    Biased towards Hearns obviously.

    Right about the Mongoose.

    Just noticed I didnt put Marciano in there at all....

    Maybe rightfully so.

      What is wrong with his resume?

        A close fight with SRL has to count for something. Those are 3 top 40 guys of all time and it only further enhances the resume. BHOP could be better, but the era he ran wasn't the greatest(what divison truly is great right now compared to back to the day), so you can only judge him off those guys.

          Nothing wrong with it, it just isn't that great. Personally rate him as the third best middleweight after Hagler and Hopkins. I also feel he loses to either head to head.

            winky didnt arguably win that fight lol and pavlik barely makes weight and is huge for a mw and was a favorite to win

              Wins over Emille Griffith(ATG), Jose Napoles(ATG), Nino Benvanuti(HOF), Bennie Briscoe(One of Phillys Greatest), Valdez(Top Contender and devastating puncher)

              7 year reign, 14 title defences and retired champion. Monzon is a lock top 20

                Ive been critical of Hops as of late. But he waxes top fighters and makes it look easy.

                  If we are talking about overrated, lets not forget Jack Johnson. He is not a top 10 fighter of all time.

                    I disagree think his MW resume is better than both of them especially Hopkins. I would say B-Hop never beat a guy at MW as good as Jose Napoles or Emile Griffith. That is just my opinion. But, anyways you dont rank Greb or SRR in the top 3?
