    I'm going with Cloud this time. Hopkins turned that corner one to many times. Part of me hopes I'm wrong.

      To me, it all comes down to what Hopkins has left in the reflex department. Cloud is basic, AWFUL and can be easily outboxed and confused. I also think his punch is vastly overrated considering some of the ancient guys who have gone yard with him. But Hopkins is old, inactive, coming off bad performances, and his chin is finally suspect after being dropped recently. If this was the Hopkins of even a couple of years ago I would heavily favor him to damn near **** Cloud out, but who knows what happens at this point.

        I'm a Hopkins fan, but I'm expecting Cloud to outwork him to win a decision. I don't see Hopkins getting KO'd, but he's just to over-the-hill IMO.

          Strange how everyone that has posted has said Cloud but Hopkins is winning the poll by quite a margin.

                ^^ Is this the twilight zone or something? The only threat from Cloud was his power, he was tailor made for BHop. WTF is wrong with y'all????

                    People think of boxing as a game of power and chins. It's a lot more to it.
