat tito , kelly ,oscar, tarver, pascal and the oldest fighter ever ya thats why he is philly great

[bratznextopmodelover]

@bratznextopmodelover

[retart256]

Hopkins is one of the best fighters ever in the world, and to fight for so many years at the top level his one of a kind, calzaghe is a joke he slaps and hopkins got robbed in that fight, THE Legend lives on bernard

[fhab525]

hopkins called calzaghe out of retirement for a rematch, Joe turned to cocaine as an excuse to remain safe....that tells u who won that fight

[Lieven29]

C'mon people, show a little respect for Joe Calzaghe. He won the fight fair and square.

[fhab525]

@Lieven29 fair and square ? no he didnt.... he received a well packaged gift thats all.. . every meaningful punch landed in that fight was from bhop, those compubox numbers cant fool nobody, no way in hell calzaghe landed that many punches, wanna know why, cuz i seen the fight like 5 times and hopkins is barely hit in that fight, unless u count blows that hit shoulders and elbows

[Lieven29]

@fhab525

Dude, are you serious? Read my other comments please.

I don't give a crap who won that fight, it's in the past so don't be a bitch and let it go.

[Lieven29]

F*CK YOU DUDE! HOPKINS WON WAAAAAA!

[Lieven29]

Oh man, you're such a bad loser and a Hopkins-fan, Calzaghe won and beat Hopkins!

[Lieven29]

Dude! You don't know anything about boxing! Hopkins won that fight! 

[Lieven29]

Calzaghe won!

[Lieven29]

Oh C'mon man, I've watched the fight 10 times on mute and Hopkins beat Calzaghe!

[Lieven29]

No man, Calzaghe beat Hopkins!

[Lieven29]

Hopkins beat Calzaghe!

[xunorma]

HOOOPKINSSS THEEEE EXEECUUTIONEER!!!!!!

[SoJuDaMaN]

Let's not talk about who is great and who's not. I think Hopkins, Jones and Calzaghe are all all-time greats.

To me, Hopkins has the most impressive legacy of those three fighters, though. He has been in the sport for so long and yet, he can still do things that nobody else can. Remember how people thought Trinidad would destroy him and he completely schooled him and knocked him out? Remember when people thought he should quit for good and then he came bock to easily dominate Tarver ?

[TheSpookyPilot]

i still believe Hopkins won Calzeghe it was a close fight but i myslef believe Hopkins won

[cait1208]

If Hopkins is a legend, than that makes Calzaghe a greater legend. Calzaghe came over from England and beat Hopkins in his own backyard. Make no mistake about it, Calzaghe won that fight. The one judge who voted for Hopkins was an American who clearly was biased in her decision. Even she only had Hopkins winning by one round. The other judges had Calzaghe winnihg by three rounds. Calzaghe clearly won the fight and deserves the props for coming all the way to the US and beating BHop.

[jonathan2002ga]

@cait1208 Yeah Yeah Yeah. I don't know what is about people not respecting Hopkins. You do realize that one the reasons why Hopkins is a legend is because he had 20 consecutive defenses?

Also, I would love to see Calzaghe fight light heavyweight Chad Dawson. That would be a great match up.

[jonathan2002ga]

Hey,

What is the tune playing before Hello Zepp starts? I ask because I don't hear when I listen to other versions of Hello Zepp on here. Anyway, I love the tune, Thanks.

[LeftHandedBoxingFan]

@jonathan2002

Tubular Bells.

[jonathan2002ga]

Thank you sir!

[LeftHandedBoxingFan]

no problem:)

[hari2012]

hopkins mainly fought smaller guys because he kept himself in great shape to get down to those weights for a naturally taller guy. dont knock him for fighting smaller guys to give him an advantage

[jonathan2002ga]

Bernard Hopkins just has the skill and toughness you can't coach. That's what makes him a legend.

[stuartbango1987]

why is everyone on youtube retarted cant give people there credit hopkins is a legend and so is calzaghe it is possible to admire both, so what if de la hoya trinidad are smaller the excuses people come up with these people are the guys you wanted them to fight and people discredit calzaghes win against lacy but everyone before was saying if he wins against him its a career defining fight and he was a big underdog even in britain

[Cowardzaghe]

Calzaghe a legend!!! looooool!!

What for fighting FAST FOOD WORKERS??

Both De La Hoya and Trinidad are Multiple Weight Champions and Hall Of Fame fighters. Both held Middleweight Titles when Hopkins fought them, Jeff Lacy wouldn't even make it to the HALL OF SHAME!

Great LEGACY Mr Calzaghe!

