The first half of the fight was mostly Taylor's, but some of those rounds (the first for instance) were too close too call. I think Hopkins EXPOSED the ineffectiveness of Taylor's jab in the first half, and showed the world he (Taylor) just wasn't fast enough to catch him flush. Unfortunately, Hopkins just wasn't agressive enough in some of those early rounds. The last few rounds were very exciting, Taylor was definetely in trouble (almost out on his feet at one point). I guess one could argue Hopkins did more damage in 3 or 4 rounds, than Taylor did in 6 or 7, therefore Hopkins should have won, or the fight should have been a draw at worst.
