    Same as you but I'd add SRR 9better at 147 but still an ATG at 160.
    If Oscar can move up and be competitive, SRR would do much better

    So BHop is 4 or 5 alltime.

    A young Hopkins IMO was too inexperienced for Hagler and an older wiser Hopkins wouldnt have the stamina to keep Hagler off him.

    Only Haggler would have.

    The other three?

    Too small for big Bernard.

    He beat Hopkins twice (should have been once), but put him in against a younger B-Hop and he gets stopped.

    Ray Leonard wouldn't have beaten Hopkins easy...Hopkins should be the favorite there.

    Nobody beats Hopkins easy

    And yet, this all somehow goes back to his association to GBP for you doesnt it? Hard to take you serious when you hate fighters for their associations to Oscar (just like you dont like Barrera).

    Right and I would assume the fans of most boxers are male Jack.

    RJJ was bigger faster stronger and more skilled than SRL. So comparisons don't hold there.

    SRL had trouble with Marvin ( Personally I scored it for Marvin, but I can live with the close decision)

    Hearns did not carry his power up the weight scale. Haggler demo'd him.

    Too small for big BHop.

    And Duran, a natural lightweight taking on a natural light heavy?

    Duran is my second favourite fighter of alltime (after Ali), and he did pull agreat win off over Barkley, but we're talking prime for prime here and Roberto is just not big enough. His prime was 135-147.

    SRR, Hearn and Duran would dominate the 135-154 range if they were at prime and fighting today. Floyd, Oscar and Shane being the ONLY ones of the current bunch who could make things at least interesting with any one of them.
