    Isn't Winky a little too small for Taylor?

    Stewart said that it would be a technical, boring fight.

      Why does everybody believe Winky is small. He suffered for a few years to make 154 because he is at the least a natural middlweight. Did you see the size difference between him and Tito? Even Hopkins wasn't that much bigger than Tito when they fought. Taylor would be bigger but not by a wide margin plus size doesn't really matter when you're as skilled as Hopkins and Winky.

          I can't see how anyone could have Hopkins winning either fight. Hopkins is my favorite boxer, but I dunno what the hell he was doin in there tonight. He went in with the same gameplan and got the same result. Taylor was landing the jab, throwing combinations, going to the body, throwing in the clinch. And Hopkins was pretty much goin one punch at a time, thinkin it was enough.

              How can we get a job with Golden Boy or HBO? I want to be one of those guys in the ring wit those VIP tags and who holds the flags and shows "moral" support for their fighter lolz. But yea will Roy Jones fight B-Hop next? I saw after the fight B-Hop lean over the ropes and say something to RJ. RJ just smiled, but i wasn't sure what they said.

                  Nah, bro, forget that age excuse. If your too old to fight a young gun, you shouldn't be steppin in the ring to compete with him. All that noise that Bernard was talkin and come fight time he again waits till the tail end of the fight to start tryin to fight serious. There's no excuses for this and to be real there wasn't any excuse in the first fight.

                    Its not an excuse its a fact, I mean think about what your saying. You think that logic applies to Larry Holmes' victory over Muhammad Ali. Muhammad was the biggest talker of all time. Or for that matter Michael Spinks' victory over Larry Holmes twice, where many thought that LArry won the fight and he was considered old at that point.

                    Age is not an excuse its a fact, and clearly Hopkins is not the fighter he once was.
