Bhop will win. I don't think he puts a violent thrashin on RJ, but he wins comfortably imo.

I'm starting to think RJJ is going to get beat badly by B-hop

I think the fight will be similar to Calzaghe vs. Jones, outcome wise
Hopkins doesn't throw anywhere near as many shots as Joe, but Roy is there to be hit these days, he just hasn't got the legs anymore... and with his pretty average defense Hopkins will be picking him apart, especially with straights down the middle
The only department I could see him outdoing Hopkins is exchanging on the inside, he's still got quick hands and proved against Lacy he can put combos together... but I think Hopkins will keep it on the outside and tying up when he needs to, with Roy backing onto the ropes regularly
After being dropped by the forearm shot, Joe was extremely comfortable with Roy's power... he could also see his shots coming from a mile away, something Hopkins will exploit more-so
Don't think Hopkins will do enough to get a stoppage, but a wide decision no doubt.Last edited by TRAVI$; 10-20-2009, 09:50 AM.

froch...come foward hands down slow as **** brawler with no technical skill(or any kind of skill for that matter) and just has heavy punches and a hard chin?

i think roy will badly beat bhop.. style matchup. roy is a really bad matchup for bhop. roy knows bhops style like the back of his hand, its by the book and predictable
i think casual fans pick bhop, real students of the game know roy has an advantage. it might be close.. but in no way is bhop going to get an easy win.
roy's gonna pull a PBF vs JMM
really.. is hopkins going to outjab roy?? is hopkins going to be landing counter rights? is hopkins going to be outhooking captain hook? is hopkins power going to scare jones? is jones' power going to make hopkins gunshy? can roy easily **** with hopkins in ways hopkins has never seen since their first fight?Last edited by Talon; 10-20-2009, 10:57 AM.

Wtf Hopkins like Froch....LMAO. His defense was just as good then as it was now, and he didn't get hit.
