    For most of his career he was a natural middleweight.

    I can agree on that.

    BUT i dont think Tito would hurt hop with that patented lefthook. Yeah he can make 160 comfortably but look at him is his early fights. he's a ****in LightHeavy.

    I dont blame him for fighting @160 you dont blame a fighter if he can compfortably make a certain division and that's good for him as a fighter same with Marg.


    But i really think Glen Johnson was his best win because of what Glen has accomplished and they are the same size.

        Hopkins is a big middleweight no doubt. I feel that if a fighter can make a weight division comfortably then he is natural at that weight.

        I don't think Tito could of hurt Hopkins either, his defense was too good and Hopkins chin is very good anyway.

        Johnson hasn't accomplished much but is a good fighter and a good win on Hopkins resume.

            Sometimes in a fighters career he doesnt really bother dehydrating or dieting that much to be a certain weight, just training and weighing what he wants, usually for early fights, or sometimes for a tune up if you are an already established fighter, like rarfa marquez fighting at 126 the other week
