Adamek will KO Hopkins
Collapse

I can't believe Hopkins' critics are still doubting his greatness, and even picking Adamek, to KO the wiley ole' veteran. Hopkins is rarely ever caught clean on the chin, and when he has been, he's shown a pretty solid chin, and is able to take punches flush when he has to. (See : Trinidad, Tarver)
Let alone the fact that he's never been seriously hurt, or even close to being stopped in his entire professional career.
As for Adamek being the bigger, stronger guy, see: Pavlik, Tarver.
Hopkins outboxes the technically flawed Adamek, takes his Cruiserweight title, and walks off into the sunset a 3 division World Champion and All Time Great.
Adamek will get schooled like Pavlik. There will be alot of clinchin, dirty fightin and B-Hop will mess up Adamek's game. Also, I see that sneaky right straight gettin threw
Anyway, I want B-Hop to beat Adamek and then Valuev
4 Division Champ

I'd like to see him a 4 division Champion as well, but 3 is cool with me. Honestly I figured we'd only get the two, as I thought he was about to announce retirement sometime this year. But the Cruiserweight strap seems to be calling him name, and I'm thankful I get to see my boy mix it up one final time.

I find some of these cats straight up ******ed. Adamak probably wouldn't land more than 5 flush shots the entire fight. I much rather see him go for an alphabet strap at HW though. Adamek doesn't bring peanuts to the table.I can't believe Hopkins' critics are still doubting his greatness, and even picking Adamek, to KO the wiley ole' veteran.

I know people don't like it, but I think it's hilarious whenever Hopkins fights dirty.
Hopkins 101 teaches:
Elbows / Forearm Shivers
Tape to a fighters open wound
Back head shots
Headbutts
Low Blows
Distracting the Ref
Feigning injury
Facial Whiskers to an opponent's eyes
Shoulder Checks
Backhands
Cheap shots
Hitting after the bell
Hitting after the Ref says stop
and so much more.
I mean, yeah it's illegal, but it's great stuff.Last edited by Madvillain; 02-28-2009, 01:22 AM.Comment

Hopkins would probably have to travel overseas to fight Valuev, and that could spell trouble with Valuev's ties to the shady end of boxing. I'd love to see 'Nard as HW Champ, but not at the risk of him kicking Valuev's ass, and then getting jobbed on the cards, ending his career with an official loss to a loser like Valuev.
****, I can tell you right now I'd straight up hang my skinny ass in my closet if that ever happened.Comment

Give me any example of Hopkins backhanding someone, low blowing someone, putting his tape in a fighter's wound, or using what little bit of a beard he has to rub into an opponet's eye?
You have all the time you need, starting, now.Comment

Chill the hell out, it's a joke. Though if I remember, he did throw some quick low shots on Calzaghe whenever they were tied up.Comment
