    you think hopkins can't win because of two close losses to jermain taylor??

    in the first fight his gameplan was to relie on taylor getting tired later and take control, it was't the best gameplan by hop and he took too long waiting for jermain too tire. he learned from that mistake as it showed in the second taylor fight were he started quicker and i felt he won a UD 115-113. he confirmed he learned from his mistake against taylor in the first fight by his performances in the tarver and wright fight.
    Kessler hits harder than Hopkins. Hopkins has to conserve energy at his age and Calzaghe will give him no option but to throw back. Hopkins will get so tired he might even be stopped.

    Hopkins knows he will lose, I really think that. All these blown up Welters he has fought have done fuck all at the weight they fought Bernard at. Does that not tell you something? Tarver was lucky to get a fucked RJJ in the ring and everyone seems to think that was a great win for Hopkins because of that.

    Hopkins best performance was againsed RJJ because he actually won about 3-4 rounds.

    kessler and hopkins styles are different, Hopkins is crafty fights dirty, better defensive, better counter puncher, better inside and has better movement around the ring, he is also way more experienced at fighting southpaws. hopkins will not get stopped and vice versa.

    another thing if hopkins thought he would lose he wouldn't of taken the fight, he ain't stupid. he's all business.
