    seems more than a coincidence though that he references Armstrong moving up to 160 and then making comparisons to fighters calling themselves TBE who didn't move up to that weight...
    I actually don't agree with him simply because fighters have different body types. look at Oscar and Floyd standing next to each other. Oscar is a much bigger guy in height and shape, yet they both started at super feather.
    Oscar moving up to 160 to fight Hopkins is much less of an ask than Floyd doing the same, since Floyd clearly struggled with movement fighting blown-up welters at 154

    You say that like ODLH has the frame to campaign at MW. Hopkins is massive next to ODLH. Same with Cotto.

    i'm saying that compared to Floyd, Oscar's height and frame is much more conducive to fighting at MW

    Hopkins predicts that El Pollo will hit Golovkin in the testicles, he really indicated that!

    Yep. Over complicates simple things to make himself sound important. I can say what he says in a 1/10 of the time and you would understand it easier too.. Painful con man !

    I didn’t even watch video and can answer OP’s question.

    It’s no, it’s always no to anything BHop says.

    Exactly! Sometimes less is more.
