Default Score 1 for the old farts!

Watched a great fight Saturday night as Bernard Hopkins became the oldest man ever to win a major championship, the Light Heavyweight title. He went 12 rounds with Jean Pascal, a man 18 years younger, and dominated the fight. He even came out on the short end of two disputable knockdown calls (he knocked down Pascal twice IMO but the ref called them slips). Long live King B-Hop! Best quote too:

"I’m that aging car, the ’65 Lincoln with suicide doors. I got to keep the car running and keep it oiled and going around the block. I don’t have to drive it too far, but I want to keep the engine running."
