    Hopkins is overrated

    Hopkins is way overrated. He has yet to beat an elite boxer. How is he rated in the top 2 or 3 p4p? What has he done? I mean if he is so good, why hasn't he fought a great fighter. Tarver is the best he's fought and Tarver is barely an above average boxer. I'm not saying that Hopkins is bad, but one of the best p4p? I don't think he belongs in the top 10 even. If he gets into the ring with Calzaghe, Kessler, Eubanks, or Benn and beats either one of them, than he belongs, otherwise, he is way too overrated.

    He certainly is Overrated.
    There is no argument against that.
    People will reply with the same old ****....
    "He beat Tito & Oscar....."
    You know those 2 guys who made history at middleweight?
    The fact he lost to the best he faced escapes the delusional as well.
    BUT what you have to remember is he is american and has "Mad Skillz".

      I love Hopkins, I think he's great. He and Roy Jones should fight again.

        I too believe he's over rated to be honest. But on paper the guy does look pretty good. I'd never buy a Hopkins PPV because I find his style a touch dull.

          Correct he lost to Jermain twice and won against Tarver and Winky (who clearly too small on the fighting weight)

          Bhop should belong to top 5 and not higher than Joe C.

            He shouldn't even be top 15 P4P, he's overrated big time.

                  Hey Dave, I've got an idea!

                  Why don't you degrade the name of Bernard Hopkins so it once again looks like Joe Calzaghe hasn't beaten anyone!
