Hopkins out for revenge

This should be good. An aging (but still great) star, against the man who "robbed him" of his title. The front two rows will be splattered, and I personally can't wait.

Well, it's primal, and that's what I like. There's no way out of it, right there in boxing, it's just two men against each other, with the aim of hurting each other to such an extent that the other cannot continue. Hopkins was great, easily the best in his weightclass, but he's a bit old, and I'm curious to see how he'll make it.

For half a second there I thought it was about Anthony Hopkins, not Bernard Hopkins.

Do you know how to fight? If so, what style?

Do you know how to fight? If so, what style? [/QUOTE]If you mean like boxing, not really.I know the stances, how to punch the right way, and a few ways to block but i'm no expert. But i've taken a few martial arts classes, and I wrestle. As far as fight style, I just use whatever it takes really. I like to use my weight and arms a lot. Usually I just grab the person by the face, throw them to the floor and keep punching them until they've had enough.

LOL, are you serious? Who stands there long enough to let someone grab their face and throw them to the ground?

If you're that quick, good for you bro!

In all of my MA exp., I don't think I could ever do that to someone, unless they were either totally unprepared for an attack, or had no idea how to fight.
