Eastman vs Hopkins...Whats your pick and why?

[jack_the_rippuh]

unless hopkins looks 40...eastman wont win...eastman isnt that good..all he does is fight fighters from europe...taylor will destroy them both

Newsflash, Dino, not everyone's name is William Joppy..

Well, this is probably the most competitive fight Hopkins has had since Jones. We all know how good Eastman is. He can do it all, look what he did to McCracken? How can a fighter that size bend his body that way? Hopkins will know it and i bet he has trained hard. I think this is 12rds war with Eastmans fastastic work rate and iron jaw giving Hopkins hell. As long as Hopkins doesn`t age suddenly, i pick him to nick a close pts dec based on his experience and heart. And i garantee if Eastman is hit by a decent body shot, he won`t quit!

You people can't be serious. This has been Hopkins' dream to get 20 defences. Just because he's training elsewhere doesn't mean he won't stop Eastman late after winning just about every round on the cards..
That whole upset thing was so last year...let it go..
Hopkins by TKO in 10

Hopkins by ud. B-hop is the man, he has a good year left in him

[JaNnO]

never seen eastman yet...i hope he'll be a worthy opponent for b-hop.

I've seen loads of Eastman fights and he is one tough nut to crack. If B-hop does'nt get KOed, it's going to go the full 12 rounds. Then i would take Hopkins by S/D.

there are alot of crazy people on this site, hopkins hasnt lost in 12 years, the guy is always, always 100percent prepared and in shape, he has willpower and discipline unmatched by any other fighter, he will pick eastman apart and destroy him, if eastman is so good why hasnt he stepped up before? he fought one quality middleweight in a shot william joppy after tito killed him, come on, you really think hopkins would take this fight for short money if he thought eastman had a chance? no, cause if he lost theres no trinidad 2, theres no johnson or tarver fight or anything, hopkins by spectacular 10th round kayo

[tracylee]

the worst happens from the curse. hopkins will probably get ko'd the way jones did the first time. i really wanna see hopkins get to 20 defences, hope he's focused as always. can you imagine if eastman walked away with all four middleweight belts in one night.

No, that is too hard to imagine! Not impossible, not at all...just weird! Eastman may be a deserving PERSON (I have only heard good things about the type of man he is) but as a fighter Nard is just so much more talented that I would have to go with him on this one. Eastman is one of those that is good for an upset (if I remember correctly) but alot is on the line for Hopkins with this big 20 and all, so he'd be blowing it BIG TIME if he didnt take Eastman serious...deadly serious at that...just my opinion, though I'm not exactly a big Hopking fan, but for his age and everything, I'd like to see him win this defense..its an important 'career' statement, especailly cause of his age. (How I hope that makes sense )
