Fight of the Millenium...Possibly tomorrow night!!!
 
...Middleweight Champion Jermain Taylor will give Bernard Hopkins his rematch in what could be a spectacular boxing match. In July, Taylor shocked the world and ended Hopkins 12 year win streak and 20 title defense win streak by knocking off the middleweight King. Hopkins doesnt believe he got beat.....BUT he did. I saw it on PPV and scored the fight myself 116-113. Now the score will be settled in what could be one of the greatest fights of the new millenium. Im tuning in....and for a price of $50 you can also watch the announcer say "AND STILL" Just like last time they said "AND NEW"

I predict typical boxing BS. This is why I don't watch boxing.

I'll add "anymore" to the end of that sentence.

I'm pumped, but I'm a boxing fan. I seriously don't get the "outrage" by everyone thinking Hopkins won that fight. It's simple freaking addition. He didn't get a 10-8 round, so there you go. I think if Taylor is more relaxed and not as hectic he could knock out Hopkins. On the other hand Hopkins did get the 2nd half of the fight and seemed to have figured out Taylor.

Hopkins is a slow starter, but he got Taylor's number at the end. Now that he knows how to fight him, it's going to be a tough fight for Taylor. Bernard took it nice and easy last time, finding his footing at his own pace, a little too confident that that was good enough. Now that he knows it isn't and says he knows he must get a knockout to win, he's going to be at his best, and better than what Taylor sampled last time. This will be very interesting. I just hope it's decisive, so Hopkins doesn't have to go out with either him or the public feeling that the question of which guy is better was never really answered.
