More the reason why Hopkins vs Eastman should never be considered. Considering Eastman's loss to Joppy a few years ago.

Eastman would beat Taylor...Taylor is not ready. He's got an untested chin and heart. Dont throw him to the lions, he's got a baby girl on the way.

If you go though the Ring rankings of Middleweights, you will see that there is not a lot there.
Middleweights
160 pounds
Champion: Bernard Hopkins
1. Howard Eastman
2. Oscar De La Hoya
3. Felix Sturm
4. Felix Trinidad
5. Robert Allen
6. William Joppy
7. Jermain Taylor
8. Maselino Masoe
9. Kingsley Ikeke
10. Sam Soliman
So if Eastman does not deserve the shot, who does?

ya
Jermain taylor would've knocked out joppy if he threw more punches
my trainer told me tha worse thing to do in a fight is cover up
because u cover up, ur openings will be exposed
that's wat joppy did taylor threw 4-5 punches, then he backed off

P.S. You can scratch #2 of your list. He's now a welter.

hell now...i mean jopyy got decent shots in on taylor..i think hopkins would break down taylor and had is ass to him with ko like he did to tito...
tito ko taylor fast for sure
hopkins can take all the MW in my opionion...if anyone is gonna give him trouble it would be sturm..but i still think he would beat sturm (even though i would root for the kid)..i think hopkins outclasses tito in rematch also..there isnt any fight out there including sturm and winky that can prepare tito for hopkins...hop is in a class of his own...tito needs to learn to box not just chicken jump around ring

jack (FYI) take out dlh..he's a welter again..after hopkins handed his ass to him he went down...atleast its better then what tito did (retire for 2 years like a *****)....i still like tito though..but i dont like extremem tito fans that think he is the best thing ever...there have been better PR fighter then him
tito ad pac fans are extreme about their guy...a lil to extreme really
oh and plus...joppy hasnt really ever been anything special..taylor shouldnt be to proud to beat him especially the joppy he fought last night

Taylor did real well though he actually held back too much. It was sort of like Bojada fighting Jessie James Leija. He knocked down Joppy and shoulda went in for the kill. Joppy had nothing in him the entire fight. Luckily though Joppy couldn't turn it around as JJL did. Taylor is very schooled though needs to be more aggressive at times. It's the only thing I see him lacking and he let Joppy get off the hook in almost every round that he had something going. It shoulda been a KO last night. I don't see why not.

**** Joppy! he has no heart, after that weak ass performance i never want to see Jop in the ring again, i knew he would lose but i thougth he was going to try and fight not justs show up and take a paycheck - running around the ring holding his ballz. Even though Taylor is overrated, u gotta be more than just an average pro to beat him. Tito will KTFO his ass, Hops will destroy him ( they have devastating power and more importantly, ACTUALLY THROW PUNCHES ). Taylor was lyin to himself when he said he's ready for Hops, a better test for taylor would be David Lopez, i'd really like to see this fight. Lopez is a tall middleweight and a devatasting puncher with good skillz, only trouble is i know the outcome of this fight - "Bad Intentions" forced to lean back.
