    Great stuff. It's great to hear him say he was wrong after observing and experiencing what's involved.

    Also, how he is speaking in real world terms saying how 9/10 MMA guys would lose in the ring and vice versa. Great to hear him change his tune and it can only be good for MMA to have a boxing legend like B-Hop championing the sport and not talking about it in the same terms as the likes of James Toney and other guys out to make a quick buck!

    Yeah I agree it's great to hear Hopkins speak so candidly and change is mind a rarity for a man in his position.

    Really nice to see MMA getting respect from such great practitioners of the striking arts.
