Bernard Hopkins - The Alien (Original Career Documentary)

Hopkins was literally just on the Rogan podcast giving his career retrospective, and now this to compliment it

You know hes a great when youre 15 minutes into a 42 minute video and he's 36 and just knocked out Trinidad. Soo much to unpack

The fact that he's called old and fading 13 min into a 40+ min video but still prime shows his greatness and longevity

It's kinda hard not to say that he is one of the greatest boxers of all time.

They need to give this man money and production team, and spots on ESPN every Friday and Sunday

Outboxing young champions at 40+.

Hopkins, a true legend.

NOBODY does it better! A movie each time out!! 💯🥊

I love the way you put your shows together. Those repeats and slo-mo shots of Hopkins knocking at Trinidad were priceless!

I am a boxer and honestly didn’t know too much about Hopkins. Shame on me. This video really made me emotional, wow, fantastic work as always Joseph. Thank you very much, this motivated me a lot

I recently been going threw these and this collection is already LEGENDARY! The More Content Added , this channel would be a Netflix of its own 🎉

Love these documentaries. I've seen all of them. I'm hoping to see one for Earnie Shavers soon.

The B-hop’s career was truly inspirational! Never quit! And believe in yourself!

The GOAT is back with another spectacular documentary 🎉

What's impressive about him is the late start. Then becoming better than those born in the sport.

I did not know a 39 year old Hopkins finished a 31 year old Oscar. Crazy.

These Documentaries you Do are Top notch Boss. I appreciate the fact that you showed the robberies he had with the Taylor fights and the first Pascal fight but you also showed how he bounced back with getting Straps at 48 years of age.

Perfect timing. Just started looking into his career today after hearing him on JRE. Figured you'd have one

His “amateur career” was more brutal than ANY Golden Gloves or Olympic Trials could ever provide! The stakes were much higher!

👏👏 👏
This is what you call a "This is your life" Bernard Hopkins boxing special!!! Loved every minute of it.
