    I am not gonna comment but you really think deep down to yourselves. I simply love B'Nard. He's skillful, super-smart and crafty, well-conditioned, cold minded and pretty intimidating, a real chess match master in defense and counter-offense.

    I love Hopkins, he's one of my all time favorites and top 25-30 ATG! Even being as big a fan as I am of him, I cannot seriously consider putting him in the top 10.

    What a group of ****ing morons. He's a borderline top 10 middleweight of all time, a division that has been absolute **** since Monzon-Bienvenuti.

    Your lack of boxing knowledge is remarkable.

    What a group of legends he beat. Faced Robert Allen 3 times and only quit once. What a legend.

    Lipsey, Allen, Allen, Allen, Haakar, Council, Vanderpool, James, Carl Daniels.

    What a reign of terror. Then fought 3 welterweights, and the ghost of Roy Jones after bitching out of facing him for 10 years.

    The fact that you are all so stupid to get fooled by this guy is incredulous to me.

    I agree BHop is not a top 10 ATG, but he most def a top 10 MW, and IMO top 5.

    - Longest reigning MW champion of all time
    - Cleared out the division from 96 - 05 and beat whoever was available until dethroned by robbery
    - First man in history to unify the WBC, WBA, IBF, WBO and The Ring titles

    Monzon, Hagler, Greb, and Hopkins are to be mentioned in the same sentence when talking about MW history.

    How about guys still fighting?

    Barrera

    Jack Johnson
    Loughran
    Jack O'Brien
    Kilbane
    Ted Lewis
    Kilbane?

    Of course you haven't, b/c you're ignorant enough to believe some cheating, quitter with no pride is even close to a top 50 spot of all time.

    1) He was ****ing champion when he beat Trinidad, not when he won a worthless ****ing trinket dip****. He lost it when he didn't fight for 6 rounds and lost to Taylor in 2005. That's four ****ing years, and quite a few ****ing fighters in the 120 years of modern Boxing history have done that. Especially over a **** poor division.
    2) Robbery?! hahahaha! He didn't throw ****ing punches until round 7 but he got robbed. :lol::rofl Hopkins fans live in another universe.
    3) oooooh he unified titles!?!? :rofl In the 120 year history of modern boxing there were plenty of undisputed champions, and they did so in divisions that were actually mediocre.

    Hopkins is #11 middleweight of all time. You don't know **** about boxing to think that Hopkins can be named in the same ****ing sentence as Harry Greb.

    I said and agian let me repeat it very slowly **** stick, his career is a top 25 atg but there are a **** ton of people in front of him and as far as your list go who the **** cares this is all about WHAT SOMEONE THINKS its not written in stone jackass. and as far as boxing knowledge goes well son i know alot about the sweet science more then some less then others but i dont expect a tool like you to understand the difference
