    yes, Nard was the number 1 middle back then, and Roy was the number 2
    This mother****er just don't get it man, seriously. What a ****ing nitwit. He would argue what cheese smelled better at a deli, with a ****in mouse. LOL.

          he was

          Bernard was the Best MW out there, being that he didnt lose for the next 10 years
          He hadnt already done it by the time Roy fought him. Your qualifying his credentials by something he achieved years later. Yes that makes Roys win more impressive but it DOES NOT mean that Hopkins was the best middleweight in the world when Roy fought him.

          Laughable. He hadnt even had a championship fight yet hes better than the current champs? Come on, have some common sense.

            Why are you getting so emotional? You really are the definition of a fanboy. You basically break down when anyone criticises Jones.

            The best Middleweight is Pavlik, whats to research???

                Before the Fight Lampley Mercahnt etc said its the number 1 middleweight in the world vs the number 2 middleweight in the world (hopkins and jones)

                  My logic would dictate that one of the current champions was the best Middleweight in the world at that time.

                  Your logic dictates that a guy with no championship fights who'd been fighting bums was the best.

                  Which sounds more like common sense?

                    One more time...........with the IBF or overall?

                    When I start falling at the alter of what Lampley says, I'll let you know.
