He is not one of the top 10 fighters ever, don't get carried away. He is a fucking great fighter, but he wasn't better then Mayweather or Roy Jones Jr. once again going by p4p criteria they would have both beaten him. Mayweather has a similar skill set to Hopkins but is way faster. Roy Jones Jr in modern boxing was in a class of his own even though his competition wasn't the best ever, James Toney was way better then Pavlik and Roy did the same thing to him. Hell Roy even beat Bernard with a broken hand. Not that Bernard isn't close to them, but he isn't at their level let alone the Ray Robinson's of the world.
