    at middle or light heavy your choice

    Hopkin's wins at both wieghts, and I don't even need to use the Philly bias for this one.

    Hopkins, Walker isn't quite as good against pure boxers

    H2H Hopkins is a beast at the weight. His loss to Jones is an indictment of how good Jones was as opposed to how limited Hopkins was.

    Awesomely talented with an underrated athleticism during his prime.
