    Bernard is one of the most boring fighters I have ever watched. He is a great fighter, but doesn't come on strong till late in the fight. More of A defensive fighter.

    Winky, not really that boring, but also a defensive fighter. Great fighter, and I'd much rather watch Winky, and hope he crushes Hopkins, but styles makes fights, and these two styles make a boring fight

    Not the most boring ever, but not exciting enough for me to shell out $50 bucks for a PPV. I can't imagine this fight being as boring as Taylor/Spinks or Dirrell/Stevens though.

    yeah, Taylor/Spinks was pretty bad, but i'm not looking foward to this fight either. Nobody really cared about Taylor/Spinks, but they're making this fight like it's supposed to be fight of the year or something

    Well it all depends on how you want to look at it.

    If you are a fan of boxing because you like to see people get knocked the **** out...then no, this fight probably aint for you. And believe me, there is nothing wrong with that....everyone likes a good KO.

    But if you are more a fan of the sweet science side of boxing (if that makes sense....but you know what I mean)....if you enjoy seeing a boxer outthink his opponent....then you may like this fight.

    I myself LOVE watching defensive fighters. I enjoy the bare essentials of boxing. I will more than likely enjoy this fight.

    BUT, not enough to shell out the PPV money for it tho....

    Oh trust me, I am a fan of the sweet science. PBF is my fav fighter and he is, not only talented the best fighter in the world, but mentally too. He beats his oppenents before they even get in the ring.
    And Corey Spinks too, pure boxing.

    And don't get me wrong, I like watching these 2 fighters, but just not against eachother.

    I think it's gonna be a great, interesting fight. And I'm not one of these elitist aficionados of the sweet-science, but nevertheless they're two of the greatest fighters in the world at the moment, and it's gonna be great seeing these two go at it.

    But then again, I love watching Bernard Hopkins fight, so I guess that's one of the major reasons why I'll be paying for the fight.

    I will put money on it that this will be a snoozer.
    But I do hope Winky busts him up

    I really want to watch this fight. Should have happened years ago when both were Undisputed at 154 and 160. But Im not going to pay 60 dollars for it. Ill catch on the replay. Or most likely try to find someone who is watching it live.
