All due respect to Smokin' Joe where you could make a case. My tiebreaker would be that B-HOP was BORN and raised here. Smokin' Joe is all Philly but he was born in South Carolina and came here as a teen.
jjayphilly yea, but joe frazier learned to box in philly by getting the shit kicked outta him by 2 middleweight brothers. frazier is a classic Philadelphia fighting system boxer.
This is probably top 5 interview for the breakfast club. I was able to take notes and learn from this and apply it to current situations I'm going through
I love B-Hop, but he sound like a hater against Floyd during this interview. B-Hop is not in those negotiation rooms with Floyd, thats why he never sees him do deals. I guarantee Floyd arrogant self is not sitting silent on those negotiation deals.
unirave Does't mean hes in those meetings. Not his area otherwise, he wouldve simply said Floyd doesnt negotiate his deals instead of "I never heard or seen Floyd negotiate..." as if hes not there.
Jason Voorhees y’all can’t get over the way he talks if you listen to the words he’s saying it’s actually good info for fighters who want to become businessmen
This man is speaking knowledge and wisdom. I shut my mouth and listen. He’s 52 in this interview and looks like he’s 38. Smh. These are the type of men I look up to. He’s a living legend, a great businessman, and a martial arts genius. I’m all in.
I would love to see Bernard Hopkins graduate from college with a degree in English. But all joking aside, this man really had my respect b/c he is so disciplined and focused.
I used to detail his and his wife's car. Wilmington Delaware at Prices Corner car wash one of the most humble individuals I have ever met. He talk to me like he knew me my whole life! a good soul and in my mind the greatest fighter to ever live I salute you brother✊💯🙏
I am 41 and I box very well at the lower divisions. They sell us that age thing. All you need is Discipline. I don't do alcohol or cigarettes, no clubbing, no junk food, always working out, no artificial things or anything food in a pack. Though in Africa our food and body make up is different, our water is natural, some of us have amazing genetics. When u see me you would never agree I am up to 40
He is one of the best businessmen after boxing. Floyd Mayweather has a lot of business he's involved in that Al Haymon has made sure he will always be a rich man. I appreciate boxers who listen to another savvy business person.
This has to be the best interview yet. Other than Boyce Watkins but I relate to this one so much more. thanks y'all for what y'all do and the risk y'all take with letting the truth be unfiltered
i love how he didnt make himself look like a sucker for getting knocked out the ring. he took that one like a man and kept going forward and kept it positive. no rounda rousey shit lol
5:48 - LMFAO This dude is a character. hahahaha. Would love to hang out with him one day. Dude looks like he's really ethical, though. I respect him for that.
Best interview of the year so far. That's a million dollar dude giving somewhat of a guide. But when I think about sports I always think about the invisible man by Ellison .
Man don't hate on Yee, she's the only female interviewing men. She has to add her comments or what is she there for? She's cool, everyone just need to chill. Her background is hip hop so let's just chill.
I didn't know he was as informed as he is. a guy from prison most had counted out. a black felon sending his daughter to collages. how can you hate on that. this man knows his boxing. great interview.
"Don't always...Never always..." OK, BHop. Bernard's my man, but his problem is he loves to hear himself talk, and he should sit down and listen to himself on tape some time. He's the man, but he's not as smart as he thinks he is. Naazim had one of the best quotes in an interview right after BHOP got KO'd.
I have listened to Bernard Hopkins interviews for years. He has so much knowledge it's amazing. He is Nobody's Fool. Remember he came out of jail and built himself into a millionaire. You can never take that away.
As a boxing fan I have to say that watching B-Hop still boxing in his 50's is like getting the bike you wanted as a kid at 35.. I'm over it that time has passed.
Marine Vet you never had that fighting fire burn in your soul. Boxing is life, you never lose the itch. We are insane, that's why we fight. U wouldn't understand
Philly's REAL Rocky.
This man needs a statue in the city.
jjayphilly word up💯💯
all due respect to Bhop but Philly's real rocky gotta be smoking Joe Frazier
jjayphilly They'll wait til 10 years after he's dead. Sad.
All due respect to Smokin' Joe where you could make a case. My tiebreaker would be that B-HOP was BORN and raised here. Smokin' Joe is all Philly but he was born in South Carolina and came here as a teen.
jjayphilly yea, but joe frazier learned to box in philly by getting the shit kicked outta him by 2 middleweight brothers. frazier is a classic Philadelphia fighting system boxer.
B Hop look like that uncle that you hoop wit but foul you hard af everytime you go up for a lay up 😂😂
Tavion Kizz W 😂😂😂
Lmao punch you dead in your chest and be like: "Foul!? What foul!? Your generation is so soft!"
