Hopkins/Taylor Your Picks

[dogtown123]

I pick hopkins by decision or late stoppage what are your thoughts?

Hopkins by decision, but it'l be close and a hard fight

[spinksjinx]

Taylor by UD, I know Hopkins is the more experienced and the slicker fighter of the two. But I like Taylor and always have since I first saw him fight about 2 years back. While I dont think he has fought the best opposition to prepare himself for Hopkins nobody will ever prepare Taylor for Hopkins. Simply because there is noone else like him. I expect it to be a tough long fight but I believe the younger and fresher Jermain will get the nod.

Also dont be surprised to see some controversy either, Hopkins is hated by HBO and Jermain is loved...Who promotes Jermain? Do the math.

Tough one to call.

I'l go with Hopkins by mid-round stoppage.

I see this fight being similar to Cintron-Margarito,where Cintron had the physical tools,but just didn't have the experience to hang with the tough experienced Margarito.

Well I would not listen to Teddy Atlas for boxing predictions

his predictions are crap

He said Tyson would KO McBride at 40 seconds
he said Kid Diamond was sure to beat Cassamayor
he is wrong all the time.

Hopkins know what he's getting himself into. If his plan A doesn't work, then he'll go with Plan B or C. But does Taylor have a Plan B?

My prediction = Snooze fest. Another boring Hopkins sleeper hold.

That is probably the best and most precise prediction in this thread. Neither fighter is really exciting.
