They're Making A Full-Body Wax Casting Of Bernard Hopkins For Display In An "Odditorium"
Hot off the presses from Bernard Hopkins's press folks and the good people from Ripley's Believe It Or Not is word that the boxer has committed to a two-day appearance in the F/X department at Ripley's world headquarters in Orlando. There, on Monday and Tuesday, he will "begin the tedious task of having a full body wax casting made as the first step in having a wax figure created of himself."
The unveiling will come during fight-week "activities" before the Hopkins punches and/or gets punched by Chad Dawson on Oct. 15. Then, it will frighten children for eternity.
