Bernard Hopkins: "Mayweather, The Best of My Era"

If B-Hop and SRL say it then it has to be true!!

Why is B-Hop acting like he and FMJ are from the same era? LOL. B-Hop, RJJ, DLH, Tito, Toney, Lennox Lewis,Shane, Vernon Forrest, and Winky Wright are in the same era, I'm pretty sure Floyd is in their underclassman, so to speak.

floyd is the best fighter of his era, bar none. he was more dominant than any other fighter and going to win 6 titles in 5 weight classes without of loss only enhances this. skillwise, roy jones ain't got **** on him, because it's obvious that floyd's skills are way more polished than roy, and this is why he hasn't lost yet. ray leonard and hopkins are right, floyd is the best, hands down. he's proved it, and besides a young toney and hopkins, floyd's resume is better than jones, he has more legends on his resume and soon to be legends on his resume than roy does, and floyd is more gifted than roy, don't give me any bull**** with this either, floyd is sharper in everything except power than roy was and is. numbers don't lie, floyd is the truth.

That's why I call you a stand, dog. To say Jones ain't got **** on Mayweather is crazy. Yeah, I know he didn't have a perfect record but Jones ran up his resume to 49 wins with one disqualification before falling off at age 35. You already hear Floyd Sr saying he wants Floyd to retire after one or two more fights. It's not easy, man. Jones was pretty much undefeated in the first 50 fights of a career where he won titles at 160, 168, 175 and heavy. Was the heavyweight a paper title? No more than Gatti's. And his list of opponents beaten are outstanding.

Skill-wise, Floyd is no doubt the better technical fighter - perhaps of all time. No joke. Both were insanely gifted. But that is a secondary aspect of ranking a fighter. Your skills will either lead to wins or it won't--ultimately, that's how we judge a man. Right now I have Roy up by a tad but a win over Pacquiao or Martinez seals the deal for Floyd.

Interesting.

Roy or Floyd.....its been the era of the "Juniors"....now, I hope that makes the kids happy!!....if I had to vote, I would disagree with my dude B.Hop and say Roy was the man of their era
