Should Golovkin v.s. Hopkins at 168 be interesting to watch?

    I think Hopkins beats GGG at 168. That weight favors Hopkins a lot more than it does GGG. GGG isn't that big of a MW. I'm assuming the size disparity would be pretty telling on fight night and that would mean GGG's power would be negated. I think Hopkins would have some dicey situations but I think he wins close but clear 7-5 or 8-4. He just has too many tricks in his bags for a guy noticeably smaller than him. If they were about the same size, it's a toss up but they aren't.

    Hopkins is nearly 50. He is old but not stupid. He won't drain himself.
