Hopkins VS Maskaev

[Coreano]

what about Tarver? could he have a shot at any of the heavyweights in your guys' opinions.

hop would win in a boring ud.
bernard wouldnt have to throw more than three punches a round because he would land all three of them and maskaev wouldnt come close to landing a punch all night. maskaev would get so tired of chasing hop around the ring that he would become an open slow moving target for a marksman. hop would land that lead right hand at will from the sixth round through the twelth.

tarver could beat maskaev.

[King Koyle]

I would favor Hopkins by decision....

I wouldn't favor Tarver over many of the "top dogs".Especially the one's with a lot of power.Like Peter or Klitchko!But I could see him giving guys like Toney some problems.Although I still wouldn't favor him over Toney.

i dont think so.......
i think hopkins exposed tarver

a h/w will destroy him

Nobody is going to pay Hopkins $10 mil. It's all a GB promotional stunt, nothing more.

Maskaev wins, Hopkins doesn't belong in the HW division...

[potatoes]

For an easy victory what Hopkins needs in a bigger opponent is a guy who is slow and doesn't move all that much. Maskaev fits the bill perfectly. Hopkins superior speed and agility will give him an easy win on points.

Hopefully Maskaev succeeds in defending his title so that the Hopkins fight would materrialize.
