Is Hopkins is the best 160lbs fighter ever ?

I must admit i dont know too much about Monzon except the hype that surrounds him, but i have seen quite a lot of Hagler and i think Hopkins is /was a better fighter than Marvin Hagler.

I think Hopkins would beat Hagler too.

[Silencers]

I don't believe so, I rank Hagler and Monzon in front of him, he's definitely top 10 though.

[chucklesmofo]

I definitely think that hagler is way ahead of hopkins

Do you mean Hagler.

[squealpiggy]

Haha no....

Greb, Monzon, Hagler

i have him and Halger as 3a and 3b... i can't decide who i think is greater

Hopkins 12-0 with 8 KOs against southpaws.

Hagler was not very quick and had his problems with blown up Leonard and Duran and a lot of the fighters he faced were tailor made for him imo.

Hopkins slick,quick,intelligent,counter puncher,great chin,defence.

i would personally favour B-Hop against Halger too, but hypothetical match-ups aren't the only thing to take into consideration... "styles make fights" and all that

Hagler great on the inside.

Hopkins very saavy on the inside and probably physically stronger than Hagler.

better Boxer >Hopkins

better defence>Hopkins

quicker hands,feet >Hopkins

power> Hagler

Stamina> even

Ray Robinson and Ketchel must be up there as well surely
