Not only that but the same holds true for a fighter going to a neutral corner after the opponent has been knocked down or the ref calls a time out. Still, when it happens repeatedly during a fight then questions might arise but I really don't believe Hopkins is one of those. The guy is alert and shows it in interviews and such. He can snap back an answer like the crack of a whip. Maybe I'm wrong but that's my take on it.boxingfreak wrote:I just don't agree w/ Roach throwing Bernard "under the bus" w/ comments like him going to the wrong corner. if you don't wanna see him fight anymore, fine, tell him, and step away as his trainer. there, now you've done your part, Freddie. now leave it alone.
it's not necessarily for you to go to the press and tear the man down.
