LaMotta did certainly have better defense than Jorge Castro who was a human punching bag yet went the distance with Roy Jones.
Hopkins was never a slugger.He wasn't as crafty as he later became,but he was never a brawler.
Hopkins put on one of his greatest ever performances against Mercado in the rematch.Mercado couldn't touch Hopkins but got touched plenty with right hands.
Everyone knows Castro has a great chin.
