    i like hopkins because he's going to quit regardless so he might just lay it all out on the line and go for broke.

    but i see the same thing in both fighters in this fight, both are going to be afraid to pull the trigger and let the leather fly to be really affective against one another.

    Tarver could've easily stopped Roy in their last fight but he was not willing to let his hands go like he should......

    overall i see this fight being boring, sad to say.....


    i want hopkins to win though..........anyway he can...

          Tarver is bad for fading late in fights, but does Bernard have the gas in the tank to tire him out?

          Doubtfull. I don't know whay Hopkins doesn't just retite.

              I think I would lean towards Tarver to win that fight because of what has happened with these two recently.

                my opinion for this one would be Hopkins decision (then again, i just posted an article calling Tarver a joke, so i'm guessing most saw this coming )

                  I don't think Bernard has the stamina or strength to get a win over Tarver. I know Tarver fades late too, but I can't see Hopkins making him pay for it. He wouldn't be able to sit there and try and get him out of there in the late rounds...

                  Tarver would probably take a close decision, but I'd root for Nard.
