Bernard Hopkins vs David Haye

A bit of a repost on my part but it fits

id probably root for Hopkins to pull this win off, and i def think that Hopkins would have his moments, but for him to win? I dont see it at all, and i dont even see it as close.

Haye is bigger, is more athletic, if faster, and hits harder, and often has a nice way of measuring and keeping distance.... not to be missed is the fact that Haye has some decent reflexis too, and for Hopkins this means he will have to close the distance and try to rough Haye up on the inside (i dont see him catching haye from the outside much due to Hayes speed, reflexis, and range) So assuming he closes the distance on Haye without problem, hes still going to be in with a guy stronger and bigger then him, I see hopkins winning a few rounds off of his wits and some very good spurts here and there, but over the course of the fight i really, really think Haye proves to be too big coupled with being too dynamic for Hopkins at this stage (and maybe any stage if im honest)

This is just IMO of course, but i dont see why hopkins has as many backers to win against haye as he does.

Not saying i wouldnt watch And i wouldnt mind Hopkins pulling out such a victory, one for the ages no doubt IMO, and id be eating plenty of humble pie as well, but i simply dont see it. He would do better against some other heavies though i think, a slower, more straight forward type fighter. So not saying i dont think X cant be succesful at heavyweight, i just dont see him making it very close with Haye, let alone winning.
