If Hopkins beats Adamek this year, will he be your p4p#1?

If B-Hop KO's Adameck he is a shoe-in for #1.

 

it maybe the first ever that the p4p king fought only once in a year...i would say yes if hatton beats pac

 

there is no choice of.... Yes, if hatton beats pacquiao

 

in this case it's the stuff of legend because it's pure fiction...so improbable that it should be a bedtime story used to scare kids away from jumping up 25 pounds once they reach their mid-forties to fight a dangerous opponent needlessly while saddled with enough extra muscle weight to nullify the advantages (footspeed, handspeed, flexibility, mobility) that would be needed to win. this is just b-hop talking and pipe dreaming, i think, lest we forget all his talk about moving up to heavy to fight oleg maskaev. there was no real possibility of that ever happening, but it whipped up absurdist allegiances, the way it always does.

 

no. is this a serious question? lol.

 

Does anyone know Hopkins walking around weight? I just don't see how he can get close to 200lbs to fight Adamek. It's just unlikely that he'll be in fighting condition at anything over 180 no matter how many months he hires Mackey Shilstone.

 

Adamek was fighting at LHW himself only less than a year and a half ago, he's hardly a monster.

and he lost to Chad Dawson. Why would Hopkins become P4P the best boxer in the world by beating Adamek?

Bizarre.

 

if PAC still winning against title holder like Hatton "6th div for PAC" no one could eclipse his achievement unless you are hater!

 

if pac beats hatton decisively, I'd still put him in my no1 lb4lb

 

Its close enough that it would come down to the fashion in which Hopkins beat Adamek and the fashion in which Pac beat Hatton, assuming thats how it plays out.

 

Adamek beat USS for the top 200 spot. Adamek is a two weight champ. Lost to a very talented and future star Bad Chad Dawson in a descent scrap and managed to put Dawson on his azz, if I remember correctly. Hell yeah, the aged but crafty warrior deserves numero uno P4P.

Hatton is a really really good 140 #er that PAC MAN is about to KTFO! PBF already tapped dat azz big time, by KO. Ricky showed his rugged onslaught in his loyal return with sub-par competition, nonetheless ok comp. Showed his limitedness (is that a word?) against Luis Collazo in which I thought he lost in a vey good scrap. Damn, is Collazo always getting shafted in his big fights? Berto should of said, "**** the judges, I'm giving the title to that bad ass, slick mutha****ing boriqua from Nueva York!"

Oh damn, I forgot about the mutha****ing beast that surprised my azz at lightweight with the man ( I know he should of lost against Santa Cruz, but we all know as loyal fight mutha****in fans, he didn't get up for that fight and it showed how he came in all soft and lethargic. Joel didn't train for that. Can we really blame him? He's human and we probably do the same thang! He fought the bosses at LW after PBF left. BTW, Jose Luis Castillo was robbed a win from the so called P4P #1 "emeritus". After fighting at such a high level of competition and finances, we would probably lack inspiration in the gym too. Anyhow, JMM did the damn thing with the "lineal" champion in Joel Casamayor and the young pit-bull stud Juan Diaz. What's next for him? If he gets in there with some serious risk taking like the ATG status in BHOP I may change my mind.

 

surely in P4P the age doesn't matter? Even if he is 50, in P4P it means nothing different from beating that guy when you were in your prime, for personal achievment it means a lot, and HOF credentials but not P4P!

 

If he wins convincingly, yes.

If he were to go on and beat Valuev and retire he would cement himself in my P4P All-Time top 20.

 

Little to no chance of that happening. Surviving for 12 rounds with a two-weight World champion destroyer with an iron chin is as good an achievement as getting a stoppage.
