Hopkins isnt that type of fighter? I just saw some old tapes today. He isn't the aggressive type, he's a true boxer. Why are people picking him to knock out Taylor? I just dont see it now that I saw the tapes.
jermaine taylor will walk out with fight victorious i would be surprised if taylor knocksout bernard it wont be easy to but anything is possible.. i belive that this is gonna be bernards last fight and hes gonna lose it by a ko just watch and see taylor is prepared for this fight physically and mentally jermaine taylor is gonna be champ and he deserves it
Taylor wins by UD or late KO
Good anology. I wanted RJJ swinging and going for a TKO and I want Hopkins swinging. RJJ was too afraid to trade it up, I think Hopkins has more balls.
I get the same feeling about this fight as I did the last Tarver v. Jones. I wanted Jones to come out swinging but it didn't happen. I want Hopkins to come out swinging, but who knows. I know he usually fights a methodical fight, but I would like to see some action. Hopefully he learned from Jones and realized that a decision is not in his favor.
i belive hopkins will win this fight , i don't think taylor is a focused as he was for their first fight all the shit talking he has been doing its not him ....duva is been feeding alot of shit in his head ...hops is determined and his expirience will show in this fight he knows how to make adjustments and he will not make the mistakes he did in their 1st. fight
i disagree
taylor is just as focused if not more so
if hop wins its because he made adjustments and won more early rounds in this fight that the last
i dont think we will see a ko or tko, and i was bhop to win
but i have a bad feeling about it
\
Maybe because he had Taylor practically out on his feet holding on for dear life in the 10th round of the last fight ???
Taylor being knocked out is a possibility .
that's what i've been expecting the last time they fought..a ko win.Now, in the 2nd fight it will happen.I'm sure of that and i bet 2 bil for a ko win by hops in the late round... :D

He isn't aggressive but he can get knock outs with an acumulation of punches.

Thats the way I think most fighters would fight Taylor, but remember BHop against DLH? He took his time, even giving some rounds to DLH.
Did he drop his trainer? the same guy who tells him to stick the jab. I think Hops developed a chip on his shoulder and will be out to prove this young lion isnt ready to take over the pride.

Yeah, I thought he knew how to beat Taylor and potentially TKO/KO him but Hopkins reverted back to boxing.
I just dont see him trying to TKO/KO him and take the risk of getting hit back.

He liked DLH he did not like Trinidad and he does not like JT.

I predict B-Hop to come out more agressive first 5 rounds try and keep Taylor on his toes and get him weary for the second half of this fight.He might take rd. 6 or/and 7 off. 2nd half he is gonna throw bombs and keep Taylor off balance eventualy following up with a barage of punches to get a stoppage, from rounds 9 to 11 is my prediction.

I just have a feeling Hops is pissed. He was very close last fight in stopping Taylor.He will come out more agressive this fight, biggest factor will be Taylors inexpierience. 9th to 11th round tko for Hopkins!!
