Hopkins is talking very tough now but when the bell rings we will once again see the timid old man throwing 10 punches a round for the first 5 rounds (he is like me back in college with all of the hos...he's afraid of COMMITMENT)
All Taylor has to do is throw 35 punches a round for the first 5 and he is going ot have a nice lead...
So, basically Taylor needs to improve in the second half of the fight...all he needs to do is split those rounds and the fight is over.
Hopkins is gonna talk trash and then the master is gonna come out and boar us to death again....at least come out fighting if you are gonna have an ax in your hand cutting Jermain's head off.
Let your hands go Bernard...and if you refuse to do so until round 6 or 7 then I hope you get jobbed again.
But, if you do in fact wait like you did last fight I would not count on Taylor being as weak as he was last time...for him to be weak will mean you will have to put some real work in early in the fight and I just dont think you have it in you.Comment

This could be true but I think Hopkins will be much more aggressive this time around and Taylor seems alot ****ier than last time which can lead to his Getting KTFO as we clearly saw Hopkins can hurt him when he gets aggressive.I doubt Taylor can KO Hopkins but he is getting old you never know.Originally posted by scapHopkins is talking very tough now but when the bell rings we will once again see the timid old man throwing 10 punches a round for the first 5 rounds (he is like me back in college with all of the hos...he's afraid of COMMITMENT)

yes, he rulez by far...i think thats kinda funny. Best stuff of his yet..i didnt agree with the flag burning,that was outta hand, but **** Taylor, he has no respect of the greatest, he talked too much **** for a title holder that got handed to him..by a huge payoff to Duane Ford, once again, i cant wait till his book comes out titled.."how to destroy a great legend"Originally posted by raesaadHopkins rules........Comment

Talked too much ****? ARE YOU SERIOUS!?!?! Hopkins gave Taylor absolutely no respect before their first fight and all Taylor did was give the old man respect. Then Jermaine walked in to the ring and beat Bernard's ass. What is it with you Hopkins fans? You cry more than anyone I have ever seen!Comment

In the first 6 rounds of the fight Taylor did show little respect for Bernard and Bernard showed a ton of respect for Taylor.
Obviously things drastically changed but I cant see Nard coming at a fresh Taylor early in the fight, Taylor will have a very sharp jab early on and as he did in the first fight he will be winging that right hadn with BAD INTENTIONS.
I know the right never really landed but it was thrown with the kind of ummf that let Nard no not to come in and fight and for a long time in that bout he did just that...not fight.Comment

Beat his ass huh? Wow those were some pretty gnarly drugs you took before you watched the first fight weren't they?Comment

the hell dude, calm down... alot of boxers use objects of their opponents to trainOriginally posted by Martin (Top Knowledge)Hopkins is a F**kin' idoit!... What the hell is he doing?...
He's got a severed head replica of Jermaine Taylor and he's pretending to bury it?
... What is his problem? Is this his idea of humour?
I remember a couple of years back he set fire to the Puerto Rican flag and stamped on it in front of 1000's of Puerto Ricans... Now look at him!
The sooner boxing is rid of him the better!... I'll be cheering for Jermaine!
and you're gonna tell me after all the diapers, baby toys, elvis impersonators, this is really that bad?
My lord, Hopkins is coming for Taylor come December 3rd. Gonna make him quit boxing and become a ********** just like the poster. jk Taylor ryders, im sorry, supporters

I cannot wait for this figt either. The first fight was a bit of a disappointment for me...seeing as how Hop wasn't active enough and Taylor did absolutely noting in te way of throwing a meaningful punch.
If Hop fights this fight like he fought the first then, like scap already said, I hope e gets jobbed again. I like Nard a lot but theres only so much waiting around you can do with another fighter.
I don't exactly hate Taylor but I do hate some of his fans that act like he really won tat fight by beating up on Hopkins with significant punches (which e didn't). The first bout should have been a draw but I hope this installment has a clear-cut winner.Comment
