I've always been impressed in Bernard's work ethic, natural abilities, and endurance. His legendary status is never going to be in jeopardy. . .and he's a first-ballot HOF'er.
***I've noticed, though, that in his last few fights, he doesn't have the TENACITY that he once had. Is his age showing? I saw an old legend fight against Calzaghe, who threw a shot, then clutched the younger Welshman until the ref seperated, or until Joe "seperated them with punches". Any thoughts?
