Trinidad would kill him


are you joking? its been said before, and ill say it again, styles make fights. Tito is one of my favorite fighters, and he needs to stay away from Hopkins. Tito's style is made for Hopkins and I dont want to see him get ****ed up again. He basically got shut out last time, remember? it was a lopsided ass beating

Yeah, there isn't much evidence that Tito will do any diffrently the second time around. Hopkins has been much more active and is on top of his game right now.

it was more of a brutal one sided beating than Mayorga/Trinidad was, at least Mayorga landed a few good shots, Trinidad got shut down and put out by Hopkins.

I agree, Hopkins i think would put a serious beating on Tito. The first fight Hopkins made Tito his *****, a rematch after Tito has been out of action for 2 years??? Its madness. Hopkins has been active, hasn`t taken allot of punishment and is eagar to win.
I believe 7 one sided rounds next time and Hopkins will again parade round the ring shouting USA USA!!
Hopkins is one of my favorite fighters and when he beat that punk the first time, it was a feeling soooooo sweet!

Time is a factor for Hopkins,and Tito's factor is mental.Tito is one dimensional,so unless he adapted ,the same would happen.

Hopkins will break him down again. Tito didn't impress me very much in the Mayo fight. Titio should have handled him easily, but got clocked repetedly by Welter that dosen't train properly and has little boxing skills. Imagine if Tito was in with Hopkins? Maybe it was a bad night...maybe there was ring rust....but I don't think Tito would ever beat Hopkins: in the past, present, or future.

I had the first fight 108-101 for Hopkins coming into the 12th round.

It is cool when a boxing fan speaks but I see that there are a few ones
that are nothing but haters so their opinion is not the best. Keep it objective. While Trinidad is my favorite fighter, I recognize that Hopkins really dominated him back in 2001. But I think Hopkins is not the same fighter he was three years ago, has not been in the ring much(only 5 fights in the last three years), and 3 out of those 5 guys were not that good. To end, I would like to say that I give Trinidad a way better chance now if he prepares well and has a plan B in case that plan A does not work.

Hopkins didn't even break a sweat last time.

Hopkins beats him with ease again

Exactly Hopkins owned Tito. DLH won more rounds than Tito did.

Yep! Tito didn`t win a round and only a fool would believe that a rematch would be mildly competitive.
Tito has entered a weight division he doesn

Tito will not beat Hopkins. Stop this Trinidad fantasy. He didn`t beat De La hoya and he got stopped by Hopkins.
The guy is a good fighter but Hopkins is a great fighter. There is a class difference. Not to say Tito is bad. But Hopkins, well he is an all time great and should be placed in that context.
Bernard Hopkins would be insulted by this suggestion that Tito would beat him. What ****ing edvidence is there that Tito would win a round against Hopkins?? That easy fight against Mayora?? No way, Tito is limited. He isn`t an all time great, he will never be because he didn`t beat De la Hoya and he didn`t win a round against Hopkins. What a joke this Tito is. Its like Tyson, Tito is a bully and when he faced a fighter at his natural weight he got exposed.
I prey he fights Hopkins next because he`ll get beaten up and we

Hopkins KO in less than 4.

Check out the right hand that finished the fight.

He's not keeping that out.
