    I'll bet you everything I own. However I highly doubt Tito will even take a rematch with Hopkins. He was so scared mentally from the last fight he left the sport completly

          Tito Vs Wright, good fight. Hopkins Vs Tito, waste of our time, we saw this fight and in retrospect realizing Hopkins was so effected by the change of date due to 9/11, i think Hopkins will perform so much better next time out, he`ll have a bit more juice on the jab and probably stop the Pueto Rican in 8rds. Then Hopkins could target the winner of the Tarver Johnson rematch or maybe the light middleweights. The one thing that has upset me is that Hopkins is forced into these rematches with fighters who he gave one sided beatings to ( Echols, Allien, Trinidad etc) I want a fresh challenge for Nard, he has earned it!
          yeah, tito vs winky would be a good fight. and yeah, tito vs hopkins would be very different. tito out in 8 rounds, i don't think so. it would be more exciting than the first and i think tito pulls it out!! hopkins move up past 160? yeah ****ing right!! not happening!!

                First of all this have been a great thread guys.I'd like to give my personal opinion as well.Why are so many people underating Mayorga,a guy who beat Forrest 2/times who beat mosley two times who beat De La Hoya two times(controversial).Then if he is just a blow up welter wheight then Hopkin's biggest wins were against a blow up welter weight and a light weight warriors who were searching greatness????As far as Tito/DLH fight I thought it was a draw,no way in the hell Oscar won the first 9 rounds in a row just watch the fight without volume and be as objetive as posible,may be Oscar could have done a better job toe-to-toe he have a great chin and abilities to beat tito and vise versa.
                Well as far of legasy I don't think hop legasy is that great copared to oscar and tito.Almost 19 defenses,yes of course,against who??? allen echols,Mercado .May be the lack of big names on all those fights were the reason of his late startum.Just think about it, the only big wins of nard were against tito and DLH.DLH and Tito opposition on the lower weights were far better than hop's.DLH had fought against the best in a lot of weight classes as well tito's.

                Lets be honest,if wasn't for the victories over tito and oscar who will be hopkins today,an unknow boring fighter who did 20's defenses against lesser opponents.Don't get me wrong nard is a guy who came over all odds and have what it take to beat either oscar or tito at 160 but this is boxing all can happen.Just my humble oppinion and if you ask me I'm fan of all those boxers(DLH,Nard,Tito Mayorga etc.)Just my oppinion based on the facts.

                    It is the victories aghainst every middlesweight he has faced since June 1993 that make Hopkins so great. No one has given him a comptetitive fight. What has Trinidad done in REMATCHES to suggest he`ll do any better? Nothing, because he has never had a rematch.
                    Hopkins dominated Tito. And of course Hopkins was more effected by Sept 11th than Tito was. It was his country that was attacked, not Pueto Rico! Tito didn`t give two ****s just as long as Don King paid him. I was routing big time for Hopkins first time, since America had been attacked, we needed a big American victory over a foriegn threat to boast the esteam of the people. I will always remember Hopkins after KOing Tito holding the American flag and chnting USA USA! He didn`t just fight for himself, he fought for America, America beat Trinidad that night, it showed that they have been down but it would get up and prove the impossible and KO that tit guy!
                    That sort of heart can not be discounted. Hopkins also showed he was so much the better fighter!
