Bernard Hopkins Correspondent for Jim Rome is Burning on ESPN

Bernard is acting as guest correspondent for Jim Rome today in order to create more interest for his big fight against Joe "Calzog" - (running joke from earlier post).

Jim describes him as reigning Ring Light Heavyweight Champ. So I guess Rome buys into the Ring too?

Some words from Nazim Richardson first. The ususal about Bernard always being on weight.

Freddie Roach describing B Hop as a true pro and super focused. Bernard knocks the wind out of Roach sometimes as Bernard is still very strong.

Lots of good training footage in LA.

Bernard says he is blessed to have three teachers at this point in his career.

The segment was very short. Seriously two minutes. Pretty much a super short version of Countdown minus any footage of "Calzog".

Still, as always, any boxing coverage on the major outlets is always a good thing.
