BOXING - Hopkins vs Wright - 07/21/2007

winky gets 3 of the four first rounds but hopkins settles down and starts taking over.

Hopkins wins via 12 round decision.

Two great fighter's, but this fight will be almost unwatchable. I'd give B-Hop a slight edge just because it remains to be seen how Winky will handle the added weight. My gut tells me Hopkins by decision, but I certainly won't be betting it because I'm not comfortable putting my money in the judges hands in what will surely be a close decision in a fight with very little action.

The over is easy money.

really b-hop is underdog????
why cuz winky shut-out a rusty tito???
hopkins rides it out to a boring decision

unless he k.o's winky.....i no its hard to believe but winky has never fought a fighter of hopkins stature....no mosely dont count and neither does jermain(the garbageman) taylor
hopkins will pick him apart
the question is before the final bell rings....

**moses millsap** · 07-09-07, 06:36 PM

Take the over, it should be -1000.

**moses millsap** · 07-19-07, 11:31 AM

Nard wins this one.

**sdjoe** · 07-19-07, 05:12 PM

Well i hope bernard wins last time i lost my cash when he fought Taylor he didnt turn it on till late rounds and it was to late .
I think Hopkins has to win or i see him hanging them up and just promoting with oscar

**moses millsap** · 07-19-07, 06:00 PM

I still think X won both fights against Taylor despite what the judges say. My book doesn't offer props, otherwise I'd take a small shot with Hopkins by KO.

**EaglesPhan36** · 07-21-07, 09:32 PM

One unit on Hopkins at +135 and a quarter unit on the draw at +1200 just for shits and giggles.

**rjt721** · 07-21-07, 11:44 PM

9-3, 9-3, 8-4?

**moses millsap** · 07-21-07, 11:48 PM

I had it 7-5 Hopkins myself, but was happy with the result.

**rjt721** · 07-21-07, 11:57 PM

I had B-Hop winning 6-5-1. The fight was even more painful to watch than I anticipated (which is saying something). How two judges can score a fight 17-11 when the winner only lands 9 jabs all night is unbelievable.

That ref should never be involved in a championship fight again. What's the point of warning Hopkins for holding numerous times, at one point declaring that one more infraction will cost a point, and then doing nothing even as Bernard continues to hold?
