    Default Did Anyone Else Have Hopkins Winning The 2nd Taylor vs Hopkins Fight ??

    Funny enough people see the first fight more controversial than 2nd but i had Taylor winning first fight because i thought he pretty much controlled first 8 rounds and i had him winning 7 rounds to 5 but in rematch i had Hopkins winning by a point Hopkins won 12th round and i felt he come on strong after 7th round and won near enough most of the rounds after that i thought Hopkins was little bit more aggressive because he landed more punches in first 8 rounds than he did in first fight and made the rounds alot close did anyone else see it this way aswell ??

    Yeah I saw it your way Ice. I felt people were being a little bit rose-tinted after the first fight because they couldn't believe Hopkins lost. 2nd fight though, I felt Hopkins actually won it by a couple of rounds. They were close fights though, but we're learning that Taylor gets a few gifts off the judges from time to time.

    Well I felt Winky let Taylor boss him towards the end of that fight as Winky seemed to fade. Close one but at the time I had Taylor win that. I had Spinks over Taylor though, couldn't believe the decision when I heard it.

    ye bzkfm if wright would have won the last round then he would have had it easily however i still had him one point up and as for the spinks fight taylor did'nt show up how did a judge see it 117-111 Taylor that is a JOKE.

    About damn time some people that agree with, B-hop won the second fight. The first one he lost. I don't understand why the first fight was so controversial, Taylor didn't do much the first 8 rounds but he still won them. Hopkins gave him a nice whoopin in the last 4 but he didn't knock him out or down so he didn't win the fight. I had him clearly winning the second one.

    Hopkins defo lost the first IMO, he lost at least 7 of the first 8 rounds, not badly but he still lost them. There were more debateable rounds in the first half of the seconf fight so I can see where Hopkins could have won, but I still scored it for Taylor, though I haven't seen it since that night.

    I thought Hopkins lost both fights.

    I haven't seen them since the night they took place and would rather watch paint dry than watch them again.

    I had Hopkins winning the first fight 7-5 and the second fight a draw so technically he still should be champion. However Hopkins has only himself to blame in both fights as he was very negative.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
