    If Hopkins Beats Taylor Tommorow...

    If Bernard wins tommorow I hope we all give him the respect he rightfully deserves. If at 40 years old he can defeat a hungry, young, fast and strong middleweight prospect thats incredible. If he wins...which I believe he will, I don't want people making excuses for Taylor. Even if Taylor isn't ready he is still a 26 year old fighter fighting a 40 year old fighter who has defended the middleweight title an astounding 20 times. Taylor has every reason to win but he won't because Bernard Hopkins is just that damn good.

    Prediction: B-Hop UD...after exposing Taylor's flaws rounds 4-12.

          Hopkins by decision. Jab, sneak right hand, ring intelligence, experience, inside rough house tactics. Hopkins will put on a clinic.

            If Hopkins wins again its just another B Hop win. Im pulling for Taylor but if Hopkins ends up winning .. just another victim of Bernards. Nothing new the guy has been doing it for years now.

              I also think Taylor will start early. As we all know, Bernard is late starter and Jermain will try to execute his plan in the early rounds, if that does not work, it will be Hopkins by UD.
