I just cannot get excited by this fight. Of course, I hope I'm proven wrong, but I can see nothing other than a 12 round borefest, total punches thrown: 25 a round, if we're lucky.. If Tarver wins, big deal, he beat a 40 something middleweight. I suppose if Hopkins wins it'll be something to add to his legacy, but to me it'll just be further proof that Tarver isn't actually very good.

At least you are realistic enough to realize Hopkins is a real longshot!! The Hopkins that fought Eastman & Taylor didnt seem to have a whole lot left in the tank!

Too true gentlemen.

Isn't it nice when we all get along?

This fight will be truly dire, I reckon.
