Why is Hopkins so widely expected to beat RJJ?

I dont get it, but i havent been following both of these guys' careers as much as some on here so can people help me out here with SUBSTANCE; not just 'ohhh rjj is over the hill' type bull****.

im honestly seeing rjj winning this one on combos and handspeed. it seems that rjj has the advantage stylistically. jones has clearly come up short in his last two fights due to a well placed shot by green that wont be replicated by hopkins, and then simply facing a dude with too much output for jones at this point in his career. his stock has massively diminshed because of this, whereas hopkins stock is sky high, and it feels that this is the reason for the overwhelming belief that hopkins got this one. or what am i missing here?

Please, other than LukeO whos gonna spew childish bull**** regardless, can everyone else keep it to substance as far as your boxing brains allow?
