Official: HBO- Bernard Hopkins VS Joe Smith Jr. RBR Thread

[deathofaclown]

A few nice right hands by Bernard in that round.

[SN!PER]

Time for the Bernard headbutts

[jreckoning]

2-0 Joe.

BHop is doing better though and had Smith thinking and hesitating towards the end of the 2nd.

[Build That Wall]

20-18 Smith

Again. Better round for Bernard but even better for Smith. Bernard just looking pedestrian

[bigdunny1]

Heabutt might change this fight. Bad spot blood gon drip in that eye all fight.

[The Comic DON]

Looking for Smith to beat Hopkins tonight. Sorry old man but its best that the youngster wins for the sake of boxing. Out with the old in with the new as they say.

1-1 Thought Bernard landed the more telling shots of that last round

[j0zef]

Bernard starting to find his stride. As long as he doesn't tire out or get caught.. he has a chance.

1 - Smith
2 - Hop

[-Kev-]

B-hop is notorious for starting slow so don't put much stock into it. People are magnifying it due to his age. Remember slow start vs Pascal, Calzaghe and Dawson.

Edit:
I'm not watching btw, i'll watch later.
Just going by comments, seems like people forget Hopkins starts off "looking old" in most fights.

[BrometheusBob.]

2-1 Smith

Not a ton impressed me from either in that last round
