    Hopkins in his 160 prime is a level above for mine, absolutely. Too crafty, too classy. Valdes was very durable tho, it's a comfortable decision win.

    A real pick em for me.
    Hop should b able to out box him if he fights a disciplined fight but if he decides to stop and trade at times he could getvinto some trouble.
    Like i said earlier i dont think any1 has an easy time with a prime motivated Valdez.
    Still need more time to mull this over but i lean towards Hop by close decision for now.

    Hopkins would win, but Valdez would likely hurt him a few times. But no, he isn't actually beating Hopkins. Hop too a technician in the end.
