    He's already surpassed Jones in the legacy department.

    Why dose'nt he face Chad Dawson who beat Adamek..? Why..?

    Adamek has been beaten by a better fighter in Chad Dawson. I don't think he will ever surpass Roy Jones Junior, unless he faces and beats Chad Dawson, and then wins a Heavyweight Title.

    Seriously, for ****s sake. Roy Jones beat John Ruiz..!

    Many people believe Roy Jones was roided up against Ruiz.

    Word~

    But regardless I think Hopkins beating Tarver puts him right there with Jones, and he didnt just beat Tarver he owned Tarver, his bounce back win over Pavlik and a win over Winky I think Hopkins is on his way to surpass jones but I dont think it would be in beating Adamek~ I think a win over Dawson would secure that.

    It'll just be one more thing to add to BHop's resume if he wins. THe RJJ-BHop debate will go on regardless. RJJ's win over BHop is still pretty big.

    But if Hopkins loses ... it will hurt his legacy.

    Hopkins beating ADamek would be a bigger accomplishment than Roy beating Ruiz IMO

    The question I want to ask is why doesn't Chad Dawson face Glen Johnson? I believe Johnson clearly won that fight.

    re legacy I think the Pavlik win was better than the Ruiz win as Pavlik was the true MW champ. h2h RJJ all day, legacy Bhop > RJJ

    I think his resume all ready looks better then Roy's. I wish Roy would of beat Joe C so we could of had a rematch between the B Hop and Jones. Would have been great ****.
