    Same thing he did to Pavlik. Punchers should stay the hell away from Hopkins if they know what is good for them.

    At what weight? That is very important. Abraham's a big puncher, but so is Pavlik- at 160. But fighting at 170 is a whole other thing. If Abraham is without power at 170, Hopkins destroys him. If he carries it up, there's always a chance of a one-punch KO. But very, very doubtful.

    Abraham isn't that stupid to go 2 weight classes up and fight Hopkins of all people.And it would be a very ugly and slightly fight,B-Hop takes it tough:good

    Defend himself. Pop out some jabs and combos. Put up a fight.

    But that still wouldn't be enough, Hopkins wins this one easily, losing only 2 or 3 rounds.

    The version of Hopkins we saw Saturday night stops AA in about 8 to 9 rounds, and I don't give a rats ass how good his chin supposedly is. Bernard stops him; period.

    I think Abraham has enough wrinkles to his arsenal to win at least 3 rounds but that's just about it really.

    No way - AA has the FAR better trainer and ring intelligence...he would lose to B-Hop but won't get schooled like Kelly did.

    Styles (and weight) make fights...

    what an original prediction after his fight 2 nights ago.
    same as win AA killed PAntera in his last fight, he was KOing everyone in his next fight.....
    im no fan of AA, especially for fighting a who gives a **** raul marquez, but hopkins aint shutting him out, it would be a pickem fight....

    :patsch

    AA looked more "solid" physically to me when he fought Miranda then KP did fighting Hopkins (or even Taylor). AA also has a better inside game then KP which would benifit him fighting and countering a guy like Hopkins.

    I say AA has a better chance of making his fight with Hopkins "look" more competitive.

    When was Abraham ever hit by a guy who weighs 180 pounds on fight night? You think Pavlik looked confused, Arthur would completely melt down when he started getting blistered by Hopkins.
