Taylor KO's hopkins
Taylor gets ko'd by Tito
he truly is a bitch
cant belive how obvious he was about just trying to survive
that was pretty damn sad and angering at the same time
do you guys think in cases like that
that those fights should be stopped?
i do
I don't think the fight should be stopped....but I do believe the comission should look into witholding part of the offenders purse.

It would be good to work something like that into the rules except that it would be hard to enforce. You can bet that some ref is going to mess it up and DQ some guy who was just trying to get his wind back. Maybe have a strict system of warnings and point deductions leading up to a DQ and it might work.

I'm glad some other people think it was a b.s. fight. I was mad I had to steal cable for that shit. Joppy has no defense and concedes to blocking pinches with his head just like he did against Tito. He aint Rocky! He should never be on PBS let alone HBO or even Fox. Taylor is still unproven to me and he has shown to get frustrated in the ring on multiple occassions which would lead to his demise against Hops. Tito would flat out KO him inside of 6. I think he needs to figth someone with a punch to get chin checked before he fights the big boys.
Steal cable...you people crack me up! :D aint that a bitch...go thru the trouble of stealing and the fight just doesnt live up to expectations?? Man, some things are just not fair! :D

Joppy is a disgrace to the sport! He should never be on TV again! All he did was show up to get paid and grab his balls! Taylor is the future at middle weight!!! It was hard for him to look great when Joppy was running for his life and clownning around!

Taylor KO's hopkins
Taylor gets ko'd by Tito
I got irritated with him for showing his ass like he did, but I try and see how frustrated he was. Taylor was completely dominating him...after the first 2 rd's I was actually starting to pull for the underdog, but once the 'show' started, and he started disrespecting Taylor by dropping his hands and all that nonsense I was wanting Taylor to knock him out! If Taylor had just opened up and not stopped throwing I'm thinking the ref. would have been forced to stop it ...I think he may have been glad to, at one point he did ask them something like "are either of you going to do anything" ..or something similar :o
Maybe he will take that payday and retire now ..one can only hope anyway :confused:

I fully agree. Joppy humilated himself by turning into a girly-man and running for the second half of the fight. Losing is fine, offering yourself for sodimization is not. Joppy should not be paid and he should never be given a T.V. date again. He should be booed everytime he walks into any public arena and parents should tell their children to avert their eyes. His performance was disgusting not because he could not win but because he did not try to win. People pay damn good money to watch these men fight.
Taylor came this close to putting the clown down. People are too hard on him who say he's weak cause he couldn't win by KO. Those uppercuts were brutal. Joppy's dancing was a joke and if he fought like he should have he would have been on the floor in 7 or 8.
Taylor's a smart fighter. People don't give him enough credit for that.
I don't think the reason he couldn't finish him was due to Joppy running, I just don't think Taylor could get the job done, Taylor is a good fighter, technically sound but I don't see what the fuss is all about, Eastman would beat him up, I think Strum would and given a weight shift so would Winky.
Joppy is not the fighhter he once was and the person who was saying in a previous thread that they never want to see Joppy in the ring again... well I think it might be your lucky day, certainly not on TV anyway.
Fuck Joppy! he has no heart, after that weak ass performance i never want to see Jop in the ring again, i knew he would lose but i thougth he was going to try and fight not justs show up and take a paycheck - running around the ring holding his ballz. Even though Taylor is overrated, u gotta be more than just an average pro to beat him. Tito will KTFO his ass, Hops will destroy him ( they have devastating power and more importantly, ACTUALLY THROW PUNCHES ). Taylor was lyin to himself when he said he's ready for Hops, a better test for taylor would be David Lopez, i'd really like to see this fight. Lopez is a tall middleweight and a devatasting puncher with good skillz, only trouble is i know the outcome of this fight - "Bad Intentions" forced to lean back.
the only reason Taylor couldn't finish him was because he was running. i didn't give taylor a chance. Joppy just quit fighting.
hell now...i mean jopyy got decent shots in on taylor..i think hopkins would break down taylor and had is ass to him with ko like he did to tito...
tito ko taylor fast for sure
hopkins can take all the MW in my opionion...if anyone is gonna give him trouble it would be sturm..but i still think he would beat sturm (even though i would root for the kid)..i think hopkins outclasses tito in rematch also..there isnt any fight out there including sturm and winky that can prepare tito for hopkins...hop is in a class of his own...tito needs to learn to box not just chicken jump around ring

Taylor did real well though he actually held back too much. It was sort of like Bojada fighting Jessie James Leija. He knocked down Joppy and shoulda went in for the kill. Joppy had nothing in him the entire fight. Luckily though Joppy couldn't turn it around as JJL did. Taylor is very schooled though needs to be more aggressive at times. It's the only thing I see him lacking and he let Joppy get off the hook in almost every round that he had something going. It shoulda been a KO last night. I don't see why not.
jack (FYI) take out dlh..he's a welter again..after hopkins handed his ass to him he went down...atleast its better then what tito did (retire for 2 years like a bitch)....i still like tito though..but i dont like extremem tito fans that think he is the best thing ever...there have been better PR fighter then him
tito ad pac fans are extreme about their guy...a lil to extreme really
oh and plus...joppy hasnt really ever been anything special..taylor shouldnt be to proud to beat him especially the joppy he fought last night
hell now...i mean jopyy got decent shots in on taylor..i think hopkins would break down taylor and had is ass to him with ko like he did to tito...
tito ko taylor fast for sure

If you go though the Ring rankings of Middleweights, you will see that there is not a lot there.
Middleweights
160 pounds
Champion: Bernard Hopkins
1. Howard Eastman
2. Oscar De La Hoya
3. Felix Sturm
4. Felix Trinidad
5. Robert Allen
6. William Joppy
7. Jermain Taylor
8. Maselino Masoe
9. Kingsley Ikeke
10. Sam Soliman
So if Eastman does not deserve the shot, who does?
I want to see Sam Soliman get knocked out by Hopkins, even though he doesn't deserve it, I would also like to see Félix Trinidad get stopped by Hopkins (again), especially since so many of his nuthuggers feel that he deserves a shot, because he beat a garbage ass Ricardo Mayorga, I would like to see Hopkins quickly do away with him just so Tito lovers can come back down to earth.
P.S. You can scratch #2 of your list. He's now a welter.
ya
Jermain taylor would've knocked out joppy if he threw more punches
my trainer told me tha worse thing to do in a fight is cover up
because u cover up, ur openings will be exposed
that's wat joppy did taylor threw 4-5 punches, then he backed off
