If Bhops record is overrated, whose isnt?

That still doesn't get away from the fact that 3 of his best wins have came against fighters much smaller.

The name are nice to have but they are not GREAT wins.

i will agree with you to a point...

BUT there realy isnt a fighter outside heavy wou could stay in a devision to dominate it and had a great win record...

Sure i think hopkins should of left middle after he beat tito to fight names, as the devision was dead... and i will always hold that against him when i think about where he lays in all time, personaly i think he stayed there knowing it was dead and he had it easy...

but a fighter does have the right to stay and set records in the weight the rule in...

i argue with my self over this topic lol

He did dominate, no doubt. But there was actualy another fighter below HW dominating his weight. Joe C.

Ok, to those people who say his best wins are against guys much smaller: GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR BOOTY.

Trinidad was coming off of a TOTAL DESTRUCTION of a huge Middleweight in William Joppy before fighting Bhop, so for those of you who say he was no threat you know NOTHING about boxing.

Bernard Hopkins is an absolute SCIENTIST in the ring. He's not the most exciting fighter but "exciting" and "great fighter" do not mean the same thing. He knew every trick in the book and he is one of the hardest guys to fight in boxing history because he takes guys out of their game and drags them into deep water. IMO the #3 MW of all time behind Hagler and Monzon (and YES, ahead of SRR who was better at WW)

Joppy was a B- fighter at best who held a title in a weak division. Anytime he stepped up in class he was soundly beaten.

He wasn't the biggest of 160 guys either (like your stating).

Hopkins is very strong at 175 and was an absolute monster down at 160...So basicaly we had a strong light heavyweight going against a former WW in that one. Dont make it something it wasn't.

You should have hooked him Andrew.

Hopkins is one loud mouth twat who needs to retire. His style is the worst in boxing. No wonder he has barely any fans I hope Pavlik knocks him out.
