Hopkins vs Taylor

do anyone of you hopkins haters want to put down 100 million points on this fight, just lemme know peace

i pick hopkins because of the expirience taylor is young and will feel the presure under the bright lights taylor will be a champion just not while hopkins and tito are around . hopkins will win a ud

im not sold on trinidad. so what if he beat mayorga.hell spinx beat mayorga so what. was that mayorga fight the first time you've seen trinidad fight or something? you know he's beaten more people, right? :rolleyes: anyway, taylor can OBVIOUSLY beat hopkins, but i doubt he will...the only way i see him winning is if he realizes that he CAN beat hopkins, and is agressive throughout the whole bout... just by looking at him i can tell he's intimidated by the whole situation though, and will try to fight pretty and outbox hopkins. my money's on hopkins to intimidate and beat taylor. hell, if hopkins had any type of power, id say it would be similar to margarito vs. cintron, and taylor will come into the ring terrified and cry like a baby when he loses. :bottle:

Taylor vs. Hopkins... Can't it be equated somewhat with fights like Tua vs. Lewis, Grant vs. Lewis, Tyson vs. Holyfield, or even Trinidad vs. Hopkins? In all those fights, alot of people thought the harder puncher would be able to KO the boxer/puncher, but it never happened...and I think the only way Taylor wins is if Hopkins shows considerable age. If not, Taylor will crumble like Grant on the big stage, and Hops will have the perfect victory to retire on...

Which probably won't be much longer, If I was Hopkins I would fight Trinidad and G. Johnson after Taylor and then retire. I don't think that Hopkins will fight anyone after he's bombed out by Taylor!

damn why couldnt it be in memphis

Of course Tito would lost b4 stepping to the ring...What would he gain beating that chump... sturm beat DLH, somethign tito hasnt done

I second that .... Taylor by TKO in 6 Could this be the fight where the great champ passes the torch to the young prospect? B-Hop has 20 title defenses, has never being hurt, layed down the Golden Boy and people are always hoping he gets kayoed.

We are talking bout Winky Wright, not Felix Sturm... :cool: ya your right if it were sturm tito woulda lost before he stepped into the ring

I second that .... Taylor by TKO in 6

If Taylor beats Nard, then we'll see Trinidad vs Taylor instead of Trinidad vs Hopkins II (if Trinidad beats Wright)... wow borikua actually said IF!!! tito beats winky!!!!! i dont know what hbo is thinking hopkins has only 1 mroe fight after this according to what he said. long term deal? what liek a 4 month one lol?

Hopkins always come to fight. He is always in great shape. never takes anyone lightly..... but Taylor is a beast. Strong and quick

If B-Hop loses to Taylor, it will be the begining of the end for him.

Hopkins only has a handfull of fights left, he has to fight top notch opponents on mega fights. He should give Tito a rematch next year and then retire.

Gosh, I hope that match happens. It will be exciting to see if Hopkin's greater experience is enough to fend off the younger, up-and-coming Taylor's assault on his middleweight title.

The local news here in Little Rock said yesterday that it was a done deal, so hopefully they are right. *fingers and toes crossed*

This better be accurate. This whole fight has been a jigsaw puzzle from the very start. It's almost like Hopkins was trying to bluff his way past Taylor through deceptive tactics. If this happens, Taylor is going to maul Hopkins. Taylor is a bigger version of Hopkins, just without the experience.

I will have a Little Rock house full of Taylor fans that night to watch. Can't wait!

Which probably won't be much longer, If I was Hopkins I would fight Trinidad and G. Johnson after Taylor and then retire.

This deal is for as long as Hopkins keeps fighting.
