Bernard Hopkins (1st Taylor fight) vs Sergio Martinez (Pavlik fight).

12 rounds for the middleweight supremacy.

Who wins?

If those are the times you are asking about in their careers, IMO Martinez wins by close UD. There are other times in their careers I would pick Hopkins to win by UD, possibly late TKO

I hear you. But I think I'd actually pick Hopkins here. Somehow, I don't think B-Hop struggles with Martinez the way he struggled in the early goings with Taylor. He'll adjust quicker.

Hopkins for me (pts)
