    Vlad is boring against low-level opposition.

    BHop is boring against top-level opposition.

    On a reasobale sized TV - Wlad is better to watch, on a laptop or whatever Wlad looks terrible. Hopkins has been in better fights, but thats down to his opponents, Wlad has never had those opponents, but he delivers the KO's that Hopkins cant

    Wlad easily.

    Say what you will about Hopkins but his fights these days are must-see-TV. Besides that, Hopkins gets to fight on Showtime/HBO...

    I prefer Hopkins. While Wlad is more athletic and has more power, he also clinches more and is overly passive even with all that power.

    Hopkins also has better technique and I prefer watching a fighter that uses technique to disarm a physically superior fighter rather than a physically far superior fighter like Wlad dominate far inferior opposition.

    Hopkins fights like a mini John Ruiz and fakes low blows and injuries. No thanks.

    Wlad does not clinch as much as Hopkins. Hopkins is like an Octopus now. He throws one punch and then looks to headbutt or clinch.
