Hopkins Versus Eastman, your picks please.

Yeah, Hopkins is far too sly to get caught and will win this by UD.

Eastman will be fairly successful, early on. He'll get solved, & slapped around, down the stretch. Hopkins wins a comfortable decision.

hopkins will win the UD but i think eastman will be KD once. hes been down b4 but he has the will to go on like he showed against joppy. infact i think he knocked joppy down so hopkins with an ez decision (117-111)

Nard is too smart for him. That pretty much says it all.

This fight is an easy decision for Hard Nard. Eastman is a very good fighter, but he does not have the necessary power or boxing skills on the inside for Nard to worry about. Nard will work him in the trenches and begin to slowly punish Eastman, starting in probably round 4 or 5. Somethingalong the lines of 118-100 or 117-111 for the champ.

I think hopkins will dominate eastman pretty easy. Hopkins is a level above eastman, i mean hopkins dominated joppy easily while eastman dropped a disputed decision to joppy. i think that if hopkins hasn't slipped he will dominate eastman, and win by easy UD. Basically. Hopkins will take over the fight around the fourth or fifth round, and dominate the second half of it to win a 118-110 type decision, if not a complete shutout. Eastman's a strong middleweight with a good chin and some pop, but he doesn't have particularly quick hands and he's there to be hit.

I've only seen Eastman against Joppy, he seems like a decent fighter but Hopkins should take him apart easy and get the UD.

Hopkins UD, but i wont be suprised if Eastman KO's Hopkins.

eastman ko 8 or 9

about the comment saying hopkins is happy, he looked the same way before the de la hoya fight. he had nothing bad to say to oscar, and he was well behaved and happy the whole time. and he still beat his ass. hopkins ud12

Hopkins with an easy win.

hopkins but this fight will be boring.

Hopkins by UD. This has the makings of a twelve round fight.Eastman will always go the distance but Nard is too smart for him.

Who do you pick to win this match up. How and in what round will the victor win, or will it be a decision? Hopkins by very wide decision, or late stoppage.

I think hopkins will dominate eastman pretty easy. Hopkins is a level above eastman, i mean hopkins dominated joppy easily while eastman dropped a disputed decision to joppy. i think that if hopkins hasn't slipped he will dominate eastman, and win by easy UD.

Hops by a 3-round UD. Eastman will give better than most people expect, but the result will be the same.

Hopkins will win, but I think it will be a tough fight for him.

I'm sad to say it but Hopkins UD by 3 or 4 rounds probably. The only way I can see Eastman beating him is if he sets a really fast pace for 12 rounds, but that's not really his style and he's no youngster himself....unless Nard has slipped a bit with age, which is hard to tell as he's not been tested for quite a while.

this is a tough fight for hopkins as well as for eastman, but i see hopkins taking eastman into the deep end and drowning him. serious, he's too smart, too skilled, and overall a better fighter, eastman is a game challenger, but when you look at there past fights, hopkins has fought better fighters then eastman has. hopkins has fought guys with better records and guys who has fought other guys with good records. the only person eastmans fought is joppy, a guy that has fought on the world level, and hopkins destroyed him......flat out. eastman is a very good fighter, but hopkins is a world beater, there is a huge difference, even if hopkins give a few rounds up, he is going to win clearly. eastman has a good chin, but lets see how he handle the full body , head to toe assault...hopkins 10 rnd tko......20 D's locked down history is made..love him or hate him , it's the way it is.........

Hopkins will ko eastman late maybe round 10.
