    Does Jermain Taylor have the confidence to beat Bernard Hopkins?

    Does Jermain Taylor have the confidence to beat Bernard Hopkins? After his last fight he seemed very uneasy and almost to humble to take the title from a guy who hasn't been beat since 1993. I agree with Roy Jones he has have the attitude of that title is mine and theres nothing you can do about it. I think Taylor might fight to cautious against Bernard and if does that he will lose.

    If Taylor takes a few more fights(sturm and then Tito) and works on not backing up when someone jabs and polishes up a bit he will beat Hopkins i think. i keep hearin Hopkins would give him a boxing lesson, maybe but i think Taylor has some big advantages on Hopkins. For one he is much bigger (longer reach) and has power that will hurt Hopkins. He might move all night but eventually Taylor will catch him with some clean shots. Also youth is on his side Hopkins looked ok at best against Eastman.
