    Unless it becomes apparent that "father time" has finally caught up with Hopkins in the first 3 rounds, I see Hopkins sticking and moving, pot-shotting Wright to outpoint him in a unanimous decision. It should also be noted that Bernard Hopkins is my favorite fighter since Marvin Hagler, so I could just be going with my heart on this one.

    I just think Hopkins being the naturally bigger man, will use his rough-em-up style to outpoint Wright.

        winky has been hit more in his last few fights as hopkins alluded too, but winky isnt a volume puncher so it is going to make the fight easier for hopkins to set the pace and get the fight right where he wants it.

        winky is better than tarver and poses a lot more challenges and is the fresher between the two. i see winky keeping the fight in the center of the ring plodding forward and hopkins using angles and picking his shots. winky is going to be set up all fight long for hopkins lead right hand, even though wrights left hand will be open, i don't see winy ripping it off as effectively as hopkins.

        both these guys have a ton of experience and both a top notch fighters, how ever uses more of their experience and guile coupled with proper training and strategy will win the fight and i see hopkins as the smarter of the two to be honest.

        i see hopkins winning the fight 116-112.....in a entertaining fight.
        Good stuff.


        I have Hopkins to win.

          Winky outworks him to a close decision. I see Hopkins trying to potshot and Winky throwing a lot.
