    hopkins vs paul williams

    i really like hopkins in this one. i think he is the perfect foil for williams lack or technique and over reliance on throwing 120 or so soft punches per round. unlike calzaghe williams cannot control distance or timing very effectively and i see hopkins winning a decision, possibly schooling williams as he did pavlik if paul isnt on top of his game that particular night. (hypothetically speaking the fight is at 168.)

    apparently bernard is like a vampire, the older he gets, the stronger and better he becomes... when hes 50 he will be taking on young lions in the CW and HW divisions... outboxing them with his legendary skills.

          ****** Question, Hopkins is the better boxer here and Williams will be the smaller guy for a change.

                  But lets be honest, Quintana is no Hopkins. I think that the first Quintana fight caught Williams offguard and he thought it'd be an easy defence and to an extent I think Williams didn't put in the necassary work as he did in the 2nd fight.

                  However, it did expose flaws and Hopkins even at this age could expose them as he's certainly better than Quintana.
