    So now it's only 160? We're just gonna chop a big part of Hopkins' resume off? No, like I said, GGG will not touch Hopkins' resume.

    I remember Hopkins unified 160 by dominating a 160 champ and taking care of a 154 champ who had recently moved up.

    GGG attempted the same and won the first fight in questionable fashion and lost to the 154 champ.

    You said by age 40.

    At age 40 Hopkins just lost twice to Taylor.

    At 37 I'm.sure he still feels like he's the same man he was 5 years ago. Fact is though he isn't. I'm soon to be 40 and consider myself to he in good shape. I'm fitter than most guys 15 years younger and in my own mind I'm still fast and strong but the injuries have started coming regularly. Screwed calf muscle and tendons from running, rotator cuff problems from hitting the pads. Can't beat old father time
    I'm a big GGG fan and thought he achieved something very good last night against a tough younger man. But he isn't the same, he's slower and has lost some of that pop. Like most of them he will go on for just a bit too long

    Do you think GGG has any chance of doing what Hopkins did in his forties?

    Let me explain something, boy with the GGG avatar: I am speculating on what GGG can accomplish. You are trying to erase parts of Hopkins' resume to put GGG in the ballpark. I am not erasing anyone's resume.

    No because we now have PED testing, something Hopkins avoided like the plague

    Not at all, also Hopkins refuses VADA for the Joe Smith fight and with the American “legends” like Holyfield, Jones,Toney etc all being PED cheats I’d bet my last penny on Hopkins being one also.

    I'm very interested to see this. GGG may look the same ten years from now. GGG looks better now than he did ten years ago, in spots

    Just typical ridiculousness and hyperbole from team G.

    Dude has shown significant decline due to age and will be retired in his early 40s at the latest.
