Hopkins vs. AA

AA is the stronger guy at higher weight, period!

 

You are just hyping Hopkins cuz he beat Pavlik just like with Zuniga,trying to make him better than he is.The hype keeps going:-(

 

Well, I thouht Pav would at least give Hops some problems. Boy was I ever wrong.

Now I'll try to sound smart and say that styles make fights. And AA doesn't seem to bring much different in terms of skills. So Hop would school him.

On the other hand, who cares? AA and Pav would be a riot. Hey, PBF kicked Gatti's ass, but that didn't make the three wars between Arturo and Ward any less magnificent did it?

 

To be honest mate, there is zero evidence to back this up, none.

Abraham stood there after being hit by a punch that broke his jaw. The man can take a shot a damn damn good one.

Hopkins would no doubt in my mind do a job on him, but there is no reason to think Hopkins would stop him, he has not stopped anybody in years, including Winky a natural LMW and Pavlik who had shown vurnelablities at 160-Abraham has shown himself only to have a cast iron jaw.

 

Hopkins by wide UD. If there's a top level fighter out there who makes Hopkins look active by comparison, it's Arthur Abraham. Hops already schooled Winky Wright, who's very similar defensively.

 

Look I'm not trying to be mean, but if you think were hyping Hopkins because we believe he would school AA then I say that is madness! Over hyping Hopkins would be saying he is greater than Sugar Ray Robinson, which is a way over the top just to make a point.:nut

 

Hopkins landing at will and making AA chase him like a moron. Maybe a hard punch here or there by Abraham but not enough to win more than 3 rounds.

 

Like I said,nobody stops Abraham and saying that Hopkins would stop him is crazy cuz Abraham would never go to 170 to fight him.It's like saying Vitali would stop Margarito

 

Well I would be more inclined to agree with that then. I see a good chance of AA lasting all 12 rounds with B-hop.

 

He would go the distance anyway,even defense mode.Anyway he ain't gonna go more than 168 til he retires more likely,maybe a super money fight will make him think.

 

There's 3 things I know:
1) Smaller fighters don't beat Hopkins.
2) Power punchers don't beat Hopkins.
3) Inactivity won't beat Hopkins.

Abraham does have a hell of a chin and can fight on the inside as well as packing dynamite in his fists, but I don't see it ending any other way than a Hopkins UD.

 

Well, at least Hopkins won't cut his punch output!

 

Can't argue with that
