Does Bernard Hopkins remind anyone of Dan Henderson?

Madvillain8 · March 8

It's weird everytime I watch a B-Hop fight I just see a black Hendo. The way they both hunch their backs while striking and they both setup that big right hand with some of the most crafty well timed combinations. I don't know it might be just me anyone else?

Not at all. B-Hop is actually very skilled and doesn't really throw everything he's got into one massive haymaker. He's quick, accurate, deceptive and has excellent movement, distance and timing with great reflexes for a guy his age.

Hendo just loads up like he's trying to hum a baseball through 6 feet of steel and almost everyone see's that right truck coming a mile away. The only difference is his chin is so iron people don't like to move in to counter him so they usually just get the **** out of dodge just in case they get hit by a truck
then once the trucks momentum passes then they might take a stab at a wheel or a headlight when he turns the truck around to face them.

How do you know?
He's 48 for crying out loud. His testosterone level has got to be lower than what you need to grow a beard.

LOL people who need TRT are normally ex steroid users. What is thing here where people think your t levels must be low if your over 40..

That's a medical FACT. Men's T levels start dropping from the age of 30. It's called ageing.

The tempo of the drop may vary from one indivudual to the other. But nature makes no exceptions - everybody gets old and everybody dies.

Yeah, but old men can still grow beards.

Hopkins is a master at the sweet science Hendo throws like a barroom brawler,and is off balence.HOWEVER They are both fighting at a pretty high level, givin their age.so they have that in common.

Hopkins' TDD sucks donkey balls, and his jitz is worse than Lavar Johnson's.

See what I did there?

Hendo throws the way it is most effective in an MMA fight.

No.... Bernard has actually won a relevant title recently.

Hendo's jiu jitsu also sucks.

Yeah I was impressed that a 48 year old man could look so good against a young strong opponent. Guy is truly remarkable. Quite the chin for an old man too
