Taylor/Hopkins Middleweight Championship

[Brutalis]

.... round two. ESPN link

Taylor is our homegrown Arkansan. And also, the Middleweight Champ. In which he took everything Hopkins had, and gave it right back to win the decision in their first fight.

Since, Hopkins has done nothing but whine and complain, he is upset his carreer is tainted now. I would be too, dummy.

"Everybody who fights me the 2nd time around, doesn't have a good go at it. They always fail." -Hopkins

Well. Taylor has lost a few pounds. Got even faster as if he wasn't already the fastest middleweight there was. And learnd from his rookie mistakes in the first fight. And I see a 27 year old Taylor improving a lot more than a 40 year old cry baby.

Weigh in Pictures Taylor in everlast cutoff, Hopkins in black and orange.


Taylor wins, KO in 6th. I'm calling it now. Hopkins is too old and slow to match Taylors brute strength and speed. It's over for Hopkins.

Fight is Saturday night, in LV Mandalay Bay. HBO ppv.

I don't think the first fight was a fluke...the kid is good.

Looks like it's uphill now for Hopkins, but the man got me a new car so he'll have the support of my money once more

Every bar and grill with a tv showing it is gunna be packed here in central Arkansas. Just dont wear any Longhorns gear!

[PM5K]

I'd imagine most bars will be showing it. I know the Spurs play tomorrow but that shouldn't affect the main event. I'm sure Dave and Busters is showing the fight with like a 10.00 cover, but I don't know if there will be space or if I'll be going...

[Brutalis]

Hmmm. I am not aware that this fight is as huge as it really is.

Wow. Taylor better win now. I am seeing coverage all over TV and everything, wow!

Nope. Slim Decision..the fight went all the way to the full 12 Rounds. Taylor defends his belts! This kid is a good fighter