I do agree that Hopkins is becoming a CHERRY PICKER for fighting BUMS which says a lot for Calzaghe considering Hopkins will happily fight and rematch calzaghe but won't go near dawson!

Calzaghe = A BUM!

[olwe666]

@stuartbango1987 calzaghe a legend??????????? u are kidding right?

[bretchet23]

the fucking man

[ajja18]

he wasn't the same against roy jones

[primeraprim]

joe slappy he himself knows he not the best 10yrs from now historians will be saying the same thing. whats sad is that the fights he feels were big fight against the big names meant nothing, because those guys in there primes would have embarrassed joe. come guys lets all be really honest here..do anyone of you truly believe slappy would have beat Roy Jones Jr or hopkins in there prime?lets stop the foolish talk please

[gerald9023]

who did hopkins beat then? an old small dlh? an old small trinidad? a smaller pavlik?

[gerald9023]

what about an old small winky wright? can hopkins even beat a guy who isn't coming up in weight? plus he got whooped by a naturally smaller roy jones and jermain taylor

[SoJuDaMaN]

shut the fuck up, you know nothing about boxing

[bchacks]

bhop is no doubt a legend but he is boring as drama

[boxingrapandrnb]

whats the 2nd song please

[tacoandbeer]

B-Hop is a legend. I dont like him but hes a legend. Theres no doubt about that. Calzaghe on the other hand, Well.......Does beating old men and bums make you a legend?

[sonofthedestroyer]

Does beating old men and bums make you a legend?

------------------------------­------------

Calzaghe was afraid to have even a rematch with the old man Hopkins. Dont worry about what his fans say. Watch Calzaghe movement in the ring. He is slightly above mediocre

[tacoandbeer]

I agree. Another mediocre boxer who cherry picked his opponents to remain undefeated.

Calzaghe is no better than Brian Nielsen, Sven Ottke, Faruq Saleem or Ike Ibeabuchi

[sonofthedestroyer]

Shakira says 'hips dont lie'

I say the eyes dont lie. We know mediocre when we see it

[tacoandbeer]

Hahaha

I like that one.

[hopkinsbeatcalzaghe]

Correction. Cowzaghe is an undefeated, fighter of geritol drinkers, cherry picking sheep fucker.

[hopkinsbeatcalzaghe]

Bernard Hopkins SCHOOLED AND HUMILIATED JOKE SLAPZAGHE. X-X-X-X MAAAAAAAAN, X-X-X MAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[faltagh]

You are a joke. White boy won. Black boy quit. Done.

[primeraprim]

In slappys fight with Hopkins, slappy was knocked down in the first round and tagged often by Hopkins. It sure looked like Hopkins won. He ended up losing by a 12-round split decision, but I had Bernard winning easily by two to three rounds based on the more effective punching.

While Hopkins was drilling slappy all night with hard right hands, slappy could only fire back with a lot of slaps. slappy could have helped make himself a star giving Hopkins a rematch, but he didnt. I wonder why?

[voodoo9606]

@hopkinsbeatcalzaghe im with you. but joe won. just 1 of those things, what can you say. what was joe 50 and 0. and he never said he was good. just said i want my mom to be happy... all fighters. thougfht they were going to beat joe. and joe could be a ko artist. but it wasnt in his best interest to fight bernard that way. so he pulled a great performance and slapped his way to victory. even roy jones felt the power, which bernard didnt. bernard was not one to play games with..

[jaxxcapone]

good video he was the executioner now he the governor because he lets people off the hook hes too defensive in his later years thats why he lost to calzaghe and taylor because he didnt do much against pavlik and tarver they are over hyped

[KHLB516]

Damn he really DId Destroy Pavlik that was hilarious and down right embarrasing......BHOP FAv of all time ONe of the Greats

[Showerofjyzz]

I didnt like the quality, but good video and music choice. B-hop is a badass

[jimhoffa82]

hopkins is a great fighter calzage dint want another fight cus the hopkins fight was the toughest fight calzage had.

[SmackNcrack01]

As far as I'm concerned, and as far as the history books will show, Hopkins will be ranked higher than Jones.

[ZIKEHTV]

ur an idiot! Roy jones is the second man in history to have been champion from middleweight all the way to heavyweight in over a 100 year. So how on earth would Hopkins be higher???

[SmackNcrack01]

One word...LONGEVITY! dnt call me an idiot bcoz i av a different opinion than u! U aint the fuckin POPE! Jerk!!!

