    Prime Hopkins vs Himself, today...

    Think about it for a moment. Would the younger, 20 title defences undisputed MW king of 10-15 years ago be able to beat a version of himself today, with his more evolved, highly technical and more awkward style?

    Would youth prevail over experience?

    Yes, he's got more cunning with age

    I don't care, but I did enjoy watching Pascal run like a pansy.

    Pointless thread. Surely by using the description "Prime" you answer your own question????

        I really don't think Hopkins has gotten more smart or cunning with age.He was as intelligent,crafty and dirty a decade ago as he is now.Difference between the Hopkins of today and then is that he was a far more consistent fighter with better stamina in his prime.Outworking Hopkins back then wasn't really an option.
