There's no one great at 160 for GGG to beat, but Hopkins didn't beat anyone either

    You didn't even watch the fight. Log off and never post again. BTW Hopkins wins over Tito and Oscar at MW still **** on anything GGG has ever done.

    Hell not to mention his win over Winky to. Hopkins dared to be great GGG hasn't.

    Agreed. :good

    I just find it funny that the name at the top of his list was Glen Johnson for Hops' middleweight run. He calls Ishida a tomato can, yet Glen didn't have a single win at middleweight that was as good as Ishida KO'ing Kirkland.

    Can I also add that ALL of those wins he listed came AFTER hopkins was 34. So Hopkins was a bum until he was like 35 or 36 then I guess by Nay sayer logic.

    Are you high? What about him fighting Calzaghe and Pascal taking on Dawson 2x and facing Kovalev? His wins over Tarver, Tito, Oscar, Pascal, Winky and Pavlik are in another Galaxy when compared to GGG's that's for damn sure.

    He's a future ATG middle and top 3 H2H at 160 IMO. The only guys I would favor over golovkin at 160 is hagler and Gmann.

    Never said Hopkins wasn't great he is but you claimed he was daring to be great by fighting Winky, if anything it was Winky who was as you like to say with you're new phrase of the moment daring to be great.

    Of course Hopkins resume is better, but nobody ducked Hopkins like they ducked golovkin. If golovkin had fought Martinez, quillin, cotto, canelo, Saunders, Jacobs, sturm, lee(all of those guys turned down fights with him), his resume at 160 would be better than Hopkins.
