    Hopkins/Taylor...The Headbutt

    What people are forgeting, which makes this fight very interesting, is that Taylor sufferd from a headbutt in the 5th round. On my scorecard I had hopkins wining rounds 5,7,8,9,10,11,12. According to my scorecard, Hopkins starting doing work when that headbutt came to be on taylors head. Did hopkins benefit a lot from that headbutt? Or was it not a distraction for Taylor. Im a little worried but im still confident Hopkins will win by UD. Anyone else have anything on this?

    i think the headbutt made hopkins turn it up a bit. but i really dont think it made that much of a difference. taylor was wild the whole fight and he was gased by the sixth round. taylor doesnt have the accuracy or endurance to beat hopkins. taylor will lose just like he did last time and hopefully the judges get it right this time.

      ....The headbut was huge. Someone has the GIF of it and it looks like a punch the way Hopkins launched his head into Taylor. I suspect that Taylor's people will be all over the judges this time to make sure that Hopkins doesn't launch his ugly ass head like a missile.
