• Perhaps
one of the most celebrated middleweight boxers of
our time, Bernard Hopkins (47-4-1-32 KO's) from
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is indeed a soul with
much determination. His fight against Jermain
Taylor (25-0-17KO's) from Little Rock, Arkansas on
Saturday, December 3, at the Mandalay Bay Event
Center entitled, 'No Respect' proved that two world
class fighters can add class to the world of boxing
and good sportsmanship.
•
•
Before a sold out crowd of
over ten thousand, Hopkins didn't waste any time in
picking up the pace in the early rounds. He proved
that at the age of forty he still has what it
takes; although he lost the fight to Jermain Taylor
who won by a unanimous decision and retained his
title, he definitely gained Taylor's respect.
•
•
The judges score card read
as follows: Chuck Giampa had it 115-113 in favor of
Taylor; Patricia Jerman scored it 115-130 for
Taylor and judge Dave Moretti had it 115-113 for
Taylor.
•
•
Throughout the fight,
referee Jay Nady, consistently told Taylor to stop
holding Hopkins. With that exception Taylor did
perfect his jab and garnered the points he needed
throughout the fight. Hopkins, on the other hand,
according to Compu Tech stats, led in power
punches. With Saturday's loss, Hopkins, who will be
leaving boxing, said he would consider staying for
a little while longer. The big question now is how
much longer? In January he will be
forty-one.
•
•
As a teenager, Hopkins has had his share of battles
with the law, which at one time at the age of
seventeen was incarcerated for five years in the
U.S. Penitentiary. He however used that experience
to discipline himself as a fighter and to succeed
in life.
•
•
"When you're a boxer you
become somewhat of a hero- your reputation gives
you respect. I look at all my lessons in life as
training and discipline. It comes from being in a
situation like the military, which is prison life.
I needed that part of my life to be here," says
Hopkins.
•
•
Bernard Hopkins on July 16th
before a sold out crowd at MGM Grand Garden lost
his title to a young Jermain Taylor. Although the
media felt he won the fight, especially because of
the 12th round where judge Duane Ford scored it for
Taylor, Hopkins realized that this is another
lesson in
life.
•
•
It could not have been a better script for Bernard
Hopkins, the former champion says, "I understand
the blessings of the July 16th fight…..The
only regret I have, knowing what I know now, is not
knocking out Jermain Taylor when I had him."
•
•
Such were the statements
Hopkins made before the fight on December 3. at a
work out. Hopkins said, "This is the last dance of
greatness to show that not only did I do it my way,
but (for Taylor and others) to pay homage and bow
down."
•
•
In that statement, we must
remember that Hopkins was voted 'Fighter of The
Year' by Ring Magazine, Manager of The Year by
Ring, and then he has crossed all bounders not only
as a business partner with Oscar De La Hoya, of
Golden Boy East, but also as a ringside
commentator.
•
• Although
Hopkins is leaving the middleweight division, he
did say he might fight at a higher weight at a
later date while he is making room for one of his
fighters, Kingsley, to get a chance at the
middleweight belt. The other fights on the card
were as
follows:
•
• The
12 round World Super Bantamweight Championship
Unification Bout had Oscar Larios (57-4-1-36 KO's)
of Guatalajara, Mexico lose his WBC title against
Israel Vasquez (39-3-28 KO's) of Mexico City,
Mexico when referee Tony Weeks stopped the fight in
the third round due to a large cut on Larios's left
eye.
•
•
In a ten round jr.
middleweight bout, Ike 'Bazooka' Quartey, (37-2-1
31 KO's) of Accra, Ghana beat out Carlos Bojorquez
(26-8-6 21 KO's) of Mira Loma, California in 2:12
of the 10th round. Quartey had the advantage
throughout the rounds using his left jab scoring
consistently throughout the rounds.
•
•
Joshua Clottey (29-1-21
KO's) of Bronx, N.Y. won the WBC Continental
Americas Interim Jr. Middleweight championship in a
ten round bout against Marcus Prinera (20-12-2-12
KO's) of Durham, North Carolina. A very promising
Demetrius Hopkins (23-0-1-9 KO's) of Philadelphia,
Pa knocked out Jessie Feliciano in 2:23 of the 4th
round of a 10 round Jr. Welterweight
bout.
