    It doesnt really matter much who beat Joppy worse. Taylor is good and could be great one day, but Hopkins is great right now and would hand Taylor an azz whippin. Maybe in a couple years when Hopkins is in a walker.

        I think people are underestimating Taylor he is young and learning really fast i think in a few fights he could be ready for bhop.

          hop will execute eastman and then show taylor the ropes in a decision
          win. maybe in a few yrs taylor would pull of a decision or a ko. but not anytime soon. i have seen taylor struggle against lesser opponents then hop. 20 defenses aint easy.

            Taylor is one of my favorite fighters (overall), but I think putting him in with Hopkins now will have the same result as Vargas vs. Trinidad and Reid vs. Trinidad...just not quite ready and was never able to recover.

              Hopkins will lose to Roy Jones, even now with Jones getting ko'ed.

                Hopkins will hands down beat Taylor because Hopkins and his team will be sure to get him ready for that fight. It's sheer briliance when I watch Hopkins fight at his best and only the best makes him fight his best.

                  Too bad he doesn't fight the best. You always criticize me for being a DLH fan, but Hopkins is doing the same thing. Hopkins is fighting smaller fighters and building his reputation from that. Whats the difference between DLH-Ruelas and Hopkins-Trinidad?

                      I think you need to take a closer look on who beat who's ass worst...Joppy got completely dominated in the Hopkins fight and lost every round in my book and his face speaks for the fight itself.

                      no u take a look...joppy out jabbed taylor for the first round...taylor got thrown off guard because joppy has that little weird lean back move
