Against Hopkins his main flaw seemed to be his hunger for me. Jermaine Taylor referred to that fight as a dnce between to old men. Eastman never really tried to exert his will on Hopkins and was mastered by the old campaigner.
If he seemed to lack the hunger to drive himself on against Hopkins i doubt he will be able to summon the drive to give it another go a couple of years on, with a much more bloody minded set of Champions in the shapes of Sturm, Abraham and Pavlik.


Unfortunately.
Wayne Elcock might dispute that.
