Hopkins Vs. Eastman

only way i see eastman winning is setting a fast pace and sticking to it.. and since when has howard set a fast pace. id love eastman to win as im from the uk but i dont see it. bet the fight doesnt come off either, especially with big name opponents delahoya and trinidad waiting for another shot IMO there is a good chance of the fight happening, its true that Hopkins has bigger fights to make but he always has time for a couple of soft defences. Eastman will keep the rust of Hopkins for the next big fight!! Eastman has a slim chance, but i think Hopkins will school him!

Yeah that was him. In fairness to Eastman though, I saw Elliot fight Brian Magee at super middle and Magee struggled, even getting knocked down in the first round. I think it is hard to look good agains someone like that.

I am also from the UK and would love to see Eastman win, but after watching his last fight against Jerry Elliot, I just cannot see it happenning unfortunately. was eliot the light heavyweight sized opponent.. with the big torso and little legs? he was shit but he wqas big too and eastman was cautious

Although Eastman deserves his shot, I think that Hopkins is much too skilled for him and will win an easy UD.

True but he had a chance and lost to William joppy come on joppy.

i think eastman will try to knock hopkins out and hopkins will just outbox eastman lopsided decision 117-111

boxrec.com has it scheduled

It made the papers in England with a few quotes from Hopkins so looks pretty certain. yeah thats were i read it aswell mate but i still can't see the fight happening. as a british fight fan i hope it does but i just dont see it.

i read that this fight was set aswell but i'll believe the rumours when i hear hopkins say it himself. It made the papers in England with a few quotes from Hopkins so looks pretty certain.
