bernard hopkins. started boxing as a young teen. was a golden gloves amateur champ. went to prison. boxed in prison. came out of prison turned pro. still fighting at 48

where was the late start or break?

And how often does that happen. We're talking averages here, the majority, not freaks of nature. Men degrade. Anderson has been fighting the best of the best for a long time. Hopkins has been coasting through his golden years fighting bums. Put anderson in a lesser organization and watch him dominate but people will say

*but hes fighting bums*

I don't want to see Anderson become Roy Jones status

I don't either. That's my fear. Even before the first Weidman fight, I thought it was Weidman's fight. I just thought it would go down differently. Ever since I saw Weidman vs Andre Galvao at the Abu Dhabi in 2009...something about Weidman being a purple belt and almost strangling the current arguable best pound for pound grappler on the planet. He's way more of a phenom than he gets credit for.

But yeah. I would love to see Silva come back and rock Weidman, I'm just scared about Silva's wrestling. I still think Silva easily takes 99% of 185. I would like to see Silva/Jacare.

after I saw that fight I told my boy whos a HUGE anderson fan, that Weidman may be up there with him in a few, and he had no idea who weidman was and laughed it off.....Something about the dude just seemed like he had "it". I think at this stage, Weidman is too well rounded to lose to silva, but anything can happen any given night. Silvas the GOAT, but its someone elses time now, IMO.

Roy still wants to fight him in a boxing match lol

 

[O.T.I.S.]

Looking good Silva. Good luck to him

 

[joeychizzle]

God already told anderson that its time to retire but he didnt heed the message and now, i suspect he'll be made humble again. Weidman already had him unconscious in their second fight. He should really get out of there. This is a young mans game and hes to past his prime, friend.

God told him to retire? I'm not religious, and I don't bash religion, but what does God have to do with a knockout and snapped shinbone? Unless you're trying to say God knocked him the fukk out.

Saying that God favoured one fighter over the other doesn't sound right.. all should be equally favoured.

 

[Amare's Right Hook]

He'll get beat up, mentally he won't be the same not at this stage. He already looked shook in the 2nd fight.

 

[Super Cheech]

That's my GOAT
