    I know you're from Grand Rapids, but it's honestly hard to take you seriously when you say something like that.

    SRL is definitely one of the ATG, he's top 15 if not top 10 in my book, but that also leaves plenty of other boxers of that weight class who could have beaten him. Especially his namesake.

    I been saying this for awhile, give 20-30 more years SRL will be considered the ATG #1.

    I've mentioned him already. But Robinson was beatable at welter, not by many though.

    No way. He has 4 big names on his resume. There are fighters who have 3-4 times as much.

    No way. You could say he lost to Hagler and he was DEFINITELY beat in the Hearns rematch. Erase every loss and add a Pryor win and he still doesn't make it.

    i think you should stoip thinking. prime for prime hopkins has no problem with any middleweight not named roy jones. not to say he beats them, but jones is the only one i can see consistently beating him. sugar ray lenord wasn't the hardest to hit, and got his best wins against people who didn't use movement very well. lenord's aggressive style and combinations would play right into hopkins' counter punching ability.

    He was pretty amazing. Was there any part of his game he didnt do exceptionally well? Offense, defense, combinations, footwork, speed, power, chin, heart, athleticsm, reflexes, ring smarts...
