Bernard "Soapy" Hopkins is as he says the American dream: like Goldman Sachs, he has made lying and cheating an art form. Gotta admire the stones of a PED user doing push-ups half-way through a match. Not to mention blatantly thumbing and headbutting his opponents. Bernard doesn't just cheat, he rubs people's noses in it and says, "What are you gonna do about it??" That's the American way.

Wlad by KO...easy...Comment

Hopkins style would require him to take some shots off Wlad in order to figure out his counters etc. He CANNOT take shots from Wlad.
Also his usual holding tactics would not work against Wlad as Wlad is far too big and strong to be wrestled by Hopkins
Result
Wlad by Brutal KOComment

Lol, I guess i'm deeply flawed then. I love watching a good cheater. Don't hate on the skills. Cheating is an art......kids these days think laces are for keeping the gloves on...
Now as for B-hop vs Wlad. B-Hop's a clever fellow, but I dunno if he has enough tricks in his bag for Wlad's consistent style. I wouldn't so cavalierly just count him out though mr Cow. He's a proven warrior, rapscallion, and a thinker. I can say this in B-hops favor. He's far more dimensional than Wlad. In Wlad's favor there are a whole plethora of well known reasons why he may win in a h2h.Comment

Bernard KO rd 6, kills Wladimir by liver shot.Comment

Itd be great if Haye or the Klitschkos can give this idiot permanent brain damage.
But BHop was too scared to even fight Adamek so I doubt this would ever happen.Comment

You can add me that list of nationalists. I don't claim America has better politics, or education, crime, manners, anything really but fighters. Since the 1860's we've beat the living **** out y'all. Now, i'm not saying I simply look at the flag and pick a fighter. I'm saying it's very hard to not be pround of our history of making champions. IMO when John Heenan drew with the great Tom Sayer a symbolistic torch was passed from the europeans to the americans. There is no other country with as many champions as America in today's boxing (Sullivan to present). We grew strong toward the end of LPRR, and have put out world champs steadily since queensberry started. Y'all have regained your fire here and there with some really great champions, Wlad being one of them, but to soil our champions is to soil yourselfs. Our pedigree fighters ( Greats trained by greats ) go back to yous guys. Even though they are completely different; is it even possible to have a Klitschko if a Marciano never existed? Is possible to have a Marciano with out a Jem Mace? The answer is no. the world of great pugilists is not that big, and the effect one has over a period shapes the future of the sport. Without your past accomplishments and champions we don't have our own, and without our past accomplishment and champions you don't have your present. I'm proud of our time in the ring, and y'all should be too. I'm happy to see a more global boxing world today, but still proud of of our special blend of lineage in the states. That is the historical and national drama isn't it? testing our brand against the worlds'. I'm happy when an american wins because of the lineage it represents. Just like i'm happy to see a slugger win, and ecstatic to see someone get a knock out that might remind me of another great knock out. I suposse my argument is symbolistic.Comment

Dywer thinks B-Hop and Tarver would have a good chance of beating Wlad.
