    If this is made before Hop retires or completely becomes gay with DLH, you got a bet. You just throw out a few numbers and I'm game. Plus I'll be 1.8 mil richer after this weekend because Miguel Cotto is going to KTFO Randall Bailey.

      Gotta give the nod to Hopkins because he is the naturally larger man out of the two. Although.....the gap has closed considerably since the last fight in which I though Trinidad stood about a 10% chance of winning (he woulda had to have landed a perfect singel left hook and ended with a 1 punch KO).

        damn you are right. Don king is getting older hopefully he will be on his way out soon.

          Don King will promote boxing until he is either banned or he dies, he just makes too much damn money too quit. Plus he is an ego maniac and always wants the spotlight.

              I don't see Trinidad having an answer for Hopkins' attack. People are really hyping Trinidad up again, ever since he defeated Mayorga. The fact is, Trinidad would have always performed that way against Mayorga, his performance wasn't based on improvement.

              I'd predict Hopkins to take Trinidad out earlier than last time.

                I think it is hard to call but I'm going with a Trinidad KO in the 9th round. Hopkins would have to fight perfectly again and I don't think he has it in him anymore. He would be overconfident from how easy his first fight was and would end up paying for it.

                  Hopkins is too skillful, Tito can't change his gameplan enough to capitalise on Hopkins wear factor, Hopkins again by either late KO or points. The only chance i believe Tito has if X tries to trade early and gets caught but since he is who he is and very rarely comes unprepared then he does the double

                    tito is allowed to use his illegal handwraps
                    but doesnt help him becuz he wont be able to land anyclean shots
                    hopkins picks tito apart and finishes him even earlier

                      Hopkins completely shut out Tito in the first fight, and has shown no signs of slowing down in subsequent fights. Why would the second fight be any different?
