Certainly your not going to suggest Tito at 160 was anywere near the hall of Fame legacy he forged at 147 are you?

Tarver got Karma in his face by being drained from a heavy in Rocky Balboa.

Glen Johnson wasnt nearly as good at 160 than he was at 175 either..Glen was a construction worker/slash boxer until he got his big break against Jones

I would actually favor Johnson over Hop now at 175 based on Glens chin, workrate and constant pressure. Hop trying to spoil on the inside wouldnt deter Glen since he likes it messy on the inside. Hopkins enemic output would be his demise against Johnsons aggression and volume
dude don't try to downplay Hopkins' wins cause it'll come back to bite you in the ass, mainly cause it can easily be done with Mayweather

Corrales, Hernandez, Chavez, and Castillo weren't at their peak when Mayweather took them on (Chavez & Hernandez still hadn't won titles, and Castillo although he should have a win over Mayweather wasn't the fighter that basically owned the lightweight division till his fight with Corrales)
Corley had already lost to Judah, Gatti already shot, Mitchell was already way past it, Judah had already lost to Baldomir, do i believe any of that crap, no, but it can easily be implicated

1st and foremost your way off point here, no one is discrediting Hopkins wins, for the upteenth time I am drawing a comparison and pointing out that you cant label Mayweather as a guy who all of a sudden has made a habit out of fighting smaller guys, when Hops biggest wins were against undersized opponents, you cant escape that reality its truthful factual information.

Then you are spouting off all the guys Floyd fought and are rambling on about how they werent this or that, when it reality Floyd beat those guys WHO WERE HIS OWN SIZE OR BIGGER THAN HIM, then you are using severly delusional hindsight to say they didnt do this that or the other thing till after Floyd.

Go ahead dude put your money were your mouth is and make a whole new thread out on the main board and knock Mayweathers wins against Castillo, Corrales, Chavez etc. and see what kind of responses you'll get. I'll be sure to wear kevlar boxers so I dont get bit in the ass to bad
