When Hopkins is all done and ready to retire, he'll have amassed a record that will definitely place him among the top 10 ATG. Todate, I would rate him in the Top 15. CAlzaghe? He ain't on any such list.
when all said and done, people will remember - there were 9 occasions when hopkins got into the ring and wasn't good enough to beat his opponent - that hopkins turned down a career high payday to fight calzaghe in america in preference to fighting hakkar for peanuts - that hopkins pretended to be a gangster and then feigned injuries like a complete ***** against robert allan, roy jones, calzaghe and chad dawson - that hopkins never beat an elite fighter at a fair weight in his entire career when people reflect on hopkins career, its important that they see through the smoke and mirrors and read between the lines.
