The shark spit bucket Why Bernard Hopkins should retire By me the shark If your favorite fighter _______ losses a fight he was either out smarted or out worked or out skilled. Shit he only 19-34 years old. Thats just the way it goes, well he can be matched wrong to dont help. Now when a 50yr old went two decades damm near undefeated tuff Philly fighter that got his Start in the penitentiary losses well thats a different loss. Bernard Hopkins has seen it all, done it all and dam sure know it all. Inside and outside the ring. For the last ten years Hopkins has out foxed his younger foes with skill, tactics and psychology. They get in there with a guy whom poster probably hung on they bedroom wall and got star struck into a loss by the Wiley coyote veteran. Well the side show is over. The train has been derailed and the fat lady sung in favor of the truth. The goliath Won. The younger, stronger and less experience guy prevailed with a former nassim Richards protege and Hopkins assistant in the young Russian bull corner. Hopkins was a fun fiction story mixed with some sci fi. But the non fiction section of the library put a end to the his-story of Hopkins run. The blue print is out the salty dog has been exposed. Like any elder sportsman he relies on tactics to keep going because the physicals just arent there anymore. I.e Michael Jordon relied on his jump shot vs dunking . Baseball greats move to the designated hitter spot . Football guys become that third down guy. . Boxers rely on the rope a dope let a young guy fatigue tactic. Well thats about all Hopkins got the rope a dope and oppenants can see that and just be patient and become victorious every time with Hopkins. Bernard .. you a first ballot hall of famer. Groom the next philly tuff guy and garden the sport into a field of dreams for the next generation.
