Oldest boxer to win a championship, previous record holder was George Foreman set in 1994.

Fight was fuckin entertaining as hell. 46 vs. 28 yr old. Hopkins literally did 5-10 pushups before the 7th ground began. Won the fight unanimously, and plans to keep on fighting the best competition.

Good shit.
 


Awesome but I'm still waiting on the Shoemoney vs Barman championship fight.

Any word on that?
 
Roy Jones also got KOed the same night B-Hop wins a world title at 46 against a young lion in his prime.

Tonight just shows that boxing is a science which requires true skills.

Roy was an attribute based fighter who relied on speed and freakish athletics to overwhelm guys, he got away with throwing wild hooks with unorthodox technique because he was so damn fast. But we all saw what happened when he started to slow down and get older. He started to get beaten to the punch and has been KOed multiple times.

B-Hop on the other hand has almost perfect technique, excellent basics and insane defense with no real athletic specialties, and here he is winning world titles at 46.

Good shit.
