Bring back more old vids like this .. the sport needs the vault unlocked let’s go!!! Top rank
I agree Louiejames626 let's see the weekly ESPN Top Rank Shows from 1980 thru 1986 when you could follow the progress of the "up and coming fighters" as they worked their way up the ladder to the major network fights on ABC, NBC, CBS and then HBO. The era when the sport of boxing gave us something to look forward to every week.
Hopkins was racist - I can’t believe boxing supports this bigot
Double standard in society
Absolutely agreed.
There is no other sport better than boxing.
100 percent facts!!
🏈, 🏀, MMA
Curling. Golf. Darts. Poker. Chess.
Then you clearly haven’t seen the wild world of synchronized swimming.
I knew the beer drinking MMA fans would comment 👍🤪
What a great boxer, he did 5 years in prison, lost his first professional fight and then went on to become one of the longest reigning middleweight champions, amazing story.
& oldest ranked active too i think….
B-Hop really live the “Undisputed,” Fight Night, etc., prison movie storyline. One of the best technical boxers of his era. His fundamentals were so strong, that’s why his longevity was insane.
TR THIS IS WHAT WE WANT!great cinematography, smooth edits, buttery film texture this is good work. this is whats missing from the game .
Definitely
I was at this session filming and photographing for a website
I respect Hopkins discipline with his diet and work ethic, he made the most of his time in the sport.
Sparring starts at 21:46
Boxing is beautifull, novices bumping shoulders with hall of famers at the gym, the people's sport!
that is pretty sick. also boxing is hinged on normal guys /gals content creating daily . no other sport is that in tune with the core audience.
old is gold.
Gold is old too 6000 years
With the late, great Bouie Fisher. Top Rank has, by far, the deepest vault in the sport.
For sure, I wish they released more SRL footage
Yep a Jew
Bouie fisher and freddies coach i forget hisname but damn were they smart
Bet y’all didn’t recognize Naazim Richardson holding the mitts.
Yup Brother Naazim before the stroke.
On god I did
I did. I was there that day.
this footage is absolute gold. keep it coming
My all time favorite boxer. B-HOP!
Smh.. couldn’t even beat bum @ss Taylor
Lost his first fight to a nobody
Hopkins was overrated. Tito & De La Hoya were smaller
He got whooped by Pascal and made racist comments that Joe Calzaghe put to rest
Last fight he was knocked out of the ring
Bernard was a bum. And no young fighter would want their careers to mimic Hopkins
He sucks man
He was racist
You know this. I know this. Everyone knows this.
Gold..everyone in ther with B Hop, old school, all the fundamentals, working on various things in drills, everything in measure.
damn even recorded the footwork‼️
Sparring looked good, weren’t killing each other but still competitive and highly technical.
Bhop had great fundamentals. The footwork, the jab, the right hand, the defense was just right
Naziim Richardson one of the best coaches EVER
Caught the cement mixers.
We need more of that old school stuff Toprank! Love to see it.
Top Rank still has the deepest vault in boxing media history. we need to see more footage of legends who are still alive and contributing to the sport today. think of how much footage there is of Holmes, Hearns, even Breland!
Lets see Barkley,Breland,and Curry
Must be Hagler and Mancini stuff in this Top Rank Vault 🥊
TOP RANK lets go! publish old vids we have never seen, thats what we want to see
This dude was dangerous!
Legendary
This man is maybe my favorite fighters of all time… wealth of boxing information and skills and a perfect example of a Philadelphia fighter… I was charged for a homicide at 16 and he came to the center right before I got off quarantine…. I was mad I missed him…. I was supposed to start training with frank ward after the snow got off the ground…. And I caught a shooting…. Ain’t even gonna lie… a hero to me…
Bouie Fisher, Naazim Richardson THE Old School Rules see them Hand wraps. BHop hate him or Love Him Gotta Respect his Discipline
This is top quality
One of the best boxers of all time
This is Epic
Bhop legendary . Best knockout of Felix " Tito " Trinidad. Great matches he had . Such a throwback fighter. Yeh he got beat who does,nt ❤ boxing Gen X rule.😮
Gold! Bouie Fisher need his flowers. Bro Naazim without the kufi. This is a classic.
Top Rank please keep reaching in the vault
Top 5 all time
I’m not a huge fan of BH that’s my favorite era of boxing
Here we also wrap the lead hand first.
Bernard es una verdadera leyenda en este hermoso deporte
Love me some B Hop, definitely one of my all time favorite fighters.
Looking at boxrec I think he must have being getting prepared for Keith Holmes or Carl Daniels. Both southpaw fighters that he faced in early 2000s. The gym music is from around that time
Definitely think this is around 2004 most likely the Robert Allen fight as the Grant sparring gear also lines up around that timeline when they switch to the newer logo with “Grant” written underneath it. The 2001 time line the Grant logo was a circle logo before they changed it around the time Roy Jones started promoting their gear.
