One of Joes biggest assets is his Workrate. Hopkins cut it in half. Titos best asset was his power, Hopkins avoided his shots and broke him down etc,
Hopkins is a tactical genious IMO. Even if he strays into illegal tactics from time to time, he is very clever.
Hopkins is as ring smart and resourceful as any fighter I've ever seen.

Bernard can fight till he's damn near 50 and still never truly be beaten. That's what I love about Bernard. He'll never be beaten up in the ring and clearly lose. Too smart, he always makes it his type of fight. I almost wanna hold off on my highlight video because I know Pav is gonna walk into some highlight worthy punches and regardless to how likely it is he will win, he will definitely find himself very frustrated for large portions of early rounds.

His straight forward no special effects...
To me has old as Bernard is this is a fight he could win
Yeah, I agree. Unless Pavlik knocks him out, there is a good chance that Hopkins will beat him on points. Pavlik is really just a one dimensional tall slugger with no more than basics boxing skills. A willy old pro like Hopkins should be able to figure him out.
