    Hopkins/Taylor VS. Wright

    Is this a possibility?

    I’d love to see either fight?


    What do you think the outcome will be? And don't give me that Hopkins will KO Wright by 8th round thing, explain.your reasoning.

    Although I think Winky is kind of small for a middleweight :-(

    Now, it's on!

    I believe Hopkins will retire after these two fights. If he gets past these two fighters, then he really is, one of the best out there.

    Although I have a gut feeling that B-Hop will get past Taylor but not Winky. Taylor will risk himself with Hopkins with the possibility of getting KO'd. On the other hand, Wright is not a risk taker and I believe that he will be able to keep up with Hopkins' superior skills and win via close UD.

      well Bernard is not like Tito he has at least a little bit of brain. He would study Winky and find a weakness. Mosley couldnt do anything cause hes just too small and he gets discourge easly. Tito couldnt do anything cause hes 1 dimentional and hes dumb.

        I think Hopkins would beat WInky. Hopkins doesn't take many risks neither and I predict he would stand there with his guard up the whole time just like Winky does. I mean, somebody has to start punching first and Hopkins is too smart to do it first. This would be guarantedd ot be the most boring fight that could happen.

        As for Taylor, I think Winky would likely beat him with his jab and defense. Taylor is not patient enough to wait for Winky to take his gloves away from his head, which if you don't throw any punches at him, he usually never will. All he does is guard and counter. Taylor does have a good jab though and this could turn into a jab war. Once again, this would probably be another very boring fight no matter what.

          I too think Hopkins is too elite.
          He is very hard to approach and to hit..

            I think we'll see a Hopkins Vs. Wright fight. Question is wether or not Winky can take him.

              The question here is: Can B-Hop get pass Taylor first?

                i saw 1 flaw with winky in the tito fight, when he threw the left his left foot came up or off the canvas, a timed right hook would put him down alot.
