    If Hopkins beats him and the judges rip him off a second time I will officially stop watching boxing and put all my money into viewing Mixed Martial Arts. I am this disgusted by bad decisions in boxing over the years.

      Bert Sugar was on TV the other day talking about how Hopkins won that fight and how the judge who gave Taylor the 12th round needs a seeing eye dog...it was hilarious.

        its true, taylor was ready to go in that round. it looked like he was about to fall asleep. if there was one more round in that fight hopkins would have put jermain on his ass.

          I feel that the fight will have the same outcome. This is how it will go. Bernard Hopkins will win the fight in all actuallity. However he will loose the fight to the judges. In the last fight Hopkins won or at least had a draw. In this fight he will win again but he will loose a decision to the judges. Unless Hopkins knocks Taylor out the judges will give it to Taylor. In the eyes of HBO it is better to give Taylor the decision as he is their future and he has the money behind him and a lot of time left in boxing. Hopkins is on his way out and he is not the most liked figure by the politicians of boxing. (But then again anyone who goes against the grain and doest buy into groupthink is not well liked by the masses. Why do you all think that myself, Bozo_no_no, Diego_fuego and a few others out there are some of BS most hated posters?)

            this is a good point. but the thing that hbo is missing is that taylor is not going to bring them money in the future. taylor is to big to make 160 much longer and he will get beat around when he moves up in class. taylor doesnt have a lot of time left in boxing because he wont be able to compete with the likes of jeff lacy. he will get beat up a few times and fade away.

                The judges ripped off Hopkins giving Taylor the win, yes I agree with that.

                  We will see tonight, Hopkins was terrible last time out. Taylor deserved the win.

                    Hopkins had Taylor hanging on for dear life in the 12th round and one of the judges still gave it to Taylor. That 12th round decided the winner. Hopkins got ripped off and judging from the polls most boxing experts including Bert Sugar agree.
