[Jambo boy]

[GodOfWar]

I'm going with Hopkins in this one because I think his resume has better opponents then Roys.

yep....it was a weird situation though, as he really wasnt the linear champ...

b-hop's ring lhw title comes from the jones line, so if the thread starter is not counting jones' ring lhw title, he shouldnt count bernards.....

Roy beat Bernard decidedly when they were both prime

Neither were in their prime yet, especially w/ how B-Hop evolved as a fighter. RJJ was near his prime in the fight, but B-Hop was in his prime a few years down the line when his mind continued to develop boxing strategies and evaluate opponents.
