You could defintley make a credible case for him to be the P4P best however I think that him and Mayweather are tied for the #1 spot.

Mayweather hasn't beaten anybody of note lately to be the top P4P fighter in the world.

His age shouldnt effect his P4P rating, but IMO Hopkins isnt the best fighter because he hasnt fought the other best fighters at his weight or higher.

Hopkins career will go down once Fight Night Rd 2 comes out. Just like Roy Jones Jr.'s did. He was the best "pound 4 pound" fighter out there till then.

after Hopkins beats Eastman he is p4p in my book. Until PBF fights another worthy opponent i think he should be #2.

I say my avatar that Floyd's #1 but I agree with you its really a tie between him and B-hop.

Yes.

The only other guy you can make a case for is Floyd.

Floyd would have already took it from him if his last four fights were against big namers..

What???? Hopkins has cleared out middleweight! He doesn't need to go up in weight. Look what it did to Roy Jones Jr.
