I really cannot wait for July 21st. I can't believe people are saying this will stink, or is unnecessary, just have a good think about this one, Winky hasn't been beaten for 10 years, and Bernard has just come off of possible his greatest victory, the winner of this fight is 1 fight away from being without question the greatest of his era from 160 - 175. This is a big fight.
Totally agree & I am trying me gotdam best to fly back out to Vegas for this one too.Quote:

I've been looking forward to this one almost as much as PBF/DLH believe it or not.
I feel that Winky will take the UD, but as a Hopkins fan I'm really pulling for him. If Hopkins at 42 could beat a guy like WInky Wright at this point in his career, that would be another huge boost for Hopkin's already incredible legacy.
2 of the greatest defensive technicians of the last 15 years - can't wait for it
my man b hop need to win !!! lol
My money is on Winky 12 rd UD. I don't see a KO.
I wanna see who's gonna be coming forward :-\
I agree. This is the first fight in a long time that I really have absolutely no idea who will win. At 160 a couple of years ago, I would have picked Winky. But now, at 170, no idea. That--and the skill level of these guys--is what makes this fight so exciting to me.
Winky definitely deserves to regain his #2 P4P spot over Pac if he manages to win this (I don't think he deserved the downgrade in the first place).
When's the last time Winky did anything but ??? If he isn't the one going forward applying pressure that's going to be because Hopkins is busting his ass, imo... I expect a very close fight though with Winky being the agressor... I'm interested to see how he handles the weight though, we know Hopkins is very comfortable there and packs quite a punch.Quote:
