    Against who? Certainly not the caliber of fighters I have named.


    Hopkins lost his first fight to a no name bum so sure anybody who isn't a bum can beat him what is your point? Allen was never a welterweight and Hopkins beat him 3x none of the fights were close

    No, that wasn't my point at all. My point was that Allen was more competitive than Trinidad. Now if Allen Can be more competitive it would stand to reason with any knowledgeable and objective fan that the fighters I've named stand a better than average chance of being competitive too. Would you care to explain how Allen is a better fighter than any of them even as welterweights?


    It doesn't matter what Griffith's weight was he was fighting middleweights which is what matters. He had time to get used to middleweight power size and physicality and still he got stopped by Monzon(A big, long, strong middle weight like B-Hop) further more proving my point.
    The point is he was competitive with Monzon who in turn is greater than Hopkins.

    And what is the point of giving examples if they aren't applicable to the discussion?

    None of your examples are applicable because your claims like "No welterweight with only 2 middleweight fights could compete with Hopkins". Making such a claim is just plain ignorant unless you plan to back that argument up with EVERY fighter I named. And I already know you can't do that because you don't know anything outside of boxrec. Hell, just yesterday you thought there was only one film of Ezzard Charles. Please!!
