      That fight was nasty too! He trashed him. It it kind of funny most of his great fights are one sided.

      I don't know what to pick. Its definitely between Glenn Johnson, Jean Pascal, Tito Trinidad and Kelly Pavlik. If I had to pick, it'd probably be Pascal since he came back from the knockdowns.

      Although the beatdown of Tarver and the comeback on Jermain Taylor in the 1st fight had it's moments too. This goes to show Hopkins isn't as boring as the haters make him out to be with there bull*****.

        his 24 second KO of steve frank

        honestly, the trinidad fight was one of the greatest displays of the sweet science I've ever seen in my life. I too can watch that over and over. Perfection.

        Echols, for obvious reasons.

        Here is one that is overlooked, his fight with Simon Brown. Hopkins was a monster back then and just about every punch he threw was intended to be a KO blow. Very exciting at the time

          Echols +1

            For me it was against Pavlik because it took me by surprise, I thought more dirty boxing and stealing rounds. After the Calzaghe fight I didn't expect anything like that from him. His performance was a masterclass.
            Against Pascal he was like something from a Rocky script except for the shameful decision.

                    Agree with the Bold, and versus Glen Johnson an absolute massacre.

                      His second fight vs Echols imo. I know people mentioned the first one, but the second one feels like their is a lot more bad blood between the two. Everything I like about Hopkins in one fight imo. He made Echols his ***** through and through
