I hope Hopkins looks better in this fight then he did in the Taylor fights. If not, this will be a easy win for Tarver.

TARVER AND HOPKINS AGREE TO TERMS FOR JUNE 10 PPV!
Sources directly involved with the situation have informed Boxingtalk.com that Golden Boy Promotions and Joe DeGuardia's Star Boxing have verbally agreed to all terms for light heavyweight king Antonio "The Magic Man" Tarver to face former longtime middleweight champion and former pound for pound king Bernard "The Executioner" Hopkins on HBO PPV June 10. Tarver and Hopkins will split the pot 50-50 down the middle and Tarver will be enter the ring and be introduced last. No official word on the site, but Atlantic City, New Jersey is definitely in the running.

i thought that Hopkins won the first fight, but i have yet to see the second one with taylor. I always hate to see a legend come down from the high bar they set.

Prime Hopkins does not beat Tarver.
