Has Hopkins ever fought a decent fighter at their own weight class?

    yup, people want to use the weak excuse that dlh, trinidad, pavlik ( and pavlik was a big mw anyway) came up in weight but if they were really better then hopkins, then they would have won. hagler and monzon fought welterwieghts too.
