Shumenov's face tells us one thing -- Genghis Khan got to Khazakstan.

Shumenov is cagey, he is a thinker. And you may be right!

C'mon... Quillin's entertaining, bro. If only because he's got that huge power, but is vulnerable at the same time. People just want to see someone dropped.
People want to see a fight. They don't want to watch round after round of the champ backing up and pawing with his jab against a smaller plodding hittable opponent.
From one getting old guy to another - Go Hopkins.

It impressed me too. But I had that fight as 50-50 going in. And while I Porter beating Paulie going in, I didn't expect him to blow him out

Have to agree. I thought the Quillin fight was terrible.

Me neither. Porter looking like money.
Corona cameltoe!
Re: Hopkins Showtime card thread
Corona has stepped up its game :lickish:
Re: Hopkins Showtime card thread
OMG...... if they booed Quillin, they're gonna have a field day with this one.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
Re: Hopkins Showtime card thread
I don't see how Hopkins can get that round. 1-0 Shumenov
Re: Hopkins Showtime card thread
Bullshit. I remember Hopkins having a nutrientest for the Pavlik fight
Re: Hopkins Showtime card thread
2-0 Hopkins. Shumenov is waiting to explode with a bait or he has turned 50 himself

I still like Quillin, I think he has what it takes but he needs to watch the tapes and refine his style

All I know is I wasn't posting in the middle of the rounds like I just did for the 2nd round of Hopkins-Shumenov.
Re: Hopkins Showtime card thread
I used to think highly of Quillin and I still think he is a worthy titlist but the more I watch him, I find myself losing interest.
Daniel jacobs definitely has more substance than him.
GGfake would beat quillin imo.

Agree on Golovkin. The division is in flux. Quillin looked like a guy happy to be mentioned in some ways. Good but..
3-0 Hopkins
