I like Tiger to slowly but surely bore in and have Hopkins fighting to survive. Hopkins might survive, but Tiger is ultimately too strong and takes an unquestionable UD.
Hopkins would box and move more than he did with Johnson. He showed a fine jab and of couse his fine lead right. I think he would win the outside game clearly and score many points there and he was good enough to hold his own once they get close but ultimatly Tiger will come here out on top but Hopkins will score there much more than Tiger will score outside. IMO whis will be very competative and a very, very good fight in which every round is highly contested but in the end Hopkins outside game, footwork and excellent positioning wins him the fight.
Tiger met and beat better fighters than Hopkins and Hopkins sure as hell never fought anyone at middleweight at Tiger's level except for Jones...
the Hopkins that only fights on ESB would have to clinch and low blow just to survive the first round, that Hopkins doesn't have any skill, they call him Bernard 'The Eastsidecutioner' Flopkins in reality, Hopkins for me, he would take a beating in a few rounds on the way but win clearly imo, a strategic one on his behalf.