Tavion Kizz lmao!! Yep. You sho right.
Tavion Kizz lmao
And he say he's making your tougher.
But low-key he just dont want a younger person beating him. 🤣🤣
bernard hopkins the kinda guy thats keeps talking after you hang up the phone
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Random Genius Hold this W 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
hahahhaa
Random Genius I've never heard Hopkins described better
Random Genius hahaha
You know you talkin to a OG when he keeps touchin you're elbow while he's speaking!!
Rotter Dam on some real shit. hahaha and with the hand shakes they at like 40 hahahaha
Lmfao
You a are a black dude a 100%
😂

When i was 35-0 i went through the same thing Bernard
-Angela Yee
72vince27 😂😂😂😂
72vince27 I almost spit out my juice. That shit was funny af
lmao
😂😂😂🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
CompuBox stats show Hopkins landed 92 jabs to Charlemagne left arm.
rrmond hahaha!
rrmond lmfaooo!
rrmond Funny!!!
Charlemagne wanted to move away.
Compubox number always lies he landed more
first ten minutes it felt like they aint ask him really no questions he just start going in lol I like that
Mookie Woods thats what B Hop always does
Omar Scruggs im not familiar with him other than rappers using him in a rap line but I see why now
Mookie Woods he said "this my house!"
Mookie Woods thats a fighters mentality... go in...
Mookie Woods He always does that.
angela yee- " you know I once watched a boxing match at this juice bar that I started up myself"
James The Dolphin LOL!!
started herself with Dj Envys money
FACTS LOL
James The Dolphin 😂😂 Stupid😂😂
LMAO!!!!!!
Bernard is that one good Uncle that everybody needs to have!! That one uncle that always got your back,even when u fucktop again.
I learned so much from this dude growing up. My grandpa was a Pro boxer and inspired me to start fighting. He's truly a legend!
God blessed this guy to be his age, still boxing, and still healthy physically and mentally... b-hop definetly one of the greatest.
God Bless this man. Great rags to riches story.
From prison to 1st ballet boxing Hall of Famer.
NEVER GIVE UP.
Yes sir he is a pure example of never giving up.
Bernard has a lot of personality! I enjoy these kinds of interviews (especially when Yee doesn't have much to say since there's no gossip topics).
Lol
B Hop just dropping MAD knowledge, some ppl just can't even grasp it to appreciate
Bernard is too smart for the average person they don't get it. they will catch up eventually.
@@medieval4433 straight up when he talking about the jewish
Bhop a crackhead
Life Advice : It doesn't matter how much you work out, it's about how much work you put in.
DJBVA08 I don't get it
RCH 32 you could work out a 3 times a day but if you not actually working hard you aren’t gonna have any tangible results
old heads always want like 5 hand shakes during a convo
This is probably top 5 interview for the breakfast club. I was able to take notes and learn from this and apply it to current situations I'm going through
Bernard Hopkins knows way too many sayings he hasn't memorised properly 😂
😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹
It's not that. He has silent senility compounded by his boxing-career, induced trauma. Shhhh!
Bookedonphonicstizzery
"Niggas don't wanna win. They just wanna look good losing...."
But salute to B Hop...look out for Lil B Hop outta NYC on the Netflix doc Counterpunch
robert latimore great documentary.
I love B-Hop, but he sound like a hater against Floyd during this interview. B-Hop is not in those negotiation rooms with Floyd, thats why he never sees him do deals. I guarantee Floyd arrogant self is not sitting silent on those negotiation deals.
he is, he works with golden boy boxing.golden boy co promoted floyds' fights until 2014
You can say the same for Floyd hating on Andre Ward.
unirave Does't mean hes in those meetings. Not his area otherwise, he wouldve simply said Floyd doesnt negotiate his deals instead of "I never heard or seen Floyd negotiate..." as if hes not there.
He was dropping some low key gems this whole interview
.
Jason Voorhees y’all can’t get over the way he talks if you listen to the words he’s saying it’s actually good info for fighters who want to become businessmen
Nigga did a whole interview by himself
all I can think about is how perfect Jamie Foxx would play him in a movie 😂 mannerisms the same!
SadieTheScienceBeauty I agree
Wow they even dress similar
I love when people speak both truth AND fact! Respect to Bernard.
This man is speaking knowledge and wisdom. I shut my mouth and listen. He’s 52 in this interview and looks like he’s 38. Smh. These are the type of men I look up to. He’s a living legend, a great businessman, and a martial arts genius. I’m all in.
