    Well, the "regular" is the regular championship belt they've been fighting for four many many decades.

    Why are some fans trying to claim their OWN rules to a sport they have trouble understandings the rules as they've always been.

    Not only are our trolls trying to change the history of the sport with lying about what they think or wish they were seeing in the ring their now making their own rules..

    WTF is going on here

    How is he CLEARLY the greatest MW of all time?

    It's a fact because you believe it 100%?

    Ha!

    Bhop does whatever he wants vs either guy in a 12-15 round fight. Way to well rounded and technical for the one tricked pony’s.

    The premise here assumes that Hopkins was previously the GOAT at middleweight, and he wasn't. Neither he nor GGG comes anywhere close to SRR, Hagler, or Monzón. They are both among the "best of the rest", both runners-up, nearer that pantheon than any other 160lb mortals, but there is very clear delineation between the gods and the demigods.

    For what it's worth, I have Hopkins at #5 behind Hagler, Monzon, SRR, and Greb.

    GGG could wind up being top 10 when all is said and done, and perhaps even higher. You could even make the case that he's top 10 now. But his career is not yet finished, so it's difficult to gauge where he will wind up until we see how the rest of his career pans out.

    o_O First time I ever heard Hagler described as a "one trick pony". Golovkin likewise can do a bit of everything. I seriously doubt that you'll get more than 5% of posters agreeing with your statement. Let's leave it at that.
