Tarver: Hopkins poll time...get those votes and opinions in!!!!

[Gandalf]

So then folks, im laying it down and saying Hopkins can beat tarver, most likely by decision...

what do you guys think?

[TheChosenOne]

as much as i dont like tarver im going to have to say he will take hopkins in a late stoppage

[Mathias]

Hopkins SD

[JonesJrMayweather]

ON record i will say that I'm picking tarver by KO...but Man I hope I'm wrong...PLEEEEEASE prove me wrong B-hop..I fucking hate tarver.....

[Gandalf]

Wouldnt it be something if hopkins could go in there and actually stop tarver

Would quite possibly make my year!!!

[JonesJrMayweather]

That would make my decade...seeing this loud mouth delusional lucky crackhead on his fucking back or the ref waving his hands in the air...

If tarver loses watch the irony of him using the weight loss from the rocky movie as his excuse...the same excuse he wouldn't allow ROy to use he will use if he loses...

And let's be honest is Tarver really all that good? He's beaten 2 big names. Jones Jr who is an all time great but arguably got old after going up to heavyweight and then trying to get down in reasonable time....and beating Johnson, someone hopkins has already stopped....

I know these are different times and Hopkins is 41, but would it really shock people if Hopkins pulls this off....im beginning to think its very calculated on Hopkins part...

Im adamant he can do this....

[Gandalf]

its early days, but hopkins is looking to be the popular choice to win this one!!!

more votes guys!!

[Lionheart Lacy]

i also agree hopkins could win this fight. I mean Hopkins is too skilled to get knocked out, he can avoid that! I got a feeling Tarver is going to bring the fight to B-hop, the way he likes it.

I have noticed that you have to really bring the fight to hopkins to turn him on! i think its going to be a referee stoppage inbetween rounds 6-9. If not, it will be a SD to B-HOP!

[TheChosenOne]

i think i like ruiz more than tarver....

[El Gamo]

I'd loooove Hopkins to win,hopefully a UD otherwise there maybe a rematch,and I keep chnaging my mind but I think BhOp wins on points. Dream scenario:Bhop KO. Worst scenario:Taver win especially if it came by KO!!

[Swashbuckling Gordy]

Both are bottle Jobs .
Long live Clinton Woods.

Tarver has the talent but not the champions instinct and Hopkins was a good fighter but a bottle job and bully Too much hunters caution to be truly great neither can be mentioned in the same breath as Lenord or Hearns.
Calzaghe would beat both handily and i think they both know this Tarver wouldnt take risks against Johnson or Jones both were /are shot and Hopkins finally got found out against a fully blown Middle with skills and power .

Tito and Oscar were best at Welter .
He didnt even convince against those 2.

In truth im not even staying upto watch it , it'll be dull.

[LBSCFC]

i can see this being a chess match. i think tarvers southpaw stance will frustrate bernard and he will win a lopsided decision

[NorthSideX4]

Just like I stated before, Hopkins will give Tarver alot of problems & either win by PTS. or get robbed a decision!!!!

[killersheep]

Tarver will be the early agressor and Hopkins will step on the gas too late

Tarver UD 8 rounds to 4