[FreshTiDef]

@ZIKEHTV , a record holding 20 Consecutive SUCCESSFUL Title Defenses of a weight class of LEGENDS (middleweight), KO'd prime Tito (the only man to KO Tito), the only man to KO a PRIME Oscar, KO'd a prime Glen Johnson (who KO'd Roy), beat Tarver easily (who beat Roy twice), beat Winky (at the time who haven't lost in a decade), beat a Pavlik easily, & never been KO'd (Jones been 3 times). That's how he's higher than Jones! Men lie, Woman lie, but RESUMES don't!

[MexicanSlugger31]

Hopkins will always be the greater fighter, Jones is just more popular. Bhop is on another level than Jones.

[SmackNcrack01]

YEAH!!! Viva Mexico!!!!!

[rudziu102]

bhop is on another lvl that what jones ?

if you say about roy jones :>

he win without a problem against hopkins:!

even hopkins say that roy jones is only person who realy win against him!

btw yes hopikns is a legend

[samuksam]

HOPKINS SCHOOLED CALZAGHE

[strkx1]

Y talk about racisim. This was just a tribute to a ring legend in Bernard Hopkins.

[ace9846]

dont care wat anybody says bernard skoold calzaghe

[voodoo9606]

@ace9846 .. ive had 6 people respond to me. each said a brutal 12 round. hagler win... ur opinion... in a 12 round fight. both in thier prime. both feeling on top of the world that night.. hagler hopkins.. who wins. and why.. thankyou

[citylifetimes]

wow that would have been a super fight, but i would have to say bhop would win in the long run due to a decision

[worldserieschamps19]

How can people call Bernard a racist? Freddie Roach whom is white was his trainer for the Calzaghe fight.

[joshyooare]

"I would never let a WHITE boy beat me". Thats why, because he said that. Ironic really, cos he lost :D

[worldserieschamps19]

That does not mean he's a racist though. You can't accuse someone of being a racist that's just wrong.

[joshyooare]

Maybe hes not TOTALLY racist, but he implyd the old "white guys cant fight" here, implying "I'd never lose to a white guy cos theyre crap". THAT is racist. He may have Freddie Roach as a trainer, but most people are "slightly" racist. B-Hop is for defo in my opinion.

[stuartbango1987]

hopkins is not racist...its boxing if a comment gets under someone skin then a boxer is going to say it...thankfully joe is pretty smart guy and didnt let it get to him..it was a competitive fight anyone who thinks both fighters arent great are a bit stupid

[worldserieschamps19]

I never called Hopkins a racist, why would i assume that? besides if Hopkins was a racist then freddie roach wouldnt have been his trainer for the calzaghe fight.

[stuartbango1987]

sorry didnt mean to reply to you

[bobsinno]

Calzaghe is a bum. I didn't know that beating Taxi Drivers and Milkmen makes you "great"

What made Joe Cowardzaghe "great" exactly?

Great at being a coward that's all!

[englishjames007]

Im relation to a comment I recieved about, Hopkins and his attitude, towards fellow white people like myself,...... he had no option but to fight under a light-skinned man, HE'S A racist twat, and I'll never5 forgive the arrogance..... ever!!! time has moved on to the fact a white man is treading on fucking eggshells. ( 20 years) so fuck your race card and injustices..... what about the whites in Spain when the moors/ muslims conquered??...

[QAEntertainment]

oh yah so people are racist towards now, what happens to all the whites hating on browns and blacks? nuf said sdfu you stupid brit go eat a english muffin.

[SmackNcrack01]

Dnt b insultin the Brits! I wnt insult the yanks coz my opinion might differ every now and again

[youtubin805]

the vids pretty good its just the song its gay

[QAEntertainment]

Joe Fagalaghe

[englishjames007]

JOE WIN YOUR ASS CALZAGHE HAS MORE OF A RING TO IT.... BUT TRY IT OUT IN FRONT OF THE MIRROR FIRST ( ASK YOUR MUM FIRST) ok???  DICK!

[Angel797]

the coward spagetti joe dont want to give b-hop a rematch

[englishjames007]

Why???..... popkins is a fucking twat "I won't let any white boy beat me" well, he did....P.S. carl froch will knock him out aswell..... should be good viewing

[KHLB516]

all promotion BHOp is no racist. watch BHOP behind the glory one of the guys he considers a father figure is a white dude

[xiJIGGAxiSODMG]

fuck all u bernard hopkins is the biggest muthafukkin legend fuk yall fuk joe calzaghe fuk roy jones jnr n fuk jermaine taylor hopkins beat all these n oh yeah fuk them bastard judges who scored joe calzaghe as winner i mean joe calzaghe is a pussy omg y duznt he giv b-hop or kessler rematchz i think that hints suttin that he fixes his fights n gives no rematches what a pussy he gives boxing a bad name i mean look at sugar ray n duran legends they fought 3 times stop hiding behind retirement jc

[r3Ghost]

Fixes his fights? What the fuck are you on? Calzaghe has a perfect record and some have been easy and some have been a challenge, but he has won them all. You really need to get a clue about boxing mate, you're an ass.

