i think tarver will win mainly because he will be like 190 after the day of the fight...bhop was gunshy because of taylor's power...imagine him against tarver...he will be to gunshy and 15 pounds doesnt do the 41 year old body any good...look for bhop to be slower and less agile..
however...tarver had to lose over 40 pounds because of the movie..and we all know he gases late...he gassed in the 10th against a fighter rjj who didnt do anything....
bhop makes you throw every punch in the book..
some things to think about..

lots of questiosn to be answered. the weight might be good for bhop cos his aging body has needed to move up for several years now. but there's a big difference between mid-30's and 41 year olds and moving up. Tarver losing all that weight could affect his power (remember roy jones? god that would be ironic!!!) i'm not gonna know who i think is gonna win until i see them face to face in the ring- cos the weight and the size is just hard to call right now.
i want bhop to win though, fuck tarver. heheh

Tarver is going to win... i honestly dont like either guy but i think Tarver will beat Hopkins the only chance Hopkins has IMO is if Tarver is exausted trying to make weight...

Tarvers power might help him win.
have you guys seen bhop at 175? bhop is a natural 160.. and thats his regular weight.
Weigh in at 160 but he walks around about 166 range.. its his natural weight. he's moving up in weight the right way. He's barely eating anything. He's looking to move up with muscle.
He looks THICK at 175. Bhop has a tall and linky figure. at 175 he looks like this is where he belongs.
When you see him and tarver ready to touch gloves.. you'l see that bhop looks like the more powerful of the two.
