    Comparing one fighter to another is a big mistake

    Especially if you're into betting.
    Never think that Popkins vs Joe will end up like Diaz-Campbell, that is Diaz being Joe, the volume puncher and such.
    Joe knows how to adapt, he's got the skill, the will, the heart to beat the living **** out of Popkins.
    You will all see.

    hopkins is very good at makeing things aquared,
    calzaghie looks good againts guys who stand infront of him, like lacy and kessler.
    he beat bika but the fact that bika is aquared, made joe look bad.
    What makes you think that he will beat the **** out of the guy who is kind at makeing things aquared???
    he might win it, if he does its going to be very close, how can you possably say thats beating the **** out of some one?

      Someone was saying Popkins will neutralize Joe the same will Campbell did.
      That's so wrong because it's a totally different fight, different scenario, different styles, different fighters, everything is different.
      You'll see, Joe can even force a stoppage.

        Bernard will rough Joe's ass up. He might not knock him out but Joe will look like a different person after the fight. Bernard knows what he needs to do.

        And of course he'll win.

          look at the past 4 guys joe has faught. None of them are movers, they are there to be hit, he hit them solid many times but only managed to ko manfredo(in a fight he was going to win but it was a fast stoppage.) if he couldnt KO guys who were in front of him takeing his punches why would he be able to KO a guy he wont hit solid, he might beat him by work rate but no way this fight doesnt go the distance

            "Bernard will rough him up", right...
            And Joe will just stand there.
            Joe is pretty good himself at roughing up if you haven't noticed.
            I know you want Popkins to win by heart but you have to look at the facts.
            There is a reason will Popkins will be the underdog.

                I read your posts, I agree with you for the most part, if you think Popkins will win though, I'd have to disagree with you.

                  every body has there opinion, and i dont give **** to people for having a diffrent out come for a fight then me,
                  i do belive that there is no way this fight does not go 12, if the fight is in the USA there will be no early stoppage, and if cal wins its going to have to be in workrate, because i dont think he has the power to KO hopkins, and hopkins is to mentaly strong to crumble, under a flurry of punches

                    Of course, I don't really expect a stoppage but I think Joe can do it. It's possible, anything is possible in boxing.
