I just don't see HOPKINS as an A.T.G.

    What about his style do you think is ineffective?

If you seen his fights when he was younger he'd do **** like hit fighters on the back of the head and he still used that headbutting ****.
      This is exactly what I'm talking about... I can't respect a mother****er who just does dirty **** all the time...

        Dirty tactics are a part of boxing!

        Theres a difference between blatant fowls and roughing up an opponent to throw them off their game.

            Part of the ****ing game? When has Martinez headbutted the **** out of an opponent or purposely hit fighters on the back of the head like this?



            Hopkins holding calzaghes head down, then Calzaghe throws a slap that Hopkins overacts to. Lampley, Steward were all making front of of Hopkins. They also made front of Hopkins for his dirty tactics against Wright.

                He's great but I don't consider him ATG. He beat up on a bunch of small guys and his mw reign was in a pretty weak era. Hop pisses me off and I hate his attitude. He has always been an *******.

Truthfully, hopkins hasnt done **** since he KOed Trinidad. This chump even screamed the silent black man rule (never let a whiteboy beat me) and LOST!!! WTF?!?!?!? Hopkins sucks to me... I'm sorry but he does. He throws 250 punches per fight and he's a serious clown. You should see him driving De La Hoyas old bentley around Delaware smh. Dude isn't that good. He loss to Jermain "Nap Nap" Taylor, should of lost to Winky, Calzaghe, and other lames... dude is ok to me. Not great. Some praise him for beating up Pavlik but come on now. Pavlik moved up in weight to fight him. Not to mention we all just learned that Pavlik is a MUMMY.- Boxing scenes own BADGUY



                      How big is your list?

                      Whilst i place RJJ and Lights Out above BHop all time he is still an ATG.....he had a historically significant run at 160......so he deserves to be somewhere.
