Good Run

Bernard Hopkins loses to Jermain Taylor, bring an end to the greatest undefeated streak of modern times: twelve years. Hopkins is forty years old and was planning on stepping up in weight after beating Taylor, but will remain at middleweight for the rematch. Unless there are gnawed-at bones in his closet that we don't know about, everything on the record suggests that Hopkins is as class an act as can be found in professional sports. The rematch is gonna fucking smoke.
