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.

it's been a long time since i seen them, so i can't remeber the cores i had but IMO hopkins won them both.

yeh hopkins without a doubt won one butt cc for saying taylor gets the decision all the time as he does. Wright and Spinks both made Taylor look like a girl an ye he got a win and a draw WTF...

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.

to me hopkins won the first and lost the second
Re: Did Anyone Else Have Hopkins Winning The 2nd Taylor vs Hopkins Fight ??
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.
Re: Did Anyone Else Have Hopkins Winning The 2nd Taylor vs Hopkins Fight ??
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.
Re: Did Anyone Else Have Hopkins Winning The 2nd Taylor vs Hopkins Fight ??
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.
