    Just look at what Hopkins did to undefeated pavlik
    115-110, people forget there was a knockdown compared to 120-108.

      Yes, he lost to him. In a fight that I, and many others believed he won. Same crap from Williams in the first fight. Arm punching, no defense, win rounds with activity. I'm not impressed, sorry.

      People forget that Martinez hasn't clearly lost a fight in 10 years, and it was to a much more developed Antonio Margarito. That's right 2000 was the last clear loss.

      In fact, you could even compare BHop and Martinez in the way that BHop lost to a well known, more developed fighter in Roy Jones, then went on a huge streak against primarily unknowns and fringe contenders.

        Hopkins would kill Sergio. Sergio wouldnt even win a single round. Too big, too strong, too tough, too smart, too physcial, and just plain out too good for Sergio and Im a big Sergio fan

          He was 26 then and margarito was what 22? Also comparing losing to Jones 116-112 and getting demolished by margarito is nuts.

              Sergio faced absolute nobodies until Cintron

              In the Ring yearly rankings , it showed Sergio jumped about 3000 spots from last years rankings

              Plus he lost to a developped Marg? No

              It was like 17-0 Sergio facing 20-3 marg

              Dont compare Sergios career to Bhops

                Pavlik above 160 is not the same, that was evident. Just like Tito at 160 and DLH at 160, in other words, the 3 marquee Hopkins wins.

                Antonio Tarver is the only real high quality champion that Hopkins beat at their optimum weight.

                John David Jackson - fought Hopkins coming off a loss. No love from me for that one. Also had been TKOed a couple years prior.

                  Everyone underestimates Sergio, Everyone!

                  He is always the B-side, the experiment, the overlooked opponent.
