    Very rare, it's like super human to pick up a good win after 45 years old.
    Of course Foreman picking up some good wins(considered a robbery vs Briggs).

    Holmes vs Butterbean at 51 years old! :)

    After he turned 45 Bernard Hopkins beat Roy Jones Jr, Jean Pascal, Tavoris Cloud, Karo Murat and Beibut Shumenov.

    Jean Pascal was arguably the best of these wins retrospectively.

    I feel that beats Foreman's win over Moorer as Big George was being dominated before the knockout.

    I dunno I think the fact he got to spend his early 40s following prime Jack Dempsey gives him an unfair advantage.

    Haha oh man, been a while since I saw the people's champ in action. After he takes that cheap shot on Sr, who rushed the ring and whooped on Charlie?

    Moorer was clearly better than Pascal, Shumenov or Cloud
