          This is an extremely dangerous fight. I expect Hopkins to be very tired in the later rounds, whereas Adamek will keep coming. Don't be surprised if he gets stopped and I hate to say that considering Hopkins has been my favorite fighter for years.

            Totally agree, am really surprised with the amount of people thinking 44 year old Hopkins is gonna walk through Adamek. This is a really tough fight and I would give Adamek the slight edge because of the age advantage and the fact he is the CW champ. I do hope B-Hop wins though

              This is a tough fight for Hopkins, If he carries the extra weight well he should win a decision.

                Indeed guys. Even i cannot understand why some people think a 44 year old Hopkins acting as a blown up CW will beat the younger, stronger and faster Adamek.

                No chance

                  I hope BHOP gets KTFO. Reality will probably have Bhop winning a decision 116 112. I want B hop to fight Chad Dawson.

                    hop is not a favorite with judges if it goes to the cards imo.

                      you don't think adamek is bigger, stronger and faster than pavlik?
                      He's not bigger, although he may be used to fighting at the weight. He is definitely stronger. Adamek is not slow, but Hopkins looked very quick against Pavlik. And nobody is as clever and tricky in the ring as old B-Hop.

                      I think Adamek's the best cruiserweight, and a better fighter than Pavlik. He may beat B-Hop, but if he does not, he will lose everything.

                      I think it's difficult for fighters to motivate themselves to fight old boxers. Valuev looked the worst I've seen him against Holyfield, and Pavlik didn't seem pumped up for Hopkins.

                      That being said, Adamek is a level-headed guy and the chances are he will be at his best for Hopkins. But if he does lose, he'll also lose all the respect and status he's gained.
