RJJ on his best night

 

Yeah Im guessing anywhere from 93-98 Roy could of beat Hopkins now.

 

From 160 to 175 all time against Hopkins on his best night ever? Or currently on his best night NOW and only current fighters?

Maybe Jones. Maybe Hagler. I dont think the 160 lb version of Leonard would do to well. The Hopkins that beat Tito would stalk Sugar Ray down IMO but for some reason i think the fat MW version of Duran gives Hopkins fits.

 

I agree that it would be tough for anyone to beat Hopkins on his BEST night. RJJ at his best and MH at his best would be the closest, I would think. SRR's prime was WW, so there may be a size discrepancy there.

 

Roy Jones DID beat Hopkins on one of his best nights, IMO. And he did it with an injured hand, as well.. Jones spanks any version of Hopkins, and he does so at any weight.

Jones most likely does beat Hopkins on any night. So do a few others if we are talking about any weight Hopkins has competed at.

LHW, Jones, Spinks, and Foster could all beat Hopkins.

 

I would favor Marvin Hagler, Carlos Monzon, and Roy Jones Jr over Hopkins on his best night. But Hopkins has what it takes to beat all 3 of them at middleweight. You have to give Robinson, Hearns, Leonard, Burley, Toney, Nunn, and McCallum a chance, but I would pick Hopkins at his best to beat all of them.

If we are adding in light heavyweight, I would have to pick Moore, Foster, Spinks, Charles, Langford, Tunney, Conn, Jones, Rosenbloom, Loughran, and others over him just because he hasn't proven enough at 175. To be honest, I'm not even sure if the Hopkins of the Tarver fight could beat Chad Dawson.
