Mikey Garcia is a boss

[Alpha]

Hopkins went straight to 175 after the 2nd Taylor fight, although the Wright and Pavlik fights were at 170 catchweights.

Little different scenario though. If Mikey has started at 135 and stayed there many years then moved up it would be similar.

I was replying to Tito, who had said Hopkins had gone to 168.

Holy sh*t you're right! He just up and skipped over super middleweight and into light heavyweight. I stand corrected.
That was impressive, going up and beating Tarver.

I wasn't trying to sound like a know it all or anything, just pointing out what happened.

Tarver was arguably the lineal champ as well.
