    Its ok, I'm not condemning Bernard, he made the weight, I'm just pointing out the blatant hypocrisy.

      Theres 4 fights to Hopkins 6.

      Martinez, Danny Perez, 6 Head, Maurice Brantley(154), Kyvelos(or however you spell his name).

      What haters fail to realize too is that Margarito started AT 135. That's not a Middleweight to me.

        No hypocrispy man, its just that in most of Margarito's fights the difference in the size of the two men is too noticeable, not so in Hopkin's fights.

            Just because its not as noticable as you say, doesn't mean the size difference isn't there.

            Hopkins like Margarito has size advantages over his opponents.

            Thats a fact and you can't change it just because hes your favorite fighter.

              Is the size difference this big? Don't put B-Hop and Margarito in the same boat

                You said "He knew not to impose his size, cuz no one would go toe to toe with Tito"

                So IF and IF Cotto were to ever beat Floyd. Would it be fair for me to say "Cotto beat a smaller Floyd. Who moved up from 130" Would it?
                B Hop was taller, had more reach, and was a full MW, he was overall bigger. PBf is taller and have more reach, Cotto just cant push his body to a lower weight. In overall PBF is bigger than Cotto , but Cotto weights a bit more!!!!!!!!1

                  Pretty young. So I take it all those years Bhop fought at 160 was him being in a light heavyweight body?? The hypocrisy of Marg haters is hilarious.


                  Also when he fought Santos at 154, Santos came in at 10 pounds heavier than Margarito. So how can Margarito be a Middleweight??

                    Lets see, Bernard Hopkins fought opponents as small as 5'7". Lupe Aquino.

                    I'd say its been bigger.

                    You're right, I shouldn't put them in the same boat.

                    Hopkins has fought guys the same size as Cotto.

                    What a shame.

                      Was this picture from an actual fight? Looks like a father beating his son, that big a size difference.
