Hopkins 170, Wright 170!

I'm guessing around half a million households + internet stream leeches.

 

1 thing you dont do is put your hands on a mans face. probably one of the most disrespectful things you can do other than spit in their face. winky didnt seem to feed into it much though.

winky looks big at 170 but next to bhop he looks small. i dont see winky being able to hit bernard as cleanly as he wants and getting countered most the night. tough fight for both, but i say bhop uds him in a ugly fight.

 

Agreed, it's sad to watch...and people complain about the linear title.

 

He's going to have to do better than throw 2 rights hands per round.

 

Great show, who is buying this animosity? I like Hopkins.

 

And friends for over a decade....

This was a marketing ploy....no more...no less.

 

Winky is a fraud ???You serious ??

 

Anyone know if this fight is on Sopcast?

 

Something doesn't jive here...

 

They look more playful than angry during this exchange to me.

 

He locks those spaces for beating a 'fraud'? And his light-heavyweight career affects his middleweight standing?

 

Can't wait for this one. If Wright wins this he probally moves into my top 50 all time p4p, Hopkins maybe top 30 if he wins. A true boxing fans loves nothing more than these fights, this is what is the sweet science is all about.

 

i can see the size and strength advantage of hopkins making it a rough night for winky.

but i'm leaning more to winky beating B-Hop but UD simply due to punch output. against sam soliman who can be awkward winky threw over a thousand punches despite the fact he had a cold. hell, he was constantly blowing his nose and i don't imagine he'd make something like that up.

B-Hop's output is getting lower by the fight. i thought he'd beat tarver cause tarver is an old fart too, but simply fades as the rounds go on. winky will not fade and even though the extra weight might mean he wont throw as much, he'll still outwork the old man.

will be an interesting tactical fight yet with a lot of variations as they both try something different to neutralize the other.

 

Still torn on this one. I like Bhop to win coz he's in Roach stable. I'm leaning with Winky coz I think he will be busier & wins by SD. maybe a Draw.

If the same Bhop from the Tarver fight shows up. Bhop might win it. By UP of course.
