Bernard Hopkins has never fought a bigger man

[tredh]

Bernard Hopkins has never fought a bigger man than himself. He's mostly gone after smaller men (Trinidad, De La Hoya, Wright) or a few the same size (Tarver).

His recent opponents - Pavlik, Calzaghe, and Wright - were all moving up from smaller weight divisions.

Roy Jones defeated John Ruiz at heavyweight. Why has Hopkins always picked on little guys?

Would say the same for Margarito besides the Williams and Santos fights?

I don't agree with this thread at all.

The giraffe has the exact same number of verterbrae in its neck as a human.... seven!!!

There... we've both said something that is COMPLETELY unrelated to this thread.

you're incompetent

stick to beastiality.

Hopkins is a natural light heavyweight, who walks around at about 190.

His first pro fight, which he lost, was at 175.

So Hatton is bigger than Mayweather I suppose.

There are very few boxers who have fought a lot of bigger opponents. That's why there are weight divisions, to ensure that the guys in the ring are about the same size.

Having said that, I agree that Tarver is a bigger guy than Hopkins.

Chill out little hymen, I was just joking. Nice usage of incompetent though. You're teacher would be proud.

Hopkins is an all time great, period.

It's "your" - thanks though.

Chill out little Naty, I was just joking as well.

And you forgot your capitilization in,

"you're incompetent

but this is a message board, not English Lit. We're all friends here! Go Cardinals!

why are you trying to discredit a black fighter?

why the hate on a black fighter?

HAHA... I knew it was coming, when I saw that you were on and posting on some of the threads... I was wondering how long it would take!
