J Taylor vs. B Hopkins looks like it could be the fight of the year

and I work 3rd shift Sat night. Maybe it will be on Sirius Satilite. Not much opinion yet, but under 11' +190 looks good for this war.

yeah, the under and hopkins both look good. some money to be made for sure

I hope but don't think it will be better than Corrales and Castillo 1. We shall see. I wanted to bet the under but I'm have the feeling that once Taylor feels Hopkins is still effective inside even to be a senior citizen boxing agewise, he will stay outside and not take risk. I think Taylor knows that a KO to old man Hopkins would do a lot of damage to his "sell ability" than to lose by decision.

Hopkins is not an exciting fighter. He is an extraordinary fighter but no chance of this being some great fight.

line seems "off" to me. I smell a trap. I like Hoppy, but if I bet it will be on taylor.

ill be surprised if it doesnt go the distance. hopkins is a very "safe" boxer.

Taylor is a great fighter but I really think that Hopkins should be a far bigger favorite in this fight as this is a little early in Taylor's career to be fighting someone of Hopkins experience
