:: Here we go putting 'Hopkins' up there I bet,... anybody the size of a Light-heavyweight fighting Trinidad and De La Hoya is unbelieveable, it's what has given birth to the 'catchweights' idea with help from stupid 'p4p' lists,.. Hopkins AWESOME resume of undersized fighters is what makes Tarver his best win,.. mind you,.. Dawson's done it twice already.
Hate to say it, but the plaster man himself Margarito has a very good one. He's fought Cotto, Williams, Clottey, Mosley, and Cintron. For a guy who supposedly was the "most avoided fighter", thats not bad.
Agreed . It is amazing when HBO and the media repeat something for years people accept it. Hopkins had some very good wins over welters and junior middleweights. Unfortunately he campaigned at his career no lower than 160 and actually started as a cruiserweight. Hopkins resume is pure shit. It is floyd's for the past 5 years except Hopkins fought smaller, weaker and blown up guys his whole life. Not to mention, Jermain Taylor was obviously the most talented middleweight Slopkins fought in his entire reign at middle. Read that again Taylor was the best actual middleweight Hopkins fought at middleweight and HE LOST TWICE:::: Anyone that includes Hopkins as having a good resume needs to stop claiming they know anything about boxing. Hopkins is a guy who Calazaghe called out fo 10 years and when Hopkins smelly arms were raised in victory overr Morade Hakkar::::He would call out Shane Mosley who started at lightweight and campained no higher than 154.
True Free, very true,... what irks me especially is when glossing over Hopkins resume 'Oscar De La Hoya' is frequently mentioned over all of his unmemorable middleweight defences of which there were a record amount, Oscar was coming off a 10 - 2 decision loss to a protected European fraud. On the decision not going according to schedule that night, Hopkins replied with a smile "I was a little nervous" .
Ricky Hatton's isn't bad: Collazo, Tsyzu, Floyd, Pac, Castillo, Urango. Not sure if he's still 'active', mind, and to be honest he certainly shouldn't be. Otherwise you can pick any of the top welterweights (Mosely, Scumbag, Cotto), Manny Pac, JMM, Hopkins etc etc MTF
