    Smith is my slight favorite to win, but I really wouldn't be surprised if Hopkins pulls out a W as long as he stays disciplined.
    same. i think the whole atg career, last fight story is misguiding my judgement. i thought a hopkins decision was nailed on.

    Thinking about it...i got Smith by KO. Hopkins is just too goddamn old. and 2 year layoff? it could get ugly here

            He took a beating against Kovalev too. But still can't count him out.

            Hopkins can outbox him in the center of the ring, Smith excels when he's got guys pinned on the ropes and throws hard body shot combos. Smith uses a high guard which leaves his body exposed, early body work for Hopkins could be key to a W.

                Usyuk-Mchunu is a battle between the two slickest boxers in the cruiserweight division, actually maybe they are the only two slick boxers in the cruiserweight division

                      So Yamaguchi Falcao just scored a tko with 2:33 left in the first round by, his opponent rolling his ankle.
