Hopkins has to fight sturm now

[DiegoFuego]

Sturm's claim to fame is beating De La Hoya. Wow, impressive. Call me when he fights a Howard Eastman, Felix Trinidad, Jermain Taylor, William Joppy, or Antwun Echols.

Great call my brother, Sturm is 0-1 vs. top-flight fighters, he won a bogus belt, then sold it to Oscar, and now somehow he's a #1 middleweight??? PLEASE!!! There are at least 8 guys at 160 who have more talent and better credentials that Sturm, that's not to say that Sturm can't be great in the future, he's still young and has some potential, but it'll be 3-4 years until he's truly a top 5 middleweight

[DiegoFuego]

Sturm MAY be top 4 middleweights, but he needs to fight somebody to prove it. Hatton was lucky Tszyu fought him when he didn't deserve it. I mean, we know now that Hatton is truly great, but Tszyu had no reason to fight him. And Hopkins has no reason to fight Sturm.

[STEELHEAD]

why did he get ranked so high? Is it becuase he holds a loss to DLH?

because he has padded stats from fighting second tier fighters in germany.

Sturms biggest win was against a shot, old, blown up welterweight...first time at middleweight and unproven.

[LuKahnLi]

Scuse me, who has Sturm beaten again?

Hopkins doesnt need to fight anyone he can pick who he wants. the belts don't mean a thing to the old man now ask solimon
