    will the young B-Hop (roy fight) beat the older more experience B-Hop?
    I was just thinking about that... Obviously the older fighter beats the B-Hop that fought RJJ... that B-Hop wasn't that good.

    But I was curious which of these Hopkins were the best:

    Hopkins vs. Trinidad
    Hopkins vs. Tarver
    Hopkins vs. Pavlik

      How old is B-Hop?

      Either way, we must also remember that the version of Roy that Hopkins faced wasn't at his peak either and beat Hopkins with one injured hand.

      Roy in his prime would have always been to much for Hopkins to beat...which is why we never saw the rematch; Hopkins was never serious about it and only wanted to use Roy's name to promote his own fights.

          thanks guys, I also think the older b-hop would beat the b-hop that fought jones...

          I also think the best B-Hop is against trinidad, imho both physically and mentally were closer to their peak...
