    Hopkins fans were making the same excuses for him at that time as well so you aren't really making a point here.

    Fake? You mean like Hopkins "flopping" out of the ring against Robert Allen? Or Hopkins laying on the ground trying to get Roy Jones DQed? Or Hopkins claiming Joe Smith pushed him out of the ring?

    Which clearly says "Partial" record.

    Talk about moving the goalposts. Acknowledge you were mistaken and thank me for pointing you to accurate information, like a mature person.

    I don't even like Hopkins, probably hate him the most out of any boxer in existence, but stop with these idiotic comparisons.

    350 fights against world-class boxers? :loel:

    Just stop it man, 85% of those fights happened in his teens against other teens and other amateurs who choose boxing part time or to learn self defense.

    In all fairness Hopkins has a completely different style to ggg, one that would be kinder on an ageing fighter

    The same site lists Hopkins amateur record as ... non-existent.

    That isn't accurate, either.

    TBF you was just banging on about Hopkins "street" fights.

    Oh it was even worse than i remember, losing 8 out of 51 wins. Not the 5 out of 350 like you claimed.

    So either you lied about his record or you stumbled upon this partial amateur after i pointed out you were mistaken. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt in saying it was the latter. If so, thank me for bringing this to your attention.

    Cheers

    Prison?

    FFS I don't know and tbh nor do I care, but I'd take amateur fights over street fights any day of the week.
