    Bernard is going to be hit and pressured from the starting bell. He is too old and does not have the legs anymore to avoid the constant pressure that Winky is going to lay on him. Look for Winky to come forward throwing his jab and straight left, mixing in body punches and hooks all night. Hopkins is going to find it nearly impossible to counter Winky. Winky doesn't fully commit to any punch, which is why he isn't really ever wide open for a counter from it. Look for a very large disparity in activity and workrate in favor of Winky and Hopkins will take more punishment in this fight then ever before. The fight is going to be stopped around the 10th or 11th. Hopkins isn't invincible.....nobody is. He is too old to be fighting Winky, and this is going to be very painful to watch one of the greatest fighters ever get TKO'd in his last fight (much like many others have). But at least it will be against another All-Time Great in Winky :good

    Come on bro you've got to be joking? I love Winky and he might even pull off the win but I'd bet everything I owned that no way in hell would Winky ever stop Hopkins.

    IMO this has been the hardest fight for me to pick in the last 5 years. Too be honest I really don't know who will win and that's what makes this fight so interesting a true pick em fight if there ever was one.:good

    I see where everyone is coming from. I've just always had a feeling that Winky would beat B-Hop given they ever fought. I really feel that winky isn't going to just win, but win in a very convincing fashion :good

    I admit that I might grossly overrate Winky at points though.

    Winky hasn't won a fight by stoppage in years, Nard has never been stopped. No way Winky stops Nard. If it does happen, then I would have no choice but to believe you can see into the future.

    I dont think he will stop bernard and I dont think he has the right style to win a Wide UD over bernard you have to remember Winky in big fights he does fall alseep the last third, he did so with Taylor did so with Vargas while Hopkins though he doesnt start out the first half of the fight trying to win those rounds he does step it up in the final rounds in all of his fights, the style Winky does have will allow Bernard to sit in the pocket to do damage and when Nard is on the inside it gets ugly, and I fully expect it to be a Hopkins like performance in this fight.
    I think Winky can win this but he cant just come forward with his hands up, he must use some sort of movement in there and stay away from the inside fight, he must make it a jab fest to win. if he cant he wont win.

    I agree that Wright will win and win emphatically

    but a stoppage ? not so sure about that but all the old ******* sack swingers will be eating some serious crow when this one is over

    If anyone's getting stopped, it ain't gonna be Hopkins.
