1999-2001 version Bernard Hopkins vs GGG who wins and explain why

It's hard to say until we see Golovkin in the ring with a truly world class fighters such as Ward.

Right now I would choose 2001 Hopkins by UD

 

That Hopkins was 40 years old and drained at the weight we are talking 99-01 Hopkins who was prime and capable of fighting at a high pace.

Taylor is also a completely different style to Golovkin. Taylor is a much more difficult style match up for Hopkins than Golovkin. Hell when I come to think about it Golovkin hasn't even beaten anyone as good as Taylor let alone Hopkins.

 

My thoughts exactly. All the same, I still feel confident in assigning Golovkin a decent chance to win at this stage. Far more a chance than some people in this thread, specifically.

Would they be even odds (50/50)? No. But I would not consider it off to have Golovkin at 40-60 or even better odds.

 

At middleweight - GGG beats Tito...but a prime B-Hop Middleweight I doubt

 

Seriously? Take it easy guys.

 

OK, GGG has CHANCE against anybody he faces, doesn't mean he's LIKELY to beat Hopkins. That said, I love Golov, good at picking his shots, very technical as well, he'll give Hopkins a tough night, and who knows, maybe in a few years this'll seem like a stupid question the other way?

 

you're a hype machine
GGG still hasnt beaten a top MW and you have him beating tito who carried well up to MW

 

You think power is Hopkins' game? LOL!! Log off and learn the sport dumbass.

 

Hopkins is just simply better . With that being said GGG has some great potential.

 

GGG. All day long.
