At 175, Bernard Hopkins is neither an Atg nor a Hall of Famer. His record there is 9 wins, 3 losses, 2 draw or nc. And that doesn't include his debut at 177, which he lost. He has 0 kos at 175. You want to claim he's an atg at 160, go right ahead. But at 175, give him props for his longevity, not his nothing special record.
Ok. So Kovalev beat an atg middleweight at 175 as a 9-3-2 record with no ko victories and no great victories at that weight certainly does not indicate an atg at that weight.
Your arguement is nonsense I suppose floyd isn't an ATG at welter or light middle as he has no KO's there An ATG is an ATG even if they leave their original weight class
atschThat wasn't my point. I wrote Hopkins can be considered an atg at 160. He has done nothing to convince anyone he's an atg at 175. Absolutely nothing. He has an average record there. Floyd never had 3 losses and 2 draws in 14 fights at any weight. Why would you even bring him into this discussion?
So leaving your weigh class to go up deletes your ATG status Hopkins became the oldest champion ever at light heavy You're an idiot
I never wrote Hopkins wasn't an atg at 160. I wrote he wasn't one at 175. You completely missed the point. Or, do you believe Hopkins is an atg lightheavy, yes or no?
