    That's because he cleaned out the division so thoroughly.

    Think about it, he defeated the five champions before him, and a champion after him. No champ has even come close to that.

    I'll put it like this! If I guy can hold onto his titles for nearly 3 years and only defend it 3 times against C and D level fighters without anyone complaining he's got to be great!!:-:)roll::-(

    Atleast in Bhops case he still fought and beat A level fighters in his career!!

    I think it's very overrated. he fought the Robert Allen 3 times for crying out loud. I rate hopkins more highly for what he did after leaving middleweight than for the title run.
