Even though Robinson's Middleweight record in Championship fights was something like 8-6. I would still favor Robinson, Robinson has very good movement which would give Hopkins fits, plus Robinson's hand speed would give Hopkins even more trouble, i see Robinson winning 12 round UD.
The thing with that is,he was past his best,he was mostly winning the rematches and correct me if I'm wrong,but he there were no intermediate weights at the time,so he jumped from 147 to 160 and fought the best which makes it even more amazing imo!He was also fighting guys in their backyards too.

I'd favour Robinson too.I think he had the speed and power to win.

Here is interesting Question for you El Gamo, do you think younger aggressive Hopkins would do better against Robinson. Or the older version ??
