    He is top 50 in the opinion of most. Name 50 fighters better than him let alone 100.

        He was hitting him with low blows from start to end, he basically out fouled him to a ud. He should of got disqualified, that guy is so dirty its unbelievable

          dude....i'm getting there. maybe not hate....but a definite loss of respect. he cheated in almost every way against jones. i saw intentional head butts, low blows, hitting on the break, and not stopping at the bell. everything possible to cheat was done it seems. i dont like dirty fighters like that. roy was spent already, no real need to fight so dirty. I lost alot of respect for hopkins. if he continues to fight, i wont be watching.

            He has never beaten a atg, or a hofer fighting in their prime weight class, so how can he be ranked so high.
            Best wins:
            Tarver
            Tito
            Oscar
            Pavlik
            Winky

            His a top 50 ATG with these wins?
            With the exception of Tarver, all were fighting above their prime weight class
            Hopkins resume=Calzaghes resume

              Hopkins resume equals Calzaghe? Ok, how do you feel about maweathers resume than, Or Pacquiaos who has been fighting past prime, shot, or 1D fighters for the past few years?

                  Not sure what to make of Pacman's resume, too many catchweights and Roach has openly said that the fighters were on the slide during the run up to those fights. But I would place Pac high above Hopkins though. Mayweather has spend the bulk of his career fighting naturally bigger guys he has to be ranked higher than Hopkins as well

                  Mayweather and Pac I would rank somewhere in the 80-100 region, Hopkins 120 right next to Calzaghe

                  EDIT: Pac has 2 wins over Barrera and a win over Jmm, much better than anything Hop has ever done

                    Trinidad > Barerra. Also I am not dissing Pacquiao, dude is my second favorite today, I am showing the ****** ass holes in this guys argument, who will degrade Hopkins for fighting fellow champions who challenge him in his weight class. Also by judging him for what he has done at the age of 45, when most 45 year olds can't even run.

                      Calzaghe win over Lacy=Hopkins win over Tito
                      Calzaghe win over Shieka=Hopkins win over Johnson
                      Calzaghe win over Hopkins=Hopkins win over Tarver
                      Calzaghe win over Brewer=Hopkins win over Oscar

                      Calzaghe win over Kessler=Hopkins win over Pavlik

                      Calzaghe 0 draws
                      Hopkins draw against Mercado

                      Calzaghe 0 losses
                      Hopkins has lost to most of the best fighters he has ever faced:
                      Jones, Taylor I, Taylor II, Calzaghe, Mitchell

                      Calzaghe's resume=Hopkin's resume
