      Tito is a smaller guy. Hopkins knew this.

      Tyson and Douglas were in the same weight class.

              Not necessarily, JC is a 196 pounder who starved himself to make SMW. What's Hopkins' usual weight between fights?

                well trinidad weighs like 250 pounds between fights? so that makes his win that much more impressive? i don't know i'm trying to grasp for straws like you.

                  I'm not grasping for straws, bro, nor am I the only one with an opinion about Hopkins fighting guys outside of their ideal weight class. Trinidad is no good when fighting above a certain weight limit, as he's proven.

                    b-hop was no more than 163 in btw fights and he was willing to go down 154 to make big fights back then. i think he might be a little over 175 now.
                    he is one that stay close to his fight weight... thats why i said he couldn't make weight no more in the jt fights cause he came at 168 the highest he ever did
