    Can Hopkins beat Trinidad in a rematch?

    I certainly don't think so, and plus has he deserved the chance to fight him. I mean in the past 4 years he has had 3 fights.

    hopkins will beat trinidad in a rematch

    trinidad deserves a rematch as much as robert allen or hakkar

    one sided fights that last longer than 8 rounds shouldnt have a rematch

    now if trinidad was able to do something in the fight i would think different

      No, I would say yes after seeing both of their last performances but Hopkins adjusts to his opponents style. So one minute he can look spectacular the next look crappy (but in a good way) The world will never when Hopkins ages.

        Hopkins has been slipping in the last few years. It will be more competitive the second time around but I think Hopkins will do enough to win a decision. Hopkins doesn't move as well as he did in 2001 so I don't see him put on another one of those performances.

            I agree it will be more competitive and Tito will probably go the distance but he will be able to get very little done because against a slick guy like Hopkins Tito will have his power disconnected.

            Tito better not worry about NArd right now...if Winky moves a lot in their upcoming fight then Tito is going to have a lot of problems.

              Most definately Hopkins can wipe the floors with Trinidad again. Even if Trinidad wins, it want mean anything, because people will say Hopkins is best his best.

                Winky is just a tune-up like Mayorga was...

                  Tito would beat Hopkins this time round, if Eastman can make Hopkins run away like a little girl then Tito would punish him.

                  IMO Hopkins is on the slide and should retire at the top, before someone who wouldnt have a chance 2/3 years ago KO's him.

                    Go ahead and compare Mayorga too Winky I could care less but you are obviously underestimating Winky Wright. If you think Winky is going to show off his chin too Tito like Mayo did then you are most likely wrong!

                    Your loyal Boruk thats good but there is no doubt that it has clouded your judgement when it comes to your brotha Felix.
