Taylor vs Hopkins Preview.

[Manny_P]

His jab is probably the strongest, but doesn't mean it's better.

ya got me.


But even still, the power and the speed of Taylor will make the BIG difference in tis fight.

Once, Taylor feels Hopkins can't hurt him (about 3 rounds o sum shyt), it's DONE! Taylor will be constantly on Hopkins' ass and Hopkins will be too slow to counta back or hurt him to make a difference.



side note: Hopkins' last tough fight was wit that PR doo Tito. Tito might have been ta best at that time, but lets face it, Taylor is a betta all around fighta than Tito. Hopkins was hella younga back then.Hop's last 4 fights have been all easily predicted by UD. Taylor aint a welterweight mova to the higha weight. And last thing, the Fight Night 2 cova. nyahahahaha. All seriousness aside, Hopkins will KTFO Tayler late!

I love the people that say Hopkins has never been in with a real middleweight.

The undeniable truth is that it's actually TAYLOR who hasn't been in with a real middleweight threat. Honestly he hasn't beaten anyone worth a damn. Joppy didn't want to fight, Eduoard wasn't much of a prospect, Marquez was an old jr middle looking for a payday.

This fight is going to be a big chessmatch and Hopkins is the Gary Kasparov of chess mudda****as.

Taylor aint Tito, Taylor aint Allen, Taylor aint Joppy, Taylor aint de la hoya, Taylor aint Eastman.


Unless it was a Mayweatha skills or tactics (and SPEED) fightin in there, I might say Taylor would lose, but it aint. Taylor by UD!

taylor doesnt even deserve this shot at hopkins

[Parodius]

taylor has a good jab offensively but he leaves himself wide open on the right side almost every time he throws the jab. I also have su****ions of taylor's chin...

Don't worry, I don't think his chin is as bad as Roy Jones. Taylor actually said in an old interview, I was born with a good chin, this was like 3 or 4 years ago.

I guess Sturm deserves a shot for the title???

[RipTheJacker]

I can't believe people comparing Taylor to Tito. Tito was a legend, who has Taylor beat??. Does he have heart?? What's he gone do when the tide comes in and he realizes the water is deep??

more than de la hoya, but that's a separate argument what is taylor talking about when he says his chin is good? I don't care about what he thinks about his chin. as a young fighter, it's never been really tested. Still, i don't think that's the determining factor. Hopkins is too old to KO taylor. I think hopkins will break down taylor's will in some way, shoving, low blows, frustrate the kid with philadelphia tricks and win.

Man, I can't believe throwin lowblows, shovin and dirty cheat tricks are now big factors in deciding outcomes of fights.


I see Tayler breakin Hopkins' face is wut I see.

Actualy ***** boy Oscar did beat Strum, you can ***** about who won the fight, many of you europeans don't like us Americans bitching about Hatton's decision. So please stop bitching about Strum winning the fight. Taylor was asked in the interview about taking a good punch, Taylor is not a bragger. Taylor will beat Strum in his sleep. I actually respected Hopkins a long time ago, I'm not one of the new Hopkins fans. I like Hopkins, but I'm also a huge Taylor fan. I just think Taylor will use his Jab & power, also if he hurts Hopkins he is a great finisher. Taylor also is a great boxer, he can box & move with best of them. I've seen many Taylor fights & I know what I'm talking about.
