    1 RJJ
    2 Floyd

    3 - 100 Doesn't matter, since they can't match these guys
    .....Wrong!!

      Never seen him, was born in 89 and started watching boxing after the Tito/ DLH hype hit me. That fight was so dull it threw me off, didn't watch boxing for a while then came back, can't remember when. I do know that I became in love with the sport after Tito vs B-Hop. Freaking DLH vs Tito fight ruined it for me, could have seen so much more. I'll see what I could find on youtube.

          Yeah I'm watching his fight against Moises, so far I don't see that sort of speed, still watching.

                Lol, I think you could blame that one on Lou Duva. Hopson fought more like Zab than he did Pea.

                  You know the score Apples. A nuthugger just cannot be objective.

                    Damn, he was K.O'd twice. Looking at Boxrec, after his K.O to Santos Lopez, he won 3 in a row then disappeared.

                      He was a decent fighter, but like I said, he just couldn't get over that hump. I don't know if it was mental or what? Wish there was more stuff of him on youtube, he was fun to watch back in the day.
