Not a fan of Hopkins at all i just don't like to see fighters get discredited when it isn't warranted. And i would hardly say Hopkins got taxed by Calzaghe, in fact i had Hopkins winning the fight by 1 point because of the knockdown in the 1st round. And to say Hopkins sucks is just ignorant he is probably the 3rd best Middleweight ever but he sucks ??![]()
Im talking as a person he acted like a girl after both Taylor fights and the Calzaghe fight. I am not discrediting him i just dont think he could beat Calzaghe at any stage of his career.
The guy is a big 175lb fighter he dwarfed Calzaghe who spent all of his career at 168, i happen to think it is shocking that his best wins are over Oscar and Tito. He reigned over the worst 160lb division ever and i dont like the way he fights, he talks better than he fights.
i have to add the best two 160lb fighters he ever faced beat him.
3rd best 160lb fighter ever? pull the other one.
cory spinks vs. mayorga
Hopkins started at a lower weight class than Calzaghe and spent majority of his career at that weight class, Calzaghe had to really drain himself to make Super Middleweight limit meaning he was really a natural Light Heavyweight, even he stated he felt really good at Light Heavyweight because he didn't have to starve himself. And why isn't Hopkins top 3 Middleweight of all time ?? i only have Monzon and Hagler ahead of him, Robinson was too hot and cold at Middleweight he had a record of 8-6 in Middleweight title fights i believe, and then theres Harry Greb but i have no knowledge on boxing that far back, nor is there any footage of him so i can't rate him, if you think my statement is ridiculous then tell me any other Middleweight who is higher than him except Monzon and Hagler ??
Talyor-Spinks was horrible. I feel a sleep after the 10th round. Maybe I was too excited to see Pav knock out Miranda.

He beat Tunney who was one of the greatest heavy weights of all time. That would be like Mayweather beating David Haye.
Sorry ICB....here you go buddy.
