Pavlik will be exposed by Hopkins!

[Spiegelo]

It's been a while since I've watched the first, but I thought he won the second one. I mean I can see why Calzaghe got the decision and beat Bhop. I thought Calz-Bhop was a fight that could have gone either way, but I definietly think the second fight should have gone to him.

Uhh 2nd fight? Against Calzaghe? I'm sure I'm misreading this..

[Spiegelo]

I don't think anyone could be exposed by Hopkins, he is an all time great and i doubt there is another fighter that is as crafty as he is and could imitate him. He just knows how to control everything and nullify/take away his opponents best weapons.

Even though it was obvious Mayweather was gonna toy with Hatton, I always seen that fight as Mayweather's homage to Bernard. That was a decent imitation, but he made it his own too. I see what you're saying though, he's definitely one of a kind. I think Cintron was doin his Bernard imitation against Maragarito the 2nd time around, but he is just two shades too close to white for that man. Who the **** told Emmanuel Steward that it was ok to try to teach him to shoulder roll?

2nd fight against Taylor.

As in Calzaghe did better then Taylor ever did against Hopkins and I can see why Calzaghe got the decision, while as Hopkins should have gotten the decision in both of the Taylor fights or atleast the second one. Sorry for not making this clear.

Oh ahahaha, yeah I'm sure it was clear it's just like 3:30am here and I'm a lil ******ed right about now.

Nah, it's 2:30 here and I'm pretty tired already. Understandable.

You gotta love Chico for that **** though. I mean it looked like Casa was in real trouble more than once, but he recovers way too fast as we seen from even ancient Casa against Katsidis. I don't think Corrales could have stopped Casa, but you know he meant it when he said 'ONE MORE ROUND!!!'

No doubt man, my man chico was one of a kind, R.I.P. He never had Casa "Out on his feet" like one of the posters said though. No doubt he was buzzed but after that he still made sure Chico run into his punches.

Yeah, Seems to me that Steward is telling all of his fighters to do the wrong thing lately. No offense because he is a great trainerl, but lately he has been off of his game. When Wlad was being hit by Thompson early in their fight, he told him to bring more pressure and put that weak chin at risk. I don't know what made him tell Cintron to fight with Margarito on the inside. That just gave Margarito his chances and he really tore Cintron up........again but this time it was actually a legit knockout rather than Cintron breaking down and crying.

The only way Pavlik can lose this, is if he gets badly cut or hurt by a sneaky head butt. The ref doesn't see it, and thinks it's caused by a punch, and so it's considered a TKO.

But as long as he doesn't get badly cut, I think Pavlik will become the first to stop Hopkins - B-Hop's corner will likely throw in the towel after Pavlik beats him up for 8 or 9 rounds.

B-Hop has quite a variety of illegal tricks, so even if he were age 53 instead of age 43 I would never be 100% confident in his losing.

Haha I would like to make a gif out of that one part where Cas was toying with him on the ropes and danced left to right like 5 times and Corrales kept walking in a straight line after him. Normally I'd consider that running, but it was so clear that cas was toyin with him. I can't even remember what round that was, it's probably been like 5 months since I seen that fight. The 2nd fight Chico seemed to improve his footwork a lot, but then the 3rd fight he reverted back into his previous state of marching into punches.

A lot of people are predicting knockout for pav but nobody will bet me on the knockout..
