    I asked why they didnt do this feat in their prime.
    Why couldnt they win twenty in a row.
    Why couldnt they go undefeated in twenty straight title fights. Why couldnt they dominate like he did during their time.
    This is quite possibly the dumbest post I have ever read on here. I really can't believe what I've just read.

    Do you need me to go back and post all the posts I've already posted in this thread?

    Obviously the Middleweight division in the late 80's and early 90's was so jam-packed with so much depth of talent that it was impossible for any single star to emerge as 'the best'.

        Hopefully you gullable kids will stop hugging Hopkins' nuts now.
        160 has been empty for 10 years or more.
        Hopkins has not beat anybody aside from blown-up little guys..
        He was a fraud and grossly over-rated.
        Your role here seems to be to tell everyone that alltime greats are merley frauds. LOL

                Listen Juy Juy, its no problem you not rating hopkions but to flame him down like this when he was the dominant force for the past ten years is just plain ****** mate.


                He hasnt reigned in a great era and its a shame that we idnt see Nard stretched to his full potential but he IS still a top ten all time middle in the same way Lennox presided over a poor era in the heavies and is a top ten heavy.

                Your constant rmabnlings over Eubank who is lets face it a complete and utter **** nugget but a decent enough fighter while flaming hopkins doesnt stand you in good stead Im afriad.


                Dont take offence bro i liek ya but you are so wide of the mark on this its unreal.


                Hopkins would have smashed Eubank up, peice by piece and Im afriad this is coming form a a brit. In myu book Benn would have given hopkins more problems than Chris. Who by the way never fought anyone of Hopkins class while Benn did, (barkley G man). By the way saying his loss to Thompson was his best win just shwos up the bias and favouratism.

                Hopkins has achieved and will be ranked much higher than Chris in the all time lists, he has a been a good champ and fought everyone out there.

                He should have won on sat but got a tad to lazy in themiddle rounds and it cost him, i fully expect him to take it to Taylor should they have a rematch.

                sorry to disagree withy ou here but i cant support you in what i see as a facile and weak argument, Eubank is not in hopkins class cos he never mixed it in hopkins class outside Benn.

                And please dont start telling mer how calzaghe would dfo thuis or that to Hopkins, ive heard it all before and JC is a friggin joke.

                try and have at least a modicum of impartiality.

                  Every fighter that Eubank fought in all of his world title fights at middle and super-middle were all better than Hopkins. Think about it.. Eubank fought all of his mandatories, Hopkins was simply not good enough to be a mandatory contender in that era. And Hopkins is 18 months older than Eubank and started boxing 10 years earlier!

                  If you really want a fight we can fight, no problem at all just tell me where and when.

                    How comes no one talks about Eubanks? You know like other boxing fans and writers. He sounds great...

                      He didn't fight in America, so American's don't have enough knowledge of him. Plus he first won the title 15 years ago, he doesn't fight anymore
