Give Bernard Hopkins his just due!

[bigstinkybug]

*U can argue the point that Hagler went undefeated his whole career... his loses were suspect & career,a highlight reel of strong tough ko's over strong tough rugged fighters... Willie Monro, Ray seals, juan Rodon, Mustafa Hamsho... people forget all these guys...

Hearns was middleweight fighting at welter... the fight is generally considered one of the most brutal...the first round is copnsidered the greatest in boxing history... and u have the nerve to question whether Hagler is an all time great?

Mugabi was an undeafeated young up and comer..with huge power.. the result was a brutal war... it can be said both guys ruined eachother.

Hopkins middleweight career is filled with fouls..holding, headbutts and rolling around on the cancas faking low blows... the question should be how he got away with it for all his career... sure, has talent... but comp was suspect at middleweight and antics were ridiculous

in the end, the way i see it...Hagler would beat all the fighters Hopkins beat at middleweight and & rather easily... The same coulnt be said about Hopkins vs Hagler comp...

and if u ask... i think 95% believe Hagler would crush Hopkins in a fight...
