Some fairly sharp money has landed on Taylor's side. He does not have any jab, it is a stiff left jab, the worst possible punch for a lie and wait Hopkins.
Next, Hopkins actually made his name, finally, after punishing two inflated welters, Tito and Oscar, who were also, past their primes. Now he gets a real middleweight, in his prime, with a weapon that could cause enormous problems for Bernard.
Fight of the year already happened with Diego. This reminds me of guys that just keep going, and get stopped. Sugar Ray vs. Norris? He just got beaten, badly. What about pound for pound best ever Roy Jones Jr.? Did he lose it overnight or what? This kid is no walkover, no laydown and no inflated welter.
Too close to call, and most of the value has been taken on Taylor early. If forced to take a spot, I would hesitate but take the over, as I agree, it will go to the cards. Both cautious and patient fighters. No Diego here.

If it goes to the cards, how much will Taylor get for his jab? To me, the worst possible scenario to bet a boxing side, if you believe it is going the distance.
