I couldn't believe it watching that thing. Hopkins did exactly what De La Hoya did except Hopkins finished him while De La Hoya ran in the late rounds.
Hopkins touched on it after the fight but the thing that impressed me most was his defense. He kept his right hand high the entire night because Tito was looking for that big left hook all fight. Same thing Lewis did to Tua. But Hopkins was even better because he kept moving left and making Trinidad fight mostly with his right and Tito couldn't do it.
Hopkins vs. Jones should be a good fight. I dunno how I could take a 36 year old middleweight to beat Jones but Hopkins looks damn good right now. I hope they make that fight soon because it should be the fight of the year.
