    The experiment has failed miserably. The sport needs to return to same day weigh-ins.

    Hopkins might sneak into top 5 middleweight. I don't remember my list but I might have him there. But top 5 p4p? He is delusional.

    Prime Jones easily beat prime Hopkins, why isn't he on Hopkins' list higher than B-Hop?

    Many others like Langford, Moore, Charles and Greb would have beaten B-Hop.

    Many ATGs have believed that they are the best, this is a common mindset amongst great Fighters.

    I am a big Hopkins fan, but he's about as close to number 5 all time, as Floyd is to number one.

    Your arrogance and presumption are staggering.

    Good MW and ATG lists however.

    It would be interesting to hear, in his words, why he ranks higher than Mayweather. Id say Jones but he probably would use Jones late losses against him.

    The only thing I can think of as to how he could rate himself over Floyd is number of title defenses and being the oldest to xyz.

    But when genuinely assessing their careers as they should be assessed, who they beat... and who they lost to... its hard for me to rate him over Floyd.
