Who wins:2001 Hopkins vs Current GGG?

I think B-Hop would find a way to get the nod after having one of the toughest challenges of his reign.

 

I don't know who'd win but I know asking this question is putting GGG in an ATG status since you'd need to be an ATG to be considered a threat to BHOP in 2001 at 160.

 

Hopkins UD something like 116-112 or 115-113

 

Hopkins by late TKO.

 

It's hard to even make a proper prediction in this one simply because GGG's biggest wins are Rubio and Murray.

 

BHop is ATG based on his resume. It doesn't mean that he was better than Golovkin in the ring.

 

That's actually one fight I give GGG a less than 50% chance in from modern middleweights. I need to see more, but I think Hops has a styles advantage over him as of now.

No chance of a KO though.

 

Those who think that resume defines level are comical.

 

Golovkin knocks him out or makes him turn in a Kovalev performance

 

Prime Roy beats them both. If you consider him modern

 

Hopkins victories at middle do not stand out. GGG has too much activity, power and skills for a lower punch output Hopkins, who, by the way, was not a big puncher to win.

Hopkins could not beat Taylor. Who was Hopkins best win at middle? Maybe Joppy. Please, De La Hoya was a blown up lower weight fighter and so was Tito.

GGG wins here.
