    You're talking about a prime Hopkins which was 97-03, when he was at his best. You're at out of your mind if you think Mayweather could beat a prime Hopkins. A prime Hopkins resembles very little of the Hopkins we see today. Think of this Hopkins during his prime was sharper, faster, and had a better workrate, who do you think would win?

    Hopkins will know how to corner Floyd, thats why he would destroy him.

    Hopkins here, a great small man against a great bigger man, the bigger man wins. Floyd would be considerably slower if he had to bulk up to 158lbs at that, while Hopkins would probably weigh 170lbs on fight night. And what if Hopkins did not care about making the catchweight of 158lbs? Would he get a free pass like Floyd got?
