Best P4P Mayweather or Hopkins?

[Bx730NY]

Neither of the 2. Hopkins got a gift against Winky and his best work has been against guys moving way up while mayweather just fights the most vulnerable money making fighters.

I totally Agree with the Bold statement.

Like Floyd vs Castillo 1 but Floyd did gave him the rematch. I do admire that as a boxing fan

Ok Genius. So if all the boxing experts are wrong and PBF isnt the P4P champ, and its not BHOP then who is it?

Hop has beaten more top p4p fighters in the last few years. As for now Id say Hopkins is p4p #1. Winky was also higher on the p4p list than Hatton prior to Hop beating him. Its close and Mayweather may be #1 p4p he has a good case, but if the old man beats Calzaghe, hes #1 for sure and it could even be argued he is as top 10 fighter of all time imo.

And if Floyd beats Cotto will they be equal? What do you think?

By the way
I'm Rooting fot Cotto and JC

No, i think Calzaghe is p4p higher than Cotto as of now, but who knows if Floyd ever fights Cotto while hes still undefeated. I think he will wait for him to lose. If Floyd fights Cotto while hes undefeated I think Cotto beats him. And I also think Joe outworks Hopkins.

How about Pac who has done nothing but ko and retire legend after legend and will continue the trend in 2 weeks.

I go with PBF. He's putting together a Pernell Whitaker like career now, an elusive defensive artiste who's proven to be an unsolvable enigmatic puzzle. No one really beat Pernell in his prime, and floyd is in a similar situation.

B-hops had a great career, but floyd's had one of genius.

[Taeth]

Mayweahter is by far the best fighter in the world, he counter punches better than Hopkins, he has better defense than Hopkins, he's faster than Hopkins, he's won all of his fights. Hopkins is a great fighter, but he barely beat Winky, he's slowed down, and he isn't the same guy he used to be, but he's never been as good as Mayweather. There is no aspect of the fight game he does better than Mayweather anymore like I said... he used to be a better inside fighter than Mayweather, but now he isn't, he used to be a better fighter coming forward, but not anymore. I don't see how you can even compare these two... many of the boxing "pros" already place Mayweather's career higher than B-Hop's p4p and he is only 30.

Barnard Hopkins?? Are people forgetting that he was twice beaten by Jermain Taylor?

For that reason, Kelly Pavlik deserves to be as one of the top 5 p4p then.

So u believe that 130 Pac would beat PBF when he was 130? Keep dreaming he wouldnt have had a chance.
Pac has fought lots of old fighters for money, similiar to what u accuse PBF of doing.
You say PBF should fight Cotto MArgo Williams Quintana to prove he is best?
Well Pac should fight Guzman, Valero, Diaz, Katsidis instead of fighters 5 years past their prime.

[Taeth]

People will never be happy with what these guys are doing. People wanted pacquaio to fight Barrera again, but when the chance came and he took it people were mad he didn't fight Marquez, now he is fighitng Marquez and people don't even appreciate that and are now complaining that he wants to face Hatton without cleaning out the 135 wieght division, but my question is why after a fighter clears out one or two weight divisions do they need to clear out every single wieght division along the way? He's done everything everybody has wanted so now let him do his own thing

As for Hopkins he's #4 on everybody's list at the moment so I don't know why people think him above Calzaghe or Pacquaio deserve any type of challenge to PBF's crown.

Pac beat up Barrera 5 years ago. What are you talking about?

Plus, saying a prime Pac wouldn't have had a chance against a raw 130 PBF is an unsourced statement.

If PBF mixed the craftiness he has now with the lightning speed he had at 130 he'd beat PAC everyday of the week. I'd say raw 130 PBF would beat PAC.

Everyone analyses PBF's record so lets look at PACs.

Last 8 fights
3k Battery, not a great fighter.
Erik Morales, PAC lost
Hector Velasquez, not a great fighter
Erik Morales, good win for PAC.
Oscar Larios, moved up 2 divisions to fight PAC, had just been Ko'd in 3 by 122 Vasquez
ERik Morales Morales more than SHOT
Jorge Solis not a great fighter
MAB was old and SHOT.

PAC is a great fighter, but u cannot accuse PBF of ducking guys and only fighting easy money fights when PAC does exactly the same thing.