[tmotleygoldstein]

if you think calzaghe is a better boxer than hopkins you're the one who needs to get a clue.

[advent8888888888]

hopkins is a legend but calzaghe can outbox anyone, hopkins was too negative and thats the reason why he lost.

[tmotleygoldstein]

so hopkins would have won if he wasn't so negative? meaning calzaghe can't outbox anyone? Make up your mind.

[advent8888888888]

yer he was too negative, calzaghe was the agressor and was setting the pace, he can outbox anyone, he adapted to hokins in the later rounds and all hopkins did was throw a right hand then clinch, what i mean by negative is that he was trying to spoil calzaghe and he couldnt keep up with joes work rate.

[englishjames007]

well said....

[englishjames007]

Ohh my god, someone has highlighted the paradox!!!! thanks mate

[slvrstnthb]

btw shane mosley can defiantly beat calzage or whatever his name is. race is irrelevant skill is why bottom line.

[martin0792]

Bernard Hopkins beat Joe Calzaghe !

[pookin76]

bollocks...he tried to get fight stopped as he didnt want to carry on...lol...the pussy :)

[pookin76]

joe beat hopkins cos he's a white boy, he'd never lose to a little black boy beat him lmao

[slvrstnthb]

racist grow up haha.

[pookin76]

lol, me the racist ? fucking hopkins live on the news slagging off white guys like a mug. every white guys in the world shud just pound the fuck out of his fuckin face for what he said, im just giving back his own medicine, Dont say it n people wont say it about u. i never slag black people off but he can go fuck himself. i did like hopkins, but now he's just a dirty nigger, fuck him and his family :)

[slvrstnthb]

what exactly did he say word for word? Probably not as bad as what u just said. Relax guy and saying that makes u racist lol.

[pookin76]

lol he said he would never let a white boy beat him....the fucking fibber lol like he sum superior black man ???? i think not :)

[slvrstnthb]

well first that gives u no right to use a racial slur.

[pookin76]

fucking hell, we cant even call a black board a black board anymore here in england, its now called a white board ??? wots that all about ??? he's famous n spreading bad vibes, damn sight more than i am, fuck him :)

[slvrstnthb]

relax. and yeah that is lame about the boards.

[wannabegunslinger]

I don't know. I watched that fight, and Calzaghe definitely didn't "beat" Hopkins. He squeaked out a victory, nothing more.

[MFW412]

Hopkins wasn't too badly hurt. He was outlanded, taunted, and he didn't know where he was in between rounds, he couldn't find his corner. Hopkins avoided making it a fight and didn't throw. Calzaghe beat him cleanly enough.

[aldointerstellar]

B Hop was so masterful that no one was really able to outbox him just outwork him. Taylor, Calzaghe and even Jones only threw more punches than him. They didnt outbox him.

[pookin76]

lol dickhead

[stuartbango1987]

Great vid...hopkins beat taylor twice...calzaghe just edged him...great fighter though

[bhopdaman]

My card

Hopkins-Taylor1:116:112 Hopkins

Hopkins-Taylor2:115:113 Hopkins

Hopkins-Calzaghe:114:113 Hopkins

Hopkins-Pavlik:120:105 Hopkins

[arielito1]

imagine what a 36 yr old Hopkins wouldv done to Calzaghe

[RichCwm]

Yeah right, so Hopkins is basically undefeated in your own twisted mind.

[laggardz]

I'm a BHop fan but I think the Calzaghe moaning has to stop. It was a scrappy fight but anyone who thinks Hopkins won and still goes on about it after rewatching the fight needs to find a different sport. Hopkins lost that fight fair and square and then whooped Pavlik fair and square.

[borges773]

Hopkins is a beast! He is his 40's and still fighting!?!?!? Wow, other fighters retire before they hit that age. He must have a hreat body to keep going. And he won against Calzaghe, the judges are full of shit.

[SoJuDaMaN]

I scored it this way:

Hopkins - Taylor I : 113:115 Taylor

Hopkins - Taylor II: 115:113 Hopkins

Hopkins Calzaghe: 114-113 Hopkins (the knockdown made the difference on my scorecard)

[theCMflow]

"Legend of the Executioner", or "Legend of the Exorcist"???

[THISISLolesh]

lol

[BoxingAnalyst08]

A very SPECIAL fighter.

[mrPR2490]
