     Every fight they say he has no power? He is the only guy to knock out Dela Hoya & Trinidad . 32 ko's yeah thats no power. They say he is a boring fighter, but then again those who say this do not know any science of the sport and they only seen the Eastman fight lol. This guy is the ultimate learn how to box video. O shit forgot,  he is the only guy to KO Johnson also. I have not missed one of his fights since 1993. Wins over Jones, De la hoya, Trinidad, Pavlik, Tarver ,Wright, Johnson, Calzaghe was on cocaine and one judge gave Hopkins the fight!.The Taylor fight one judge gave Hopkins too. Fighters who were never the same after a Hopkins fight: Joppy,Echols Allen, Holmes Trinidad,Tarver ,Pavlik, Wright. Ali did bigger things outside the ring, Hopkins has did better things inside the ring.This guy has Two hearts. Best fighter ever. Thx for the profits and the insperation to be determined in moving forward.

Roy Jones >>>> Bernard Hopkins

I'll takes Roy's victory against a young Hopkins over Bernard's "revenge" against a faded Jones. I'll also take Roy's career accomplishments over Hopkin's. Among current fighters, I have Manny pounding Bernard (in career achievement).

Stopping DLH and FT very late in their respective careers is not the same as doing it in their primes. He has had a great career, but isn't a top 10/20 all timer imo.

Stopping Felix Trinidad late in his career? WTF are you talking about ? 

Felix was 28, undefeated and one the top P4P fighters in the world when Hopkins fought him .If Trinidad wasnt in his prime when Hopkins fought him when was he?

Jones and M.Pacman have the gift off speed. When that speed runs out, if you don't have technique then you are finished! Thats what happend to Jones and may happen the Pacman. Hopkins has lost speed but it is his technique  that keeps carring him on.

Sorry Tml: No way Felix was anywhere near his career best weight at middle. That is two divisions above where he had most success.

Holly: Don't remotely agree that Jones and/or Pac having been stopped relegates them to a lower spot than Hopkins. What type of rationale is that? If you use that logic, then Rocky M is clearly the best fighter ever. Hopkins lost twice to a fairly mediocre fighter (historically) and most of the fighters against whom he defended his title were ordinary.Pacman is clearly historically superior to Hop and I'll stand by Roy as well. Hopkins gained little redemption with
his win over a well past his prime RJ.

Have you been hit in the back of the head.Lets say Hopkins did fight ordinary fights to defend his title. But was he ever KO'D by them. Pacman was KO';d by Rustico Torrecampo and Medgoen Singsurant?  :LOLOLOLOL do you or TYSON or ALI know these fighters?. Come on dude, Pacman is special but not almost 20years special .Hopkins is a Longevity MONSTER! Pacman beat Moreales , Barrera and De la Hoya all when they were fading fast! I give up!
