    Hopkins would easily beat ggg if they fought. Beat him like he did that other hope hype Kelly Pavlick. Hopkins says he can make 160. So I hope you ggg nuthuggers tempt Hopkins to fight him. Yes I know you all that stupid! Hopkins is Legend!

    First stoppage loss for the "Alien". He won't face Stevenson or Kovalev at this point either.

    They said the same about Tarver and Pavlick. Both of them were much more accomplished!

    Everybody is ducking GGG, how do you expect him to be accomplished? Do you consider his amazing amateur record as not accomplished? :rofl

    I'd give Hopkins a good chance of beating GGG, Kovalev or Stevenson. None of these fighters have been in with as awkward a fighter as Hopkins.

    Yes. Hopkins, even at this age, is the ultimate test for young(er) boxers.

    He can't hang with the absolute elite anymore and he knows it. Anybody with the range and skill to jab him will beat him, as will any skilled pressure fighter.

    But he's not going to make it easy. Golovkin would have reach and height disadvantages, he's also not a workrate monster. He's quite hittable and he doesn't throw the most elaborate combinations.
    There's a good chance Hopkins frustrates the hell out of him.

    There's also a good chance he knocks Hopkins out.
    Would be a good fight. The best Hopkins could make.

    Ha ha why is Hopkins fighting bums and not the best in the division? Because he will get beat by gg and kovalev, Hopkins will never fight these two fact!

    That's a bold statement, but ya' never know... It's...


    "The Alien"
     
  13. Hopkins is the only American fighter I respect but there is no way, that he could beat GGG. Hopkins should fight against some bums like Fonfara and before he turns 50 expose some other hypejob such as Froch.
    He should avoid GGG and Kovalev.

    When I see BHop having to exert himself against the Karo Murats of the boxing world, I know it's time for him to be hanging 'em up.

    I don't think anyone takes Froch for more than he is. A solid world champion. I'm yet to see any SRR comparisons. You don't get Froch's CV by being a fraud.
