I didn't see ANY weaknesses. I aslo fear Jermain won't be the same either. Hopkins looked beatiful in there and wasn't even tired at the end of the 12th.

The only weakness I saw was Hopkins was taking it easy on the kid. Had Hopkins gone "Balls Out" in the last part of the fight AND threw in a tad more punches in the middle, Taylor would have been either seriously hurt or Knocked Out. Hopkins was being too economical and admiring his own punches, at times.
