At age 47, Bernard Hopkins fought above his natural weight and won a world title from someone who’s still ranked at 175… what’s Floyd’s excuse again?

    TBH i can care less, never like Floyd as a personality, but who am i to judge a man on easy money. Its clear that he didn't take it serious either since he was brawling and not fighting he would if it was a legit fight.

      Borenard Hopkins was always a natural 175 guy

      He only fought 160 because he was so weak and untalented he needed to fight smaller guys

        He made 160 easily, so I guess he was naturally a middleweight.

          He made his debut at 175

          A lot of his early fights was 168

          He ****** so he moved down

          Also why he fights the way he did, throw a punch and grab

          Lack of talent

              It impacts his legacy.

              It needs to be discussed and not ignored.


              No it doesn't. Not everyone is Archie Moore or Benard Hopkins. He made millions and retired at the right time. By the way, I am not at fan of his.
