    I actually think he'd beat Stevenson. Keep him away from Kovalev though.

    While I certainly don't believe he's scared of anyone, he's not an idiot either. He's already financially set, so legacy will obviously play a role in every career decision he makes from now on.
    He undoubtedly understands the mark he'll leave on boxing history if he continues to win at his age, so I can't really blame him for milking the belt a little. As long as he's fighting his mandatories, I really don't have a problem with what he's doing.
    If Stevenson or Kovalev really want the fight, they should climb the IBF ladder like everyone else( v Chimemba and/or Pascal) and force the issue.

    Hopkins is a great fighter but a racist bum, who if was white and said the same about a black boxer, he would have been kicked out of the sport.

    What the fock is proper weight? He beat Antonio Tarva coming up in weight and Pavlik and both were on the pfp list when he beat them.
    You could make the argument that he has truly been defeated only twice in his career.

    Hopkins is overrated. Tito was a fighter who started at 147, ODLH was a fighter who started at 130 while he started at 175. Couldnt beat Jermain Taylor, Roy Jones (when it counted) and quits against Dawson.
