LPS5, hopkins has a lot of dog in him. as in hot dog. and as in a tendency to lay down, with a liberal dose of peculiar behavior tossed in for good (bad) measure. i have seen him feign injury twice (imo he was feigning injury)... once when he went out of the ring and landed on the floor and then in his most recent bout. now most people would say if you get tossed out of the ring, you bet you are hurt. but i think hopkins could have continued but elected not to. in his last fight where he got picked up and dropped, i thought they were going to have to put him in a body cast the way he was screaming and crying. but then he elected to continue, remembering to not throw his right for awhile, but eventually throwing it at will. (after the fight, he conveniently forgot all the rights he threw and said that he was "a one-armed fighter".) as for roy jones, i hate his style. a guy with his speed and power and skills ought to just go out there and flat take care of business. instead, he dances around and mugs for the camera and wiggles his ass and makes faces until i could puke. so we've got a hot dog who wants to lay down facing a bigger hot dog who refuses to fight. ask me again, do i care about this crap? not even close. jmo, of course. :) mark
