You're amazing, dj. I've seen a lot of haters come and go but I've never seen someone so hellbent on being one that they refuse to allow any sort of logic to stop their charge. Carry on.

Yeah because it's not like De La Hoya didn't fight Hopkins at a catchweight and wasn't a P4P great in boxing by then who a lot of people THOUGHT would beat Hopkins because he beat Trinidad.
Also we can not forget how Tito was sucessful at middleweight and fought their afterwards after he got smoked by Hopkins. Yeah lets just take all credit away from B-Hop. Let's list the best fighters at middleweight Hopkins avoided to fight those 2 ATG'S. Let's see.......NOBODY!
Is he still overrated? He just took a young prime fighter to SCHOOL after being down early from knockdowns. Real life rocky movie. What happens when he beats Pascal, beats Dawson, and then goes out on top beating the best super middleweight in the world???

depends who youre talking to. some people overrate him, some people underrate him.
I think his middleweight record is solid...he pretty much beat everyone there, but the division was weak.
What hes doing at such an old age is impressive though. Thats what really makes him a special fighter to me.
It doesnt matter if Trinidad started at WW, he looked like a destroyer at middleweight before Hopkins fought him. that was a lvery good victory, still probably Hopkins' best win.
DLH not so much. he looked like garbage and deserved to lose in his only outing at MW. Who would pass up a fight with DLH though?
too bad hes such a dumbass. there is no denying hes an ATG, even if you can make a few negative accusations about his wins.

Bhop is a tough fight for ANYONE. He will rough you up, take you into deep waters and then drown you. I've only seen 1 fighter completely dominate him, and that's calzaghe. But who didn't calzaghe dominate?
Bhop is an ATG and hes gonna whoop this young canadian

I think he loses to Dawson.
Who is the best super middleweight in the world? Ward, Dirrell or Froch?
