How Can Anyone Now Rank Hopkins Lower than Roy Jones?

[ImRipped]

bernard hopkins should most definatly be rank higher then roy jones...yes bhop lost to roy...lets look at what happen afterwards...roy division hoops hand picking oppenents...while bhop built a legacy in the middleweight division...bhop sat at his kingdom and all who came to take it from him he face...ROY went on a journey going on to fight abc champions in different division...prime or not...ROY was finally hit flush and he was knock out...and that was the end of roy...bhop reaching 40 loses twice by close fights to taylor...goes on to challenge tarver the man who banish roy...and bhop dominates tarver at the age of 41 at roy's lightheavy division...

its a matter of who survive longer...at 41 bhop still has never been hurt or knock out...between the two of them bhop outlast roy...bhops technically rough and tough style against roys speed and atletic style in 12 rounds or in a career speed and atleticism will decrease more...while technic and inner toughness will always remain if not increase...

I have a question though...
list me someone alike trinidad and oscar that roy has fought? (note bhop k.o both tito and oscar)

(tarver glen k.o jones both lost to bhop)

weren't tito and oscar both smaller than bhop? and didn't roy beat the S*** out of pound for pound king James toney? james toney is better than everyone hopkins ever faced...except roy of course...

name one fighter that benard hopkins beat that was on top of the pound for pound list..... in fact the only fighter he that was even ranked pound for pound was tito and tito was the smaller man moving up..so go figure...

Slow down there Burt Sugar, Toney had to kill himself to make 168 for that fight, just like Jones had to kill himself to make 175 for Tarver. It wasn't the great Roy we all know that Tarver beat, and it wasn't the great Toney we all know that Roy beat. And on top of that, Hopkins wasn't favored over either Trinidad or Tarver.

p.s.--Toney was never p4p king. Last I checked Pernell Whitaker held that distinction at that time.

doesn't matter if hop was favored..he was the bigger man...so why did it surprise anyone that the bigger man knocked out the smaller men?.....that just says that even the odds makers bought into the superstar hype and not common sense.....even if toney was number two..he's still better than anyone bhop ever faced.....

Did the bigger man beat the smaller man last night? Do you realize in every one of your posts you shoot yourself in the foot with a stupid contradiction? Hopkins victory last night over Tarver is better than any single victory Roy Jones ever had. Bernard skipped a division to face the undisputed light heavyweight champ, and kicked his @ss. Roy skipped a division to face the biggest hand picked joke of a heavyweight champ in history. And by the way, Hopkins' winning of the lightheavyweight title is far better than Roy's, considering Bernard didn't spend 3 years getting ready at 168. He went strait from 160 to 175 in, what, 6 months.
