Turn this green
Bad Left Hook - The SB Nation boxing blog
"Baseball is played on the field, not on a calculator."
don’t forget the clear distinction, African-America fighters because Clottey isn’t ‘black’ like Hopkins. He doesn’t have the swagger like James Toney.
Hopkins’ interviews are classic.

Wasn’t Nate Campbell , not Hopkins, the one who said that Pacquiao was ducking (or something to that effect) African-American fighters?
I think that it was Nate first
And that Hopkins has since repeated it.

In Oscar's defense
He did say GB will deliver the best fights, not that they have delivered the best fights.
Quality post!
Still searching for an alive Dan Tucker.
