    Even though I loathe Floyd, I can't argue with this.

    I think Joe will win on points because of his work rate and his ability to change game plan throughout the fight......dont get me wrong I love BHOP but I think Joe will take it by a few rounds.

    Joe's ability to change game plan throughout a fight? What about Hopkins's ability to do such and the fact that he is a master at neutralizing workrate?

    I dont think hopkins would have took the fight if he didnt have a plan and the tools to carry it out
    hop is a great fighter and he wont take a fight unless he has a way to win
    calzhage slaps too much with his punches
    b-hop's conter-right is gonna be lovely against joe c's southpaw jab

    Yup, and if Joe gets reckless, as he often does, leaving himself out of position and off-balance, he will pay, and pay dearly for such mistakes.

    BUT....Joe is a smart fighter. In fact, he's much smarter than his fans who claim he's going to win the bout on mere "workrate". He knows what he's up against, and I doubt he will be as careless as he usually is against the mediocre opponents who have largely defined his so-called 'legacy'.

    Are you serious, you think there was no evidence that Hops was past his best in the Taylor fights?

    So his low punch output means nothing?

    Watch a younger Hops in the echols fights and others and he used to be far more active, throw more punches and have more energy.


    edit - nevermind I didnt realize this was a huge thread, this post I quoted is prob from months ago.
