    Hopkins list of accomplishments

    Glen Johnson 32-0
    Antwun Echols 22-2-1 (2)
    Felix Trinidad 40-0
    William Joppy 34-2-1
    Oscar De La Hoya 37-3-0
    Howard Eastman 40-1-0
    Antonio Tarver 24-3-0
    Ronald Wright 51-3-1

    Calzaghe
    Defeated

    Jeff Lacy 21-0-0
    Sakio Bika 20-1-2

    I see a lot of world champions on Hopkins list.
    Definitely sounds like the more impressive resume if you ask me.

    You have to take into account the fact that De La Hoya, Trinidad, and Wright had no business at the weight the fights were at. Those wins look much better on paper than they actually are.

    Also i think Veit, Reid, Woodhall, and Sheika are far more worthy of a mention than Manfredo.

      Considering Oscar, Tito and wright had no reason being in the ring with Hopkins plus the fact he lost to Jermain taylor. I think calzaghes is better.

      Veit, Reid, Woodhall, Sheika were all at one point world-champions yet you mention Manfredo?

        Who cares about resumes, it's about two fighters at the end of the day.

        However good Hopkins resume is, he's never fought someone like Calzaghe before and vice-versa.

            I don't know.
            Veit, Reid, Woodhall and Sheika are boxers I haven't even heard of.
            Your comparing these fighters to HOF fighters On hopkins resume.

                Then you arn't a very big boxing fan.

                And Manfredo deserves a mention instead of these former world champions, which most lost on a crappy decision loos to Otkke.