@@csquaredboxingyeah Robert Allen. I watch your videos before I buy gear.
If you really WATCH this film you notice just how much Bernard mastered the fundamentals.
He was a brutal technician in the ring!! 💰🔥💪
I love this video with all my heart but there was less than 2 minutes of sparring footage!
Bro has thin hands I'm surprised
THE BEST EVER TOP RANK IS GOLD Rare Footage B hop, do you have Floyd Mayweather JR and Oscar de la Hoya in TOP RANK VAULT Is LEGENDARY🇺🇲💯🥊™️
Great video, I wonder what gym he was at?
Truly an Alien
R.i.P Bouie Fisher and Naazim Richardson
Hopkins never amazed me back in the early 2000's ,i was more amazed on diego xhico corrales, panchito bojado and juan manuel marquez , but now i look back and notice how skillfull hopkins was and man this dude reminds me of master yoda .
I wonder how old Hopkins was at that time considering he was fit and well into his old age
I'm guessing this is before the Robert Allen fight in 04. So 39.
Gold
Work Champ
good old days
and Don King wrapping Bernard's hands before the sparring
Even though not one of my favorite fighters his dedication to the sport is at the highest level. I wonder how old he was when he incorporated his head into his combo's.
post tarver fight.
My favorite fighter on fight night round 3 he just look like a villain dirty fighter though 😂💪🏿👌🏿🤌🏿💯 It’s something about the soothing background sounds of a Boxing 🥊 Gym That soothes the brain and lights that fighter in you 💪🏿💯🏆
sparring with cleto's on lmao bro is a menace
Are they 16 oz gloves they're using in the sparring?
More SRL footage??
This is when they really valued not leaking sparring videos, nowadays, it's not respected.. Look how many sparring kids get leaked today.
Which year was this recorded in?
Sparring started an hour later after Eli S was gone
Tell me you've got one of jones, Toney or Trinidad? Oscar? He was top rank
wtf are those wraps 💀
I'll answer that... Yes! Bernard Hopkins is a BADASS!
💜...
❤
This was in Miami i think
Великий чемпион
🥊☝🏿
Was he preparing for the Trinidad fight here?
My Favorite Fighter Bhop
What year was this 🥊
1 of the main reasons for hand injuries they can’t keep them open for most of the wrapping time Cutting circulation and other reasons the need for calcium and other minerals
Who is he prepping for? Tarver/calzaghe?
What year and before what fight?
When was this recorded?
Last week
Had to be early 2000’s around the time of his Trinidad fight.
It's after '03-'04 as 50 Cent starts playing once he hits the mitts
YES UFC
Bhop and Bouie Fischer was the best combo
what year was this?
Is Bhop wearing coaching gloves to spar in? 😅
BOOOCA BOOOOCAAAAA!!!
i want to be thenext Hopkins, unstoppable
What year was this?
👍👍👍
The only thing I like about BHop is that he’s from Philly … that’s about it
Was in pub last night. And heard someone talking about the usyk fury rematch. You just dont hear mma fights being mentioned its no where near as big as boxing. And never will be. Thats why the moneys crap in comparison,. 90% of the fights end up on the floor grappling. Boring and mundane. And few more years non existent. All you hear on internet is people making exuses for it
I just watched Makachev hug Poirier for 20 minutes. MMA sucks
Honestly is there any way in the world tht plaster of paris wasnt gonna b the nxt logical evolution ?
What year is this?
was he sparring w/ pernell whittaker?
How old is he here
year?
How old was Bhop here if any one knows?
The US pronunciation. BerNAAAAARD. 😂
Hopkins wss very crafty. Problem to face.
What is this year? Is he 30 or somethin?
Besides Hopkins going to prison He was a Muslim, and had a strict diet. Along with his discipline, he fought in his 50s.
so where’s the sparring 🤷♂️
Who was he training to fight? I know it’s a southpaw
Trinidad
I'm Ellie Sekbak RePOrTiNG 🕺
He missed showing punches to the hip and bull dog head rush in this training. Also the acting.
Господи помилуй! Крутой пенсионер, я грешник думаю, Бернард всю жизнь дерëтся! "Железная дисциплина", опасен даже на пенсии! Матëрый " Швейцар "сколько молодых, " голодных "бойцов, не пропустил на верх? Спасибо!
I'm atheist, I don't think it's from God but I think it's an amazing point of view and really opens my eyes to so many options. Thank you for sharing this, you are doing your lords work😂🙏🏾
28 minute video, 1 minute of sparring
doesn’t matter. appreciate the fact that we got to see in depth footage of the training lifestyle of a legend such as Hopkins. even the wrapping of his hands is masterful.
