I've been waiting for this fight for some time!
The more youthful and talented fighter will prevail in this fight. Don't think for a minute that Trinidad hasn't used Hopkins antics as a tremendous motivational tool throughout training. He will look to punish Hopkins. Hopkins is a wiley veteran who feels he has a lot to prove.. but the talent just is not there to stand up to Trinidad in this confrontation.
In addition, if there is on thing to consider when wagering on boxing it is which fighter do the " powers that be" have more invested in. In this case, without a shadow of a doubt, it is Trinidad. Everyone involved(fans, promotors, pay per view, future venue, etc) has more interest in seeing Jones -Trinidad. If this fight happens to come down to a decision ( which I don't think will happen but is possible considering Hopkins ability to survive and adapt) don't think ol' Don hasn't greased the judges like a whore at midnight to cover his intersts.
I'm just waiting on the line to drop but I feel strong about Trinidad. What about you? Let's get some banter started so that we can cover every concievable angle.
