    Yes......so Roy beat a contender. He didnt beat the best middleweight in the world He was simply not the best MW at the time Roy beat him. Its total ignorance. If he'd rematched Hopkins years later, you'd have a point.
    they were both equally green... bernard took the ibf title 4-5 fights later and kept it for 10 years... and ONLY because roy vacated to fight toney

    so he was the best mw 4-5 fights later, but not at the time?

    he only lost because he was fighting roy

        Get ready for the toolbox response 101: "But Roy had an amateur career"

        He's painfully predictable.

            Both equally green? You havin a laugh? How you figure that?

            Im sorry, I didnt realise the IBF Strap was the only belt available. Didnt realise it was the holy grail and winning it automatically makes you the best.

                  professionaly they had a 1-2 fight difference... well considering he never lost at MW once having the belt, and continued to collect the rest becoming the undisputed MW

                  HE WAS OBVIOUSLY NOT GARY LOCKETT, and WAS the best MW

                    It is more the fact that the man then went undefeated for over a decade in that division after that fight. It's not like he went from a green ****** to the best MW of the last 20 years in 1 or 2 fights.
