    I think Roy will win, but not by knockout.

      That's why Roy needs to go out and fight like how he fought Tito with his hands up more then mix it up a bit more set things up by dictating the fight in the middle of ring. RJJ definitely doesn't need to be laying on the ropes even though his inside game has improved; cause that will give Hopkins more ways to do his dirty tactics.

        That's funny! Protect the back side of your head....that suposed to be a foul even though I think they gave Green the win what looked like a back of the head shot.
        Roy needs to protect that left temple area where he holds his left hand low. Tarver caught him there and it looks like Green was aiming there but got the back.

            Tarver landed on the right side of his jaw.

              Roy sould actually take this fight easy if Hopkings doesnt chicken out. Only thing Roy has lost a bit is his chin a perhaps some speed. But even at 95 Roy hits 100% faster and harder than hopkins. Also Hopkins does not have power at all so he will have no chance of ending the fight with a knockout win :-)
              Go Roy and do your last big win :-)

                Well same side rather. Left side if you are Roy, right side if you are facing Roy.
                Thanks for the correction.

                  No.... Tarver landed on the right side of Roys jaw.

                  Glen Johnson and Danny Green landed on the left side of Roys head.

                    I see the knockout vs Johnson recently it was similar to the Green one.

                    Tarver one was just one of those punches which can knock out anyone around that weight imo.

                    But i think Roy needs to protect that area better

                      Meaning Roy is not walking away if he gets knocked out again, or if this goes to a decision?:WTF??:

                      You've got nothing left to prove Roy, retire and await first ballot HOF status.
