Eastman vows to KO Hopkins!

[trinidadpr87]

Middleweight title challenger Howard Eastman says he's going to knock out Bernard Hopkins and deny him his record 20th world title defense when they meet February 19 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. "I'm very serious about what I do and say and I am telling you I will knock him out in five rounds," Eastman told Sporting Life. "I don't share the view that Hopkins is the best fighter in the world today for one second."
What do you think about his comments.

i think BHop is unstoppable and Eastmans defense is weak..

Definitely a case of one's mouth writing a check his body can't cash!

I for one am shocked and appalled by the Brit's comments...to say you are going to physically knock a man unconscious is not ethical and I do not support that kind of human being and I hope no one on this site condones those comments as well, absolutely disgusting!

Eastman's a good fighter, but to say he's going to knock 'Nard out is really reaching, it's just a bunch of hype like Danny Williams did before he fought VK.

[dansweeney]

he is trying to build hype for the fight, he knows he isnt gonna win, what has he shown to anyone that he could beat one of the best middleweights of all time? is he better than trinidad? hell no, trinidad kayo's his ass, hop will technically beat him down like he does the rest of them.

That's pretty much the way I see it going down.

Not a damn thing that I know of, I guess they figured he was a safe 20th defense for 'Nard.
