    I know the likes of Sugar Tocker Pudwill, Rick Thornberry and Kabary Salem would all probably KO Hopkins so they are not included, but who else? Evans Ashira? :think

    I don't think Hopkins would have too much trouble with one-dimensional Kessler.

    Eubank would've probably beaten Hopkins.

    None. Kessler wouldn't be humiliated but he'd clearly loose.
    Bika would be a pain for Hopkins but still drop a ud.

    I think Kessler is too 1 dimensional to beat b hop, Bika would have given b hop a tough fight as he does everyone but would very likely have lost I would say Eubank would have a chance of beating hopkins especially as he was a big super middle and tough as nails.

    they all have a common thread - even Hokins. The fact they all lost to Super Joe.

    its a tough one when you consider that hopkins lost to clinton mitchell, drew with mercado and lost to hypejob jermaine taylor twice :lol:

    infact, hopkins got in the ring in 7 fights and wasn't good enough to come out as the winner :oops::oops::oops::oops::oops:

    Spot on.

    :smoke

    Oh, and by the way, Kessler & Eubank would both have beaten Hopkins, in my opinion. Jones already beat him, and in addition, Brewster, Reid, Bika & also possibly Woodhall would havea ll if nto beaten him each time out, certainly given him a tough fight.
