How about Cloud is trash with overrated power and poor stamina and no idea how to cut off the ring as to why Hopkins will pull this out?
Yea if Cloud can actually effectively pressure Hopkins for more than just the first part of the fight, it will show us what exactly Hopkins has left in his bag of tricks, if any.
Well yea, but Hopkins is really getting up there in age (not that it seems to matter with him), and he's coming off a loss, so I can't really gauge where he is, as Dawson is a much different boxer than the sloppy Cloud. I'm going with Hopkins not very sure on my pick, but if it was Hopkins coming off his win over Pascal I would be much more confident in picking him. I only see this as being competitive because of Hopkins age obviously, cause Cloud is nowhere near Bhop in boxing ability.
Cloud's a solid fighter and a dangerous opponent. We don't know exactly how far gone 'Nard is, but hopefully we get to see him outduel Father Time yet again.
yeah sure he is. Jesus. After 3 rounds Cloud will be gasping for air as he's telegraphing his arm punches as Hopkins is circling away with ease as if hes taking light jog in the park. Please
Hopkins knows how to pick fights. Cloud should put his food on the gas and keep going . Hopkins at 48 cannot fight too well for too much longer.
Cloud sucks. Hopkins will win easy. Worst champ in the sport. Cloud did worse against an old Johnson than anyone but glass jawed Alllen Green. Dawson schooled him. Froch won easily. Bute won easily. Groves won easily. Beating Johnson isnt a feat and he barely beat him.
Cloud beat Johnson down better than anyone beat him in his late career surge. LOL. Froch fought Johnson at 168 and so did Bute, Cloud fought him at a easier weight of 175. He also beat the dog **** out of Johnson as well. Domination. Cloud will quite possibly KO B-hop.
Cloud didn't beat Johnson down. From what I remember, Johnson was doing very well, actually and had a lot of success until he stopped using his jab. Had jab Johnson continued using his jab, he probably would've won the fight.
Beat down lol? He went to war with a 43 year old Glen johnson and was getting his ass tapped for large portions of the fight. Domination my ass lol. Avatar bet Hopkins wins?
Bro...Hopkins is 48, think on that for a second, forty motha****ing eight..."has anything left", promise he has nothing left, literally nothing.
Pascal fights were not long ago. And if he had "nothing left" than he wouldn't have: a) won a couple rounds off of Dawson b) been relatively competitive in the rounds he lost to Dawson c) made it to the final bell vs. Dawson
