    He was a full fledged MW by the time of the Hopkins fight.

    You are truly a the load your momma should have swallowed!!! Trinadad and ODH were both belt holders at 160. Sugar Ray Robinson was a welter, does that make his accomplishments worthless at 160? Or the guys he beat to get the belt sorry bums that lost to a blown up welter! You sure are stupid! Learn some boxing history, it's not unusual for a guy to move up in weight. You guys are just trying to justify 3G calling up a welter. There is a difference from what Hops did and what 3G is doing. I hope you're smart enough to figure out the difference on your own...or should I explain it to you! Dummy!!!

    And Hopkins is a natural Light Heavyweight. What's your point? Are you claiming they were both the same size, lmfao? Hopkins started and finished his career at LHW. That was Trinidads second fight at MW

    The ATG Delahoya who was just beaten by the fierce and unstoppable Felix Sturm lol. Kell Brook can't compare to the great Felix Sturm 😁

    Trinidad was the one who called out B-Hop. He was way favorite and was going to go after RJJ next. He still fought RJJ but way later.

    I don't remember the ODH history but think it was around the time they became partners with Golden Boy so I am sure there were some publicity reasons for it.

    Both of these fighters were ATGs and Hopkins was actually the underdog in the Tito fight dummy.:deal Anymore dumbass question for why you're trying to justify this farce between GGG and Brook?
