Hopkins starting to fade and being real about it

[DLT]

I couldn't disagree more, but we'll see.

You disagree with what and what is you #4# list

[Atman]

I disagree that he's fading as much as you think he is. Obviously he's not as active as he used to be, but when he stops dominating his opponents, I'll concede that he's slipping significantly. Until then, I think he beats anyone from 168 down.

As far as P4P, I got Hopkins and Floyd at 1 & 2 and I really don't care enough to rank the others. PBF and Hops are the only ones fighting for the throne as of now.

uh-oh the first excuse for hopkins when he losses to tito ,he won't retire he already said he will probably fight the winner of tito-winky if he gets passed(which i'm sure he will)Eastman,if he wins that then he said he'll be looking for one more big fight,but if he losses then he'll probably retire,either way i was right hopkins is never moving up

Nice post, DLT. I think you might be right about Hopkins starting to slip a little. Although I believe that he will still get past Eastman. I think that that his overall experience, use of footwork and angles will bring him victory in his next fight.

i think that hopkins is setting a trap and that everyone who thinks he's fading is going to be surprised. hopkins is the master at making you think he's gonna do one thing and then come right back and do the opposite. he's know for leading people one way and seting lil traps. he's getting old , but he's stil cunning.....

DLT put this out there, so he can set up the argument that his boy Floyd deserves the #1 spot.

I give Eastman a better chance of beating Hopkins than Tito. I just get the impression that if Hopkins ever fought Tito, he`d beat him easy and win every round and avoid nearly all Tito`s big punches....wait a minute THAT DID HAPPEN!!

[jabsRstiff]

Trinidad is just a better fighter than Eastman, period.

B-Hop is retiring this year,
before he turns 41, but
until he does it he can still,
beat the **** out of anyone.
