Why does every fighter Hopkins takes apart ala Tarver, Pavlik, Tito feel like he can't do anything it's because Hopkins is a great boxer

These guys (Loew, Graham, etc) don't understand why they call boxing "The Sweet Science". It is a sport of angles, geometry, physics and inches. It is a thinking man's sport.
Yeah, Kel, you bet Jermain Taylor. JT was there to be hit. But BH is gonna hit you and will be vapor by the time you want to return a punch.
Yeah, Kel. you are stronger than him. But when you get inside, you find yourself getting hit and muscled and you don't understand why.
You can't just rely on speed. Or strength. Or size. There will always be a bigger, faster or stronger guy. You have to THINK in there. You have to learn from the legends ("respect the wisdom of those who have been there before"). That is why I love guys like Casamayor, or Mayweather or Toney so much.

Fixed Fight?
Hats off to Hopkins for one hell of a performance but Kelly barley threw anything. How does a 26 year old man get outworked by a 43 year old man? Both guys where in shape and Pavlik fought in an uncharacteristic fashion. I take nothing away from hopkins but when I do the math it doesn't add up. Pavlik says they had issues...hmmm issues with who and what? It all smells fishy to me but then again why would anyone want to fix this fight?Comment
