      People criticize Bernard for fighting "smaller men" yet he beat everyone at his own weightclass...

      The big boys move up and offer him big bucks, he's supposed to say no?

            "There's only three sugars that i know of, in boxing history and none of them have disrespected the sugar" hahahah i love it. Hopkins is always a great interview...but I agree that Mayweather vs Sugar Shane should happen at some point.

              The mw division wasn't exactly his weight class, how many fights did he have before he became a mw? One as a lhw and about 19 as a smw.

                  He fought nobodies before he went to 160...

                  If he can make middleweight he's a middleweight...

                  He fought there for over 10 years IT IS HIS WEIGHTCLASS

                    Marvin Hagler's wins over smaller guys, added to his legacy because those guys went on to prove they could compete, in the middleweight division. Also come fight night Hagler would be around 160, how much would Hopkins weigh in 170?

                      And what exactly did Leonard do at 160?

                      Hearns didn't do much at 160 either...
