 FOX Sports - Boxing - BoxingScene predictions: Hopkins-Taylor II   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-04)
Hopkins is a master at analyzing film and will dissect the first fight, finding the means to pulloff the win and setup the finale, padding his retirement account.
Hopkins had Taylor going in the late rounds but he got jobbed in the decision and there's no time like the present for the 40-plus year old fighter to get away from his usual slow starts and press the action right away.
Hopkins won't be able to keep up with Taylor, but may use his experience to stay in the fight and go the distance.

In Hopkins' undergraduate essays, On the Signs of Health and Decay in the Arts (1863) and On the Origin of Beauty (1864), it seems as if he is quoting Ruskin unconsciously, so imbued is he with the thought of the Victorian aesthete.
Hopkins was prepared for his vocation as poet by following the method of Ruskin and accepting the basic tenets of his aesthetics.
We know that Hopkins was still absorbed at the time by the Greek literature and philosophy he had studied for the Classical `Greats' exam he passed with honours at Oxford in June of 1867.

 Hello
Hopkins spent two years at Cardiff College of Music and Drama and, after a stint with the Royal Artillery (he clerked at a base), he performed on-stage in Wales, Manchester and Nottingham.
Hopkins' ties to daughter Abigail, 32, an actress who has been living in LA, have been more tenuous (she played a nurse in "Shadowlands" and a maid in "The Remains of a Day").
Hopkins is currently having fun in his latest role as Citizen Tony, the freshly minted American.

 Bernard Hopkins: Part Two- The CEO
More on that hill later, but at the time Bouie Fisher filed suit against Hopkins, it appeared to all that the thinking man’s champion, the maverick, had outthought himself, had made one move on the chess board too many, and was now stuck in a corner with no way out.
Hopkins and Fisher eventually reconciled without going to court, and Bouie was back after Sloan Harrison manned the corner for the champion’s March 2003 defense against Morrade Hakkar – another fight for which Hopkins drew ridicule as the fighter that threw away the winning lottery ticket.
So Hopkins kept winning, beating William Joppy in December of last year, and people again started to warm to "The Executioner" as a fighter, hoping that a marquee matchup could be made to showcase him or expose him against one of the best in the world.

 Anthony Hopkins Unleashed--Playboy Magazine (March 1994)
HOPKINS: Just after the war, I was in a little school called Bridge Street School and every lunch I could get on the bus and go home, which was about three miles.

 Boxing News : Hopkins Speaks His Mind. Doesn't He Always?
Hopkins makes it clear that a fight with Michalczewski is not an attempt to gain leverage in negotiating a return match with Jones, who outpointed Hopkins for the IBF middleweight title in 1993.
Hopkins has always been considered a 'fighter's fighter' but he does admit that he has had a subtle change in philosophy as it relates to his career.

 HOPKINS: WHY A 24-HOUR DEADLINE FOR TAYLOR TO SIGN by Eddie Goldman (March 17, 2005)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-04)
That offer, Hopkins contends, is "double what he has ever made in his whole career, including his last fight," when Taylor fought Daniel Edouard on Feb. 19 on the undercard of a show headlined by Hopkins's defeat of Howard Eastman at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
Hopkins and DiBella, of course, have been feuding for years, stemming from a successful libel suit by DiBella against Hopkins which followed the bitter break-up of their business relationship.
Hopkins noted that he had often "taken short money" to get to where he is today, the undisputed champion of the world, and the top pound-for-pound fighter in the world as well.

 Johns Hopkins Magazine -- September 1997
Says Hopkins nursing professor Martha Hill, "Faculty members could be standing on a soapbox on 34th and Charles and ranting about anything they want to, as long as they were productive otherwise." The First Amendment, she argues, offers all the protection any academician needs.
Hopkins junior faculty say, with the concurrence of some senior colleagues, that the Hopkins system creates a paradox: You must demonstrate that you can produce major scholarship that is influential in your field, but you're afraid to tackle something too big because you might not be able to finish before the clock runs out.
Don Giddens, who recently left Hopkins after five years as dean of the School of Engineering, says he was only able to lure one associate professor to the school during his time here.

 HBO: Boxing - Ron Borges   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-04)
Hopkins may be one of the few fighters in boxing who can talk trash as effectively as Toney.
Hopkins is not one from backing down from a debate, although he has made a habit of it recently when it comes to fights not because he fears anyone but because whatever the purse was it was never big enough to suit him once he destroyed Felix Trinidad two years ago.
That was King's street explanation for how Hopkins could win such a fight, become the unanimous and unquestioned choice for Fighter of the Year in 2001, and then be unable to parlay all that into a meaningful or financially lucrative follow up match.

[I first knew Don Hopkins as the up-and-coming African-American administrative assistant the UC Berkeley chancellor was using to put a Black face on the repression of student politics in 1966, when post-Free Speech Movement Berkeley would not tolerate outright suppression of student political rights.
My next encounter with him was in the Alameda County Courthouse in neighboring Oakland a few years later, where to my surprise, the same Don Hopkins appeared as a defense witness for Huey Newton, the Black Panther founder and leader accused of killing an Oakland cop who most certainly had tried to kill him.
Don began working for radical Black Congressman Ron Dellums, who went from Berkeley Council Member to Representative from the Oakland-Berkeley Congressional district, and who always stood up firmly for what he (and we) believed in.

Instead, the Johns Hopkins professor of geography and environmental engineering (DoGEE) thinks about all the stuff that accumulates in soil and water after decades of urban industrial development: pesticides, toxic organic compounds, chromium, mercury, arsenic, lead, the gasoline additive MTBE.
To study hazardous contaminants in urban areas, Hopkins has created the Center for Contaminant Transport, Fate, and Remediation (CTFR): "transport" as in how pollutants travel through the environment, "fate" as in what happens to them once they are in the soil or water, and "remediation" as in what best to do about them.
Now, as Johns Hopkins University's new executive director of safety and security at the Homewood campus, Skrodzki is charged with keeping students, faculty, staff, and visitors to the campus safe.

 The Second Life Herald: Interview with Don Hopkins
In this interview, Don Hopkins describes his early days on the Sims development team with Will Wright (back when the project was called Dollhouse) and the difficulties the team had fighting EA's attempts to terminate the project, and then preventing EA from gutting it of interesting content (like architecture tools).
Don Hopkins: I first met Will Wright in 1991, while I was working for Sun Microsystems, by responding to a proposal to port SimCity to the Sun workstation.
Hopkins: I don’t think the lack of user created content is the only reason The Sims Online is a failure, but I think it’s an extremely important one that EA went out on a limb and promised, but never executed on.