Lemme guess Angela yee got a ex that used to box
Cashley Banks she got a friend for every situation 😂. It really be her going through those situations or she makes it up 😂
Cashley Banks Y'all are beyond corny...
Cashley from MD? 👀
Box that lil Hot Box....💯...good observation 🤣
I would love to see Bernard Hopkins graduate from college with a degree in English. But all joking aside, this man really had my respect b/c he is so disciplined and focused.
Jason Voorhees and you’re an internet fan who has nothing better to do than try to diminish people you don’t know. Sucker
Show us your college degree from Harvard, all jokes aside.
appreciate this interview Breakfast Club One Love
One of my favourite boxers of all time. Absolute legend.
one of the best interviews I've seen
This interview is good. I'm not a big fan of boxing but I still enjoyed
One of the best Interviews the breakfast club has performed. I watched Hopkins' fights growing up but never knew the extent of his knowledge.
I used to detail his and his wife's car.
Wilmington Delaware at Prices Corner car wash one of the most humble individuals I have ever met. He talk to me like he knew me my whole life! a good soul and in my mind the greatest fighter to ever live I salute you brother✊💯🙏
You know he REALLY SPITTING on Charlamagne and Angela Yee...they need to wipe their face...RESPECT to B-HOP
Even Roy Jones was forced to lean back
- Fat Joe
@A Warrior you already checked me tho
Bernard is a PASSIONATE man!!! He speaks with passion and wisdom! You can tell that man is pure motivation and has been through some real shit
The executioner!
Ray Choco the alien
B-Hop with the one-two.
Philly Legend
B Hop spitting them gems #legendary
I love boxing but what is southpaw?
- Envy
DICKRIDIN HATER he ask dumb questions
It's a different way of fighting. Left hand
Desi Doo 😒
Cookie! Where Ned and Suzie!?
Desi Doo he was making fun of Envy.. but he forgot to put, "for those who don't know explain to people what a {insert simple subject} is"
Boxing from the ages 40-52 is unreal.. most underrated feat in sports history.. Bernard Hopkins, legend
I am 41 and I box very well at the lower divisions. They sell us that age thing. All you need is Discipline. I don't do alcohol or cigarettes, no clubbing, no junk food, always working out, no artificial things or anything food in a pack. Though in Africa our food and body make up is different, our water is natural, some of us have amazing genetics. When u see me you would never agree I am up to 40
Bernard hopkins da type of dude to give u a long righteous lecture when u ask him to pass the salt...
George Foreman is the greatest boxer turned businessman. He has way more businesses besides the grill. People sleep on Foreman
He is one of the best businessmen after boxing. Floyd Mayweather has a lot of business he's involved in that Al Haymon has made sure he will always be a rich man. I appreciate boxers who listen to another savvy business person.
love to hear the og's dropping knowledgeable jewel's for you to carry on to your children.
This has to be the best interview yet. Other than Boyce Watkins but I relate to this one so much more. thanks y'all for what y'all do and the risk y'all take with letting the truth be unfiltered
One of my favorite! So underrated . Went from boxing in jail to being a world champ 👊🏽
I havent heard charlemagne this quiet since master p checked after he made inappropriate comments about a female P knew
Suga Ray Mercedes had a fat ass pussy😂😂😂😂 That Asian nigga came in had Cthegod on hush mode.
great interview!

i love how he didnt make himself look like a sucker for getting knocked out the ring. he took that one like a man and kept going forward and kept it positive. no rounda rousey shit lol
Great interview!!
man I love B Hop man. I appreciated this interview for sure
Sometimes u can't get back with the get back to get back what u getting for 😂😂😂
I don’t understand that shit for real
🤔
Bernard Hopkins can be a great story teller at a bonfire camp ground... he should look into that
Jason Voorhees disrespectful
Awesome interview
he's close enough to the mic wherever he is...you can hear him. This is a confident legend with a voice to match it
New Word: "You Got To Make Up What You SPUND"! Bernard Hopkins word.
Ladies & Gentlemen, The DMX of Boxing
Much love to the brother for holding it down till the end. Big ups BHOP!
Great interview 💯
B hop look like the mma dude dan henderson lol
IAMJUDAH he sho do 😂😂

IAMJUDAH lmao
ANGELA YEE DONT HAVE A CLUE SHE AINT SAID ANYTHING.
best interview of the year - strictly knowledge
5:48 - LMFAO
This dude is a character. hahahaha. Would love to hang out with him one day. Dude looks like he's really ethical, though. I respect him for that.
Low Key this interview was Classic hahahaha
Amazing interview. I'm a geek & I love you too Bernard. #PHILLY
Great interview
B Hop put them hands on Trinidad. He had some dirty tactics but he was a helluva boxer.
