All good things must end, this guy had quite a streak going. I've read the fight was pretty close, some called it a draw. Wish I could have seen it but couldn't justify the pay per view cost. :rolleyes:

From what I heard on various sports shows, Hopkins got screwed and really should have retained the belt with a draw. Did anyone see the fight?

I didn't see it, but I heard the same thing. Heard he almost knocked him out in the last round. I think HBO is replaying it soon, if you have HBO.

The best fight I've ever seen on HBO was when they replayed the fight between Antonio Tarver and Roy Jones, Jr.
When the referee asked if they had any questions, Tarver said, "Yeah, I got a question. You got any excuses this time Roy?" At that point I knew it would be a good fight.

That was a good fight Loftin, I'm a big boxing fan and when Tarver said that I was stunned, I'm sure Roy was too, he got humbled that day. Polish... I guess they are antiques, but they go so well with my 8 track tape player, nothing like the Grease soundtrack on 8 track tape, go one in my vehicle to, although it is the old model not a pull out. :) :D :p , j/k couldn't resist.
