Bernard Hopkins has a stronger resume than any other fighter.

    it's bull**** when hopkins has taken on great smaller men & great big men (everyone)

    JMM & morales were both smaller then pac & pac gets FULL credit for fighting both men.

    plus oscar & tito could no longer make their previous weights & was FORCED to move up or be drained.

    this is why it's VERY easy for posters to accuse you of "trolling"

    your complement was a backhanded one. & complement wrapped around a insult.

    i know it hurts to see such a marvelous fighter in b hop

      Great big men? Who exactly are those?

      LMAO @ Oscar not being able to make weight. Get out of here with that crap.

      So what if they accuse me of trolling. Doesn't affect me one bit. But don't you think it's ironic that I get green ks then?

      I think he's a great boxer. I do hate on BHop for the shit that he deserves but I also give him mad props when he does "great" things. Like he has recently is one of them.

        Especially because he used the word "admit". It comes across as biased.

          Well he did have about 60 extra years to accumulate that resume over pretty much every active fighter.

              Calzaghe is an ATG at his weight. Hopkins was fighting bums as well or little guys at 160.

                yes, he has the best resume but Pacman resume is in the same level

                Hopkins: L: RJJ, Jermain Taylor, Joe Calzaghe
                W: Glen Johnson, De La Hoya, Trinidad, Antonio Tarver, Kelly Pavlik, Jean Pascal, Winky Wrights

                Manny Pacquiao: L: Erik Morales
                W: Marco Antonio Barrera (2), Erik Morales(2), Juan Manuel Marquez, Oscar Larios, Jorge Solis, David Diaz, Oscar De La Hoya, Ricky Hatton, Miguel Angel Cotto, Joshua Clottey, Antonio Margarito, Shane Mosley.

                Hopkins: I dont give credit for Wright, and in my opinion Jean Pascal is not the best LHW

                Pacquiao: In my opinion the second fight against Marquez he loss, in my opinion Oscar, Hatton, Cotto, Margarito and Mosley are past his prime but I give credit to Pacman for the physical difference

                  I chuckle a bit on how the hopkins - calzaghe fight has grown over time to the myth it is now. No sorry, it was not a robbery, and most people felt at the time that calzaghe had won. Just go back to the archives and look, if you don't remember it.

                  No one outside of Roy Jones has had such success going on the offensive against bernard.

                  Please go back and watch the fight again, and tell us all which rounds you gave b-hop.

                  ---

                  As for the topic, yeah maybe if you're talking about currently active fighters. All time? Not even close.

                  Holyfield, Roy Jones jr and pacquiao are still active aswell. Worth a thought.

                    A weight class that has only existed for like 30 years or so? Not too difficult when the other ATG is Sven Ottke (who reigned at the same time as calzaghe yet they never fought amazingly) and basically Carl Froch and Ward are pretty much even with Calzaghe's SMW career already.

                    Hopkins was fighting bums as well or little guys at 160.
                    Hopkins fought EVERYONE there was to fight at 160, and the only "little guys" he fought at MW was Trinidad who was a MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMPION when Hopkins fought him and it was to unify ALL of the belts, and Oscar, who did look bad at 160 vs sturm, but that was his money fight, not a single fighter in the world would turn down a fight with Oscar.
