another walk in the park??

Taylor will Take hopkins into the 10th round and floor him twice, the second of which sends hopkins to the canvas hard. 1............2...........3...........4............ 5.....hopkins reaches for the rope while trying to get his mouth piece.......6........7........looking dazed he tries to stand up right.............8........9....still on one knee, hopkins looks at taylor, and for that split second everyone realizes that hopkins is acknowleding that he is a beaten man............10....It's over... taylor being the man that he is, walks up to hopkins and and places his hands on his gloves and thanks him for being a great champion and for giving him the opportunity to fight for the title. He then extends an offer for a rematch to which hopkins naturally agrees to. Two months later hopkins decides to announce his retirment. Slowly he fades out of the lime light. Then two years later Bernard Hopkins joins the crew of HBO boxing. With his ability to verbally exchange with other men he will make for a great announcer. Hell maybe he will work with roy jones. I'm down for this

Taylor has not even been a top 10 middleweight... Hopkins can look just as good as he does against his type of opposition...

Misguided people. Did anyone else see the eastman fight. This was supposed to be a walk in the park for hopkins. Look what happened. Yes, he did win, but for the first time in history bernard started to actually look his age. Rather then assert himself early, he had to wait for eastman to finally start to fight into his style. He couldnt force him like he normally would. Eastman wasnt getting beat up until the fifth round. And it wasnt because hopkins was doing the damn thing, it was because eastman wasnt doing a damn thing. Its kinda like the movie scarface Hopkins and tony come from the prisons. They started out as jack shit and had to deal with fucked up deals, fucked up bosses, and fucked up money. They both slowly start to work there way to the top. Each day becoming more trecherous then the last, yet much more rewarding then the last. One day someone tries to take down their names (Frank, Tito). They have a clash, and in the end they are left standing. Now that they have it all to themselves they start to get greedy. More money, more fame, more power. After a while they start to lose that hunger, that zest for what got them there. They both start to get sloppy, careless, and OLDER. They have this feeling of invincibilty, like no one can take them down. So instead of working hard they start to ride on just there name. That feeling of invinsibilty starts to make it were they dont show respect where respect should be shown. In the end they cross the wrong person. and yes just like in the movie they will both go down in a blaze of glory. "You fuckin' wit me, you fuckin' wit tha best" Taylor is younger, stronger, faster, hungrier, and better then most give him credit for. Taylor is Tony and Hopkins is Frank. "Mano, shoot that piece of chit" Taylor will Take hopkins into the 10th round and floor him twice, the second of which sends hopkins to the canvas hard. 1............2...........3...........4............ 5.....hopkins reaches for the rope while trying to get his mouth piece.......6........7........looking dazed he tries to stand up right.............8........9....still on one knee, hopkins looks at taylor, and for that split second everyone realizes that hopkins is acknowleding that he is a beaten man............10....It's over... taylor being the man that he is, walks up to hopkins and and places his hands on his gloves and thanks him for being a great champion and for giving him the opportunity to fight for the title.

Taylor Wins By Split Decision taylors muscles are too big to go the distance with b-hop dude.. why can't you people understand that Taylor has only been the distance with pussy fighters......a washed up joppy....sam hill...grady brewer...marvin smith..antonio baker..he couldnt even fucking ko grady brewer..and grady was ko'd by supposedly a much lesser puncher than taylor, a guy named Jose Luis Zertuche...now, revise the fuckin prediction.. steward is out of his fucking mind for saying taylor will win vs hopkins, not sure why hed shit on his credability like that. there's an old saying 'Don't shit where you live', ie dont shit next to the fucking tent where you are camping out, or burn a bridge or fuck up your reputation on the subject of your life's passion...and emmanuel has shat where he lives

I think that this fight with jermaine taylor might be another walk in the park for hopkins, he might just box him for 12 rounds and win it a very boring fashion....I hope taylor makes it interesting but the kid is still a kid. What can Taylor do to make this fight a fight?? You could be right but didnt you also say it will be a walk in the park for Gatti vs Mayweather??

i would love to see hopkins drop taylor. i dont know if its gonna happen though. taylor is really sharp

this is a tough one. it has the makings for a taylor upset
