or did jermain taylor expose him to be an average joe and it wont affect his legacy
hopkins legacy is pretty secure.
if he wants to add to his legacy, a victory over adamek at cruiser or a title at HW would do it, but not going down in weight.

I must be tired. For a second there I thought you were implying that Taylor exposed Hopkins as an average Joe.
No it wont, it will just reiterate his defensive liabilities, getting the super middle title is what enhances his legacy though.
:thinking:
I'd say winning a 5th major title in a third (second really, since all Tarver had was the IBO) weight class of course enhances his legacy. How much depends on what Froch does for the rest of his career.
maybe if he fought him in england
i mean hopkins had never left his home country
and they say chris john is protected at least he has fought out of his home country
Yes he has...... Bernard fought Sergio Mercado in Ecuador.

i don't think so. unless Bhop will come back and fight wth hiw, then he can show what he's got..
hell yeah its another strap in another weight class. Why not it should be exciting.
Adamek really screwed the pooch on this one. If he would have fought and beaten Bernard he would be earning million dollar paydays
think of legacy as an experience bar in pokemon games
every win and even every draw and loss adds to legacy, just in varying amounts
i believe Froch's scalp would be a nice little boost, but it's not gonna make him grow a level
