Not to compare Hopkins with the almighty Duran or anything, but I don't think that Hopkins' quality of opposition at middleweight was any worse than Duran's at lightweight.
When I wrote Duran, I knew somebody would make that comparison and you have a point

The thing is with both Hopkins and Duran I am convinced that even if they had''ve faced tougher opposition the result would've been the same as they are both awesome.
Then what was your point? I know how you feel about Duran, but did you mean what you said about Hopkins level of opposition or not?
