I mean I can count on 2 hands how many times he hit the 40 year old man flush in both fight combined. He is a much better athlete than boxer by far. Hops is not close to being fast yet land more flushes than a lucky poker player. Hops has no power yet Taylor could only see out of 1 eye after the fight. Not to take anythng away from Hops but he isnt the same Hops that beat Tito. I think Taylor needs atleast 4 fights to even have a chance against Winky. And who knows if he will beat the same after Hops landed so many power shots to Taylors noggin. He let an old man get off first in exchanges.. Thats pretty sad. Lacy kills him, Winkys makes him look ******. Sturm would beat him too but get robbed.
Im not impressed with Taylor at all

I think rather than waste my time debunking everything you've said point by point, it would be more economical to simply say this: Hopkins is a top-ten great. Enough said.
Remember this, too, the Hopkins that Taylor beat was the same fighter who beat De la Hoya, a top-fifteen pound for pounder at the time, and Howard Eastman, who was ranked number 1 at middleweight. So stop with the bull****. Barely beating an all-time great is still beating an all-time great.Last edited by whdempsey; 12-07-2005, 04:56 AM. -
well no one would be impressed with him if the Hopkins' fights are the only ones you've seen of him...
either way, he is young and has plenty of times to improve and impressComment
