I know it sounds ****** but I just had this impression in my head of Hopkins being this littile Middleweight and Tarver being this Giant 7ft tall light Heavyweight who can even move up if he wants too. I dont know if its Tarver's lankyness or what but I just imagined him seeming so much bigger compared to Hopkins.
Then I see them in the press confernce and Hopkins is nearly eye to eye with him. There only one inch apart but I had this thought like they were 4 or 5 inches apart. I know the weight will be a big deal but now Im going with Hopkins to win this. I think he will come in with some nice weight & muscle on him since he's been working with that littile guy who is great at putting weight on.
I dont know why but I just had this picture in my head of Tarver towering over him and just throwing the jab on him all night followed by the big straight left coming down at Hopkins but in reality he doesnt have much of a height advantage.
Add to that Hopkins just got me hyped when they were faced to face yesterday and he brought the streets to Tarver. I loved in when he told him "you scared". The way he said it got me boosted and if anyone heard it then they know what I mean. Then he told him "you out of character, Hollywood". Basically saying dont try to act street when your more of a flashy Hollywood type.
Im wanting to see this fight more & more now and Im looking for Hopkins to pull of the upset. I am also interested to see if Hopkins goes back to the old days when he was a straight beast. Im talking about the Keith Holmes, Antwan Echols days when he use to come straight at you, rough you up and just set his will on you. I think he will have alot of trouble beating Tarver the way he's fought recently but if he brings back the rugged street fighting Hopkins then he will make this a exciting fight.
I think people will be surprised by how big and cut Hopkins looks. Kind of like when RJ went to HW. After this fight I think Hopkins will be so excited and will wonder why he never moved up before. Then I think he will fight either Jones or Calzaghe and maybe both to finish his career
