Revisited Hopkins Taylor I for the 1st time

Pre revisiting-I remember being a kid and Hopkins was my idol. I had a dislike for Taylor and I thought Lou DiBella was the biggest dick hole. The way I remembered it going was Taylor won all of the 1st 8 rounds or atleast 6. Hopkins did nothing until round 9 and on the rest of the rounds. Could have stopped him but did not and toyed with him and let him off the hook. I hoped Hopkins would win when they announced it and he lost but I thought it was 8-4 when I watched 7-5 at worst for taylor. I was frustrated by the fight and never really wanted to watch it but I rewatched also for the purpose to score myself. I remembered Lampley and the crowd getting way into it whenever Taylor landed or threw for that matter. I muted the sound and decided to watch. Boy was my perspective different.
1 10-9 Taylor same as Lederman
2 10-9 Taylor same as Lederman
Hopkins did nothing so far and was even almost KD'd in the 2nd and Taylor is very wild and aggressive. Way cruder than today's Taylor
3 10-9 Hopkins Lederman scored for Taylor Taylor missed alot I thoguth Bernard landed the cleaner blows could have went either way.
4 10-9 Hopkins Disagreed with Lederman again Good exchanges though I felt Hopkins got the better of Taylor very wild
5 10-9 Hopkins agrees with Lederman Taylor could not find him with his shots and lands nothing clean good left hooks by Nard and solid countering
6 10-9 Taylor Agrees with Lederman no real lands first minute Taylor still wild good land inside by B-hop lots of holding another tight round but Taylor finishes wll throwing alot of jabs.
7 10-9 Taylor Agreeing with Lederman Taylor agressive early with combos and jab. Hopkins makes him miss twice goes to counter but Taylor flurries and gets the better of it Taylor finishes strong with a good jab
8 10-9 Hopkins Lederman has it the same Taylor corners him early. Big shots from taylor and a nice right. Two strong jabs from Taylor than a 1-2. Good right from Nard and he loks shaken Hopkins lands 4 or 5 inside rights in row they go to the ropes. 2 jabs from Nard Taylor good start Bernard better finish
9 10-9 Hopkins same page as Harold Lederman Taylor cannot stop the right hand Taylor though keeps flurring back despite obviously being hurt. Hopkins repeated rights to the ropes and Taylor holds on for dear life. Refusing to let go a s Nady tries to break them apart seems like Hopkins may stop him Hopkins spins him while hooking just a genius at work.
10 10-9 Hopkins same as Lederman
11 10-9 Hopkins Lederman same Taylor tired and wobbly continues to throw back despite having no answer for Hopkins right which lands at will. Hopkins mauls well this round and takes him to the ropes. Jab by Nard snaps Taylor's head back. Taylor nice combo and then a good 1-2
12 10-9 Hopkins Lederman same way Hopkins bulls in to start. Taylor still in it with a nice combo then a good 1-2 Bhop another right then he lands a left right. His right still lands at will. Bhop lands a great 4 punch combo.


Final 8-4 Hopkins now I'm no pro judge but that is a total flip flop from my first score years ago. I gues after rewatching my opinion changed. Hopkins did win some early rounds. Taylor looked very wild in effective. He did not dominate as I had thought. Maybe I was just listening to Lmapley and the crowd too much. Close fight though but I had to disagree with Lederman at times. Some close rounds and some that others will disagree with. Your thoughts

 

Who you think won as of now

 

I think most of my judging comes from muting it. I think at times I like some get carried away by commentators and unofficial judges. I feel like 8-4 Bhop maybe a bit wide but I dont think im far off
