Originally posted by EngorgedW/Blood View Postthe one that got me the happiest to be honest was against Kelly Pavlik. And reading the story about the kid who Hopkins became friends with, that had cancer? I believe? That made that gave the victory even more meaning to it. The kid kept himself alive just to watch one last Hopkins win, and Hopkins did it The kid went to sleep that night and never woke up again, he died 2-3 days later.
Because of what Hopkins did for that kid, and didn't make public to win the fans over, like let's say Pacquiao does. Becoming that kids best friend, and winning against all odds against the guy who was supposed to finally end Hopkins career and knock him out in to retirement.
I'd say Pavlik just because of that+the age he did it in+Pavlik being undefeated.

"I'm tired of proving myself".
One day, the media will appreciate Hopkins once he's long gone and they will make a movie on him.
Every one of his wins have been mostly discredited by the media, his Trinidad win, Trinidad too small. His Tarver win, Tarver was nothing special. His Pavlik win, Pavlik was a blown up MW. His Pascal win, Pascal is the worst champion ever, Hopkins wouldn't beat Moore or Hagler.
Why not say all of this before the fights? Why say he's gonna get knocked before the fight, then discredit him after he wins?
