Virgil Hill vs Bernard Hopkins (edit: from the Tarver fight) at 175lbs (Poll added)

Hill by decision in a horrible fight.

 

Hopkins

 

I think Virgil Hill would win a UD.. Hopkins would have a hard time with this style. Virgil was great with the jab and that would make it hard for Bernard to do any of his tricks.

 

Damn horrible fight, still favour the better of the two in Hopkins, calling an MD, headbutts, wayward jabs, clinches, everything going on.

 

I like Hill using that jab all night

 

Hill by brutal KO in 4 rounds.

 

RJJ wasn't knocking Virgil Hill out unless it was a body shot, and sure enough. So definitely no KO. And I don't think Hopkins would be able to move Hill around like he was able to outmaneuver mostly everyone else.

I'll go with Hill the legitimate light heavyweight who fought his entire career at 175. I believe he KO'd Fabrice Tiozzo in the1st in his debut fight at Cruiser, if I'm not mistaken!?

 

Wake me up when the fight is over and let me know the winner .. it's time for a siesta

 

Hill by decision, no doubt in my mind

 

Hopkins too canny and classy. He'd mug him. Hopkins decision.

 

Hopkins would play Virgil against himself. Hill would be more or less whipping his own a$$. Between round Bernard would be doing his taxes and negotiating a deal for 3 fights into the future.

 

no way. everyone knows you are a hopkins fan

 

The Hopkins that schooled Tarver would pump Hill. Jesus.

Of course you are an unbiased observer and completely unbiased poster overall

 

Come on, Tarver was dead at the weigh in. You are comparing a dead man with prime Hill? At light heavy, Bernard lost twice to Dawson and has a draw with Pascal. He would not beat prime Hill IMO
