    Glen Johnson, Trinidad, and Echols couldn't get Hopkins' respect, and they were all very big punchers.

      tito he knocked out, but tito was never great at 160.
      Trinidad, Glen Johnson, Wright, and Pavlik are elite fighters...and Trinidad was a titleholder at 160...

      Let's not even bring up resumes...Bernard gave RJJ the closest fight in his prime

            johnson is not a big puncher and never has been, trinidad wasnt a big puncher at 160 and echols has never koed anyone worth a damn.

            but you said he koed elite opposition, johnson was not elite at the time and isn't (arguably) now. trinidad was elite, just not at 160.

            i didn't mention resumes, don't change the subject.

                Yes they do...and the fight they had(a past prime Bernard outside of his best weightclass) was close...take that Bernard and give him a prime Bernard's stamina and better workrate...

                    none of those was elite fighters. johnson went on to lose what? 5 out of his last 7 fights after hopkins.
