    Bhop twice lineal idc what ANYONR says about the fight being atv170 Hopkins would have destroyed pavlik at 160 or 120 or 500.

    Marvelous is great but his loss to an old, half blind welterweight pulls him down under b-hop IMO

    B-Hops may not be top 2, but he has a strong case for top 5.

    1. Hagler
    2. Greb
    3. Monzon
    4. SRR
    5. Hopkins
    6. Charles Burley
    7. Stan Ketchel
    8. **** Tiger
    9. Mickey Walker
    10. Jake LaMotta
    11. Bob Fitzsimmons
    12. Tiger Flowers
    13. Holman Williams
    14. Emile Griffith
    15. Marcel Cerdan

    You can make a case for Golovkin somewhere between 16-20, but I think between 21-25 is more accurate at this time. But alas, Golovkin's career is not yet over, so he has time to improve.

    Hagler knows how it feels to be avoided. He is right, and it is even more of a farce than it was in his day, with the MW champions like Cotto, Canelo, etc who won't even fight at MW.

    Marvin has huge respect, and sympathy, for Gennady

    For all the G hater trolls on here this must sting like a bullet ant glove

    Hagler was the man at MW.

    I love GGG to bits. Do I think if he'd had a fab 4 type of thing around today he'd have been able to make him self in the top at MW? Possibly, I really think he's that good. But he hasn't had that unfortunately so I wouldn't disrespect any of the cemented greats by suggesting it
