Hopkins has respectable power he isn't hard hitter at all and even if he was some big puncher he didn't let Taylor know about it because Taylor never had his chin tested agaisnt Hopkins i think Pavlik constant pressure will give Taylor problems plus it will be interesting to see how Taylor takes a good whack off a power puncher like Pavlik.
