I’ve done so many unpredictable things and so profoundly. Even the people who want to go against me, are afraid to go against me. They’ve been wrong so many times. A lot of them are just being mum right now. They must feel I can still do things.

Bernard Hopkins

I must destroy everybody that comes in front of me. I must execute them and I must do it in grand style. I must slay Robert Allen like I must slay De La Hoya or anybody else that steps in that ring.
BERNARD HOPKINS

You’re hated by some, loved by others, but that’s what’s great about being different. If everybody loved you, that means you’re not doing the right thing most of the time.
BERNARD HOPKINS

BERNARD HOPKINS

Challenges Effort Ordinary
When you have somebody that’s smart and you’re not so smart, to me that’s modern day slavery because you’re being dictated to.
BERNARD HOPKINS

Motivation Slavery Smart

Fighter Motivation Winning
I like Sergio Martinez. I think he’s strong, he’s gritty, he’s got plenty of heart, he’s not the fanciest guy you might have seen in boxing but he has the goods to be around a long time in the Middleweight division.
BERNARD HOPKINS

Heart Motivation Strong
I was made to be where I’m at. I just had to go through some challenges, so that I can educate others later.
BERNARD HOPKINS

Enjoy that you can see me now. I would love to see the great Michael Jordan and Julius Erving in their younger days, but they’re gone. Look at me at 50, I’m going to eat right and live right so I can take less punches and look normal.
BERNARD HOPKINS

Gone Looks Out Work
I always not only want push the envelope in my career but I also have an itch for going against the grain.
BERNARD HOPKINS

Careers Out Want Work
I want to be the poster child for taking care of yourself after 40. Obesity is an epidemic in this country and I’m a living, breathing example of what it means to stay healthy.
BERNARD HOPKINS

There’s always a chance you will see something new in a fight. Especially in boxing.
BERNARD HOPKINS

Boxing Chance Fighting
You’ve got to be willing to look at a guy’s face and say I will kill you if I have to. You’ve got to be willing to look in his face and say that I will stab you, I will hurt you and you can’t talk the game, you’ve got to really act and do the game.
BERNARD HOPKINS

Hurt Motivation Talking
Understand that I’m at my best when it comes to proving a point, not only to show that I’m a better fighter and a better athlete at 40½ years old, but I’m at my best when I know I’ve got to beat the system again.
