Bernard Hopkins Vs Taylor III in the near future?

[rjj tszyu]

I think at LHW Hopkins takes the win. If he had to drain back down to middleweight I would go for Taylor again.

I actually don't think either has a better money fight on option for the start of the year so I could see this happening. If it did, it'd likely be another 170 catchweight fight. I'd go for Hopkins in a close fight.

Another bad fight i will watch it but i can't see it being any better, than there last 2 boring fights. The difference is Jermain Taylor at that time was HBO's new star at that time, and the Middleweight division needed a new young upcoming fighter to pass the torch on to.

Jermain Taylor before the Bernard Hopkins fights and ETC, was considered a somewhat exciting fighter at that time with a great jab. And a nice personality outside the ring, and with his Amateur/Olympic success it was easy to promote him and it was hard not to be a fan of him. Thats why i personally think he got the benefit of the doubt in both Bernard Hopkins fights, and the Winky Wright fight.

I personally don't think he would get the same treatmant in a 3rd meeting with Bernard Hopkins. The 2 losses to Kelly Pavlik has ruined his reputation quite a bit, since Bernard Hopkins handled Kelly Pavlik very easily. So i'll take Bernard Hopkins by close decision.

Taylor has looked better as of late but at 170-175 Hopkins may edge him in another close fight. At 168 Taylor would probably win a close fight. Pretty much agree with everyone on this.

God, I hope not!
