Taylor-Hopkins 1 and 2. Who did y'all have winning?

[#1Assassin]

i had hopkins winning both. dawson and roy clearly beat him and if wright got the decision over BHop i wouldnt complain. but there is no doubt he beat taylor, calzaghe too.

ineffective aggression and missing punches dont score points. clean punches landed, defense and ring generalship does.

I'll have to rewatch them. At the times these fights came on, I hated Hopkins with a seething passion.

taylor won both. hopkins ended the first fight so strongly but he did next to nothing the first 8 rounds. second fight was like the first, minus the strong rally. the second one was one of the worst fights i've ever seen.

[RVABoxer]

I remember i felt Hopkins won the first. I felt Hopkins maybe one the second but I wasn't really surprised at the decision it could have gone either way to me

[IronDanHamza]

I thought Hopkins clearly won the first fight. Surprised at the amount of people who thought Taylor won. I can't see how Taylor won the first fight.

I scored the second fight for Taylor.

These fights were clear signs that Hopkins, although still a top fighter at the age of 40, wasn't the fighter he once was.

Good stuff i need to watch both again.

[MrClutch85]

I scored the 2 fight 115-113 for Hopkins I scored the first fight 114-114 Draw

[-PBP-]

First fight for Hopkins despite a very slow start.

Second fight don't remember but wasn't disgusted with the decision by any means.

[-Kev-]

Taylor won both.

[ИATAS]

I think at best a case can be made that Taylor deserved a draw in one or both fights but they were close enough that no one can convincingly argue that Taylor won either fight.

The first fight I thought Hopkins definitely deserved the nod. Here are some scores:

The second fight wasn't a whole lot different although Hopkins started earlier. Taylor threw more punches in both fights but Hopkins landed more in both.
