No one else even a tiny bit suspicious about Hopkins?

[ross]

Jermain was a very good fighter until the partying caught up with him....and also the end of both of the fights vs Hopkins probably made him damaged goods.

Hopkins is who he is, he's always been a difficult fight because he's so damned cagey. He's awkward & strong & a good ring general, but I will say I hate the dude. I just wish Roy Jones Jr rematched him a lot sooner than when he did, but also that was B-Hop's doing as well as he wasn't going to leave 160 til he got beaten & Roy could no longer make the weight.

I wonder how Hop would have done vs Eubank, Benn, Collins, Jackson, Toney et al

Eubank, Benn and Toney would have all beaten Hopkins. He struggled with class middleweights, genuine natural middleweights.

Benn style was fucking made for Hopkins. He would of been embarrassed.

I spose abenns style was also taylor made for McClellan too. If that fight had never happened and McClellan had had to retire right before that fight, this is exactly what would have been said about it. It was almost true but for Benn being a hard stubborn bastard.

FFS, it's tailor made, like a suit.

Do you actually watch these fights? or just look at stats on boxrec? McClellan's style is nothing like Hopkins', so why bring him up? You would have been better placed to bring up awkward fighters like Malinga or Eubank, both of whom beat Benn and neither of whom are as good as Hopkins.

It was. If that joke of a ref didn't keep pushing McClellan off Benn, Benn doesn't make it out the first. And that's a fact. Watch the fight. And count how many times the ref was seperating them for no reason. Benn was getting slaughtered. The ref saved him
