Twice by Mercado, once by Mills Lane, & I think...that Echols downed him on a slip.

Hopkins is one tuff fwocker...still can never understand how people don't dig on my guy...but to each his or her own.
It was my good fortune that the first time I saw Hopkins fight was his rematch against Echols where he knocked him out with one arm. I've been kicking myself for not putting money on his fight with Trinidad for years. Been sold on him ever since.
Cheers to that...also...don't think I've give you the proper forum welcome so : Welcome to the forum. Have the Obligatory Wacko Welcome Wagon

Now that the formalities are out of the way...let me start by saying this...I never NEVER bet on boxing anymore. The last two years I've had some shitty luck on my picks...it's so bad that I don't even get involved in the forum picks by my guy killersheepish. Heh heh heh.

Anywho, Hopkins is an amazing fighter...hands down one of the best fighters to grace the ring of the last decade...he and Mayweather have one of the most diverse array of skills in the game.
