    Lets face it Hopkins has only really beaten average fighters at middleweight,a couple of good small guys and a lazy bigger guy(Tarver). Who are the best 2 opponents he ever faced? That`s right Jones and Calzaghe and he was easily beaten by both. :deal

    His best win was against Calzaghe.

    Pugilist is the biggest ****rag on this forum.

    Don't feed the troll.


    He will never give up because he KNOWS Hopkins will always be ranked higher than the shabby-resumed One from Wales in any serious all-time pound-for-pound list. Loser.

    Why do we have to do this?

    Yes he's a great. We don't have to say because Calzaghe did this or that, that Hopkins can't be. There can be more than one great. The only debate is where to rank him.

    if hopkins is nothing then what does that say for calzaghe whose signature win on his resume is the "win" (albeit a dubious one to say the least) against hopkins.

    Watching the Pavlik fight i think it is pretty obvious that he is an ATG.
