It will probably be close, I expect Tarver to pull it out, but I'd like to see Hopkins end on a high note with a good win. I just hope they don't have twelve rounds of "Feeling each other out".

the reason I think Tarver will win is because he's got most of the advantages (age, height, reach, power,...)
Most of Hopkins' career he used to dominating much naturally smaller guys.. this will be his first fight he is fighting someone of Tarver's size and caliber...
Hopkins' only advantage is that Tarver is coming off a HW to LHW and we all saw what happened to RJJ. Tarver is the RJJ in the Hopkins fight.
Not sure the 41 year old Hopkins can pull it off... very unlikely. But I would still want him to winComment
