Julio Cesar Chavez Or Hopkins? Who's Greater?

So you give Bhop props for beating Tito, who's best weight was a division or two lower and Tito was the favorite. Buuuuuut yet you don't even give DLH credit for being the underdog against Chavez. Gotta love boxing fans lol.

DLH was not the underdog against Chavez. He was a solid betting favorite over Chavez.

Not as big as a favorite as Tito over Hopkins, but the favorite nonetheless.

trinidad was not a ww that moved up???? reread my post. old mans best wins were against smaller guys coming up in weight. tarver was a one hit wonder. who has he beat since? nobody. one hit wonder. dawson ate him up, not even close.

He beat Harding who was still a solid opponent at 175, he also beat Johnson at 175, Woods was still ok at the time... Not just a one hit wonder man

DLH was the underdog in their first fight. There is a couple of articles stating that. Even saw one on here in BoxingScene a couple of months ago.

DLH was the favorite. My dad put money on him, and apparently he didn't get very good odds from the bookie because I remember him saying the odds were 3 to 1, and here I see in Vegas they were only 2 to 1.

To add, that was a cool experience seeing it in the Closed Circuit. The audience (mostly Mexican) was all rooting for Chavez.