Jason Stewart Bernard wasn't dirty. He just a true old school Philly fighter. They hard nose fighter
Angela Yee: I have a friend that's a boxer...
Bernard is one sportsmen that talks more than the talk show hosts, and all three of them combined!!
b hop dropping jewels- between this interview and 4:44 its been a good week for conscious business minded brothers.
Yeh I noticed that too, I thought that was jus me Canelo started to use Mayweather's fightning style, i definitely saw that
HE PROBABLY WATCHED HIS FIGHT WITH FLOYD A 100 TIMES!
B hop, a legend, but talks in one big run-on sentence. No pauses. Comma after comma...😂
Shayne McC commas are pauses lol
All bulshit it is
Thats wat crackheads do
Dope interview
droppin GEMS!
cthagod waiting on every interview to quote lines from 48 laws of power!!!
yessir Philly legend
DIABOLICAL -VO wow
Thank you Hop for your honesty.
Salutes and much respect my brotha
This guy is a GENUIS
Best interview of the year so far. That's a million dollar dude giving somewhat of a guide. But when I think about sports I always think about the invisible man by Ellison .
why so?
HUMBL Ain't in the top ten.
B hop is the MAN.Dropping gems after warring in the ring for 30 years, BRILLIANT. Salute
The very definition of a man who talked the talk & most definitely walked the walk. The most interesting intelligent inside & out the ring.
B HOP YOU ARE A FRONT MAN TOO
Selma me an u always got Floyd back 👏🏾👏🏾✊🏾
SELMA LOYALITY IS YOUR MIDDLE NAME YOU'VE BEEN REPRESENTING FOR YEARS
Selma Word FACTS!
Trane SFC Lmaooooo
Trane SFC could u beat him tho ?
unfortunately, I went thru the ropes... 😂
hahahahahahahahaahaha.
That is unfortunate. hahahaha. I love how he said 'unfortunately'. hahahaah.
He got KNOCKED OUT of the ring with clean shots
This is the BEST INTERVIEW so far..... I love the Geeks!! Bring this Bernard back.
This dude has great insight I learned so much from this interview.
Man don't hate on Yee, she's the only female interviewing men. She has to add her comments or what is she there for? She's cool, everyone just need to chill. Her background is hip hop so let's just chill.
I didn't know he was as informed as he is. a guy from prison most had counted out. a black felon sending his daughter to collages. how can you hate on that. this man knows his boxing. great interview.
Great guy i met him 15yrs ago at his prime and he was very humble
Marques Labbe best comment on here...
The best interview ever
benard to charlemagne : you talking that mason stuff now ! .... charlemagne awkward silence ! lol
"Don't always...Never always..." OK, BHop. Bernard's my man, but his problem is he loves to hear himself talk, and he should sit down and listen to himself on tape some time. He's the man, but he's not as smart as he thinks he is. Naazim had one of the best quotes in an interview right after BHOP got KO'd.
#J_B What Quote was that? " That Nergo Went Flyin.."?
Do you have the link for the Naazim interview? Would love to see it
Breakfast Club has been getting more than musicians for their interviews lately.... to remind everyone (aka everyday struggle) who the big dogs are.
Who Cares .. Long As The Content Good
I agree^
The could never. Everyday struggle is good, but the b.c. is a radio show. E.S. is a web show about entertainment discussion.
Real OG. Went from being a stick up kid to a millionaire in the corporate world. Respect 👊🏿
I have listened to Bernard Hopkins interviews for years. He has so much knowledge it's amazing. He is Nobody's Fool. Remember he came out of jail and built himself into a millionaire. You can never take that away.
Envy: So you're a boxer, explain to the audience what boxing is
he got on that 'pervy uncle at the family bbq' hat/outfit
more like that I survived it all and kept all mine and it is summer time look...He is grown man chillin
Lynn W lol you drawin!😂
JetLife Pilot and droolin' at every booty that passes by in a sundress 😂
This comment belongs on Celebrity Mean Tweets
hahahaha classic!!!
I read about him in newspapers years ago never heard him speak before. He made it.
Good interview. Got the concept of all that he said.
As a boxing fan I have to say that watching B-Hop still boxing in his 50's is like getting the bike you wanted as a kid at 35.. I'm over it that time has passed.
Time has *what*??
Marine Vet he need to sit his old ass down somewhere
yea but he has retired though.
Marine Vet that was pretty stupid but if you say so....
Marine Vet you never had that fighting fire burn in your soul. Boxing is life, you never lose the itch. We are insane, that's why we fight. U wouldn't understand
