    How can anybody respect your opinion if you score the fight like that.

      Neither fighter deserved to win but I had it 115-114 Hopkins.

      Hopkins 5,7,8,9,10 and 12
      Taylor 2,3,4,6 and 11
      I had round 1 even.

          Hopkins got robbed of the belt in the first fight....no question about it. The second fight is disputeable but it still came out to a draw. Taylor aint ****...I have no respect for him...he will not last as champion. By the way he really aint the champion anyway. He got a gift.

            Yeah, I agree with that, though rounds with such a low output could go to anyone.

            It's certainly Hopkins's own fault. While I agree he won the first he did virtually nothing in this one. That was £30 and 125m in points down the drain.

            Taylor being champ makes things interesting, because at least he'll fight and not just pot shot to win rounds.

                Winky will beat him in a very boring fight.

                      The decision could've gone either way, neither was overly impressive. Taylor continued to miss alot of his shots. The pro-Taylor crowd in vegas **** themselves everytime Taylor would throw a so-called "flurry" and i'm sure it "looked" good to the judges to give him some of the swing rounds. I gave it to Hopkins, who, to those that would look, obviously connected more.
