Is it fair that Bernard Hopkins is currently still in the p4p top ten?

    Yeah I agree with you but you guys are trashing the magazine as if it is just them, they are just posting the ratings that come in. If you read there articles and not just the ratings its actually a really good magazine.

    Hopkins is boring as bat **** and made Roy look half competitive with his whining in their last fight. Time to hang them up, he's had a great career, can only tarnish it by hanging around.

    Bull****.

    Name the guys that campaign at 168 or above regularly that Hopkins has beaten.

    Tarver.
    Roy Jones Jr.

    That's it.

    Jones Jr is shot to ****, and Hopkins made him look less than that, and had to mug, cheat and grimace his way through that.

    Of course he is not in the top 10. It's not even close. If he fights Dawson close, and even if he loses maybe he would be ranked high, but right now he is nowhere near the top 10.

    Of course not.

    It would be just as crazy as if Shane Mosley was ranked in top 10.

    But... we know that the Ring is owned by Oscar... and yeah... corruption.

    Just noticed that Hopkins is now out the top ten and about time too!

    Still, credit to Ring - though they took their time.
