            People need to cool off with hating on Hopkins for beating Oscar and Tito.

            Oscar was blown up, I'll give you that.

            But Trinidad was a wrecking ball just clearing out divisions, and a Champion at 160lbs before he even faced Hopkins.

            He blew William Joppy out of the damn water in what? 6 rounds? And Joppy was a pretty damn good career Middleweight in his own right, and a guy who's never been stopped before, or after, not even by Hopkins himself. Up until the recent TKO loss to Bute at the age of 38.

            If Hopkins win over Trinidad means nothing, then Hagler's win over Hearns means nothing either.

              To me, i feel that he is the best boxer of this past decade. Was P4P for a long time, and dominated MW divsion and had the LHW crown for a couple of years. Beat the youngsters, and was in close fights were many feels that he should have won, TAYLOR x2, calzaghe. To me it was clear he should have won Taylor 1.

              So how do you rate this legendary fighter. He worked all the way to the top from nothing. Kept his body in great condition, and fought whoever challenged.
              Hopkins himself said it was Floyd.

                    The man on your picture got credit for knocking out a LW in Duran.
