Ok, who´s greater: Hopkins or Erik Morales?

****ing lame question^^atsch Barrera by miles.

For thread question-- Both are easily all time greats but id rank B-Hop higher id say hes definitely top 25,maybe top 20.... Morales is around top 60.

 

Morales. B Hop is good though

 

DAMN dude, you took my thunder, great post......I like Erik Morales more, but BHOP is probably about 40 spots higher in the ALL TIME rankings...

Just imagine what BHOP would do to a CRUDE come forward fighter like Maidana.....Oh wait, he just did, lol...

 

I would rather see a 118 version of Hopkins vs 188 Erik.


I know Grampa Hops racking up belts at 46, but I still go for Morales.

 

Erik Morales has beaten WAY more tough opposition for his size his body of work only literally a couple people have a better resume in the last 20 years.. YES 20

Juan Carlos Ramirez..TKO12
Fernando Velardez..TKO5
Jose Luis Bueno..KO2
Kevin Kelly..TKO7
Guty EspadasX.. KO3
Wayne McCullough..UD12
Carlos Hernandez..UD2
In Jin Chi..UD12
Junior Jones..TKO4
Jesus Chavez..UD12
Daniel Zaragoza..KO11[39yrs]
Paulie Ayala..KO11
Marco Barrera..SD12
Manny Pacquiao..12 round ass kicking
David Diaz???[gift decision]
Marcos Maidana ??


he should be was it a 5 weight class Champion??

Ive said it before and i'll say it again:

Erik Morales is the most underated fighter in the last 30 yrs

I agree he is underrated eventhough everyone loves him, I thought he beat diaz but lost to maidana with 1 point so thats very evry close. he should atleast be a 4 time champ, i rank hopkins higher though, b-hop is special as well.

 

:nod

 

I have BHOP higher on my list right now but I can see it the other way. Morales' resume of wins is better than Hopkins', I'd say. but it's a judgment call. It's within reason to argue either.

 

Morales wins over a prime Barrera and Pacman are greater then any off Hopkins.:deal

 

Great post.

 

Morales, without a doubt.

 

Hopkins. Not close.

 

Hopkins.

 

Hopkins is probably shrewder and more technically skilled so can nullify opponents and not take as much punishment, but there's just something cool about a guy who looks like Morales looks walking into a bar and being the baddest man there, probably capable of beating anyone there to death brutally with his hands regardless of their size (as long as Jones/Hopkins/Floyd etc are not there)
