In your opinion, whether he won or lost, what are your top 5 most significant bouts in Bernard Hopkin's career?
02. Pascal - have to go with that because with that win he will always be remembered as the oldest man who won a significant title...
03. Tarver - most def. impressive to move up in weight and beat the best Light Heavy at the time in dominating fashion...
04. G. Johnson - some sort of win that at first doesn't looked too impressive but gotten more impressive with time... not in that BIG of a way like the Nelson win for Sanchez but still... Glen gives everyone a hard and competive fight... Hopkins was really great in this one and knocked him out...
05. I leave the 5th spot open till he retires... I have a feeling that he may add another accomplishment to it (and I'm not talking about Chad :-) - if not I have to go with either Pavlik, Mercado I or Taylor I
DLH doesn't make the cut for me - probably it was Hopkins biggest PPV but somehow I even sometimes forget that he even beat DLH - IDK why, but this win really ain't has a big significance to me... DLH ain't looked good against Sturm and I think was already at the end of his career... Tito at least looked good in his MW bouts prior to Hopkins...

1) Felix Trinidad
2) Oscar De La Hoya
3) Jean Pascal
4) Kelly Pavlik
5) Antonio Tarver
Each win basically resurrected his career at a time when it seemed like he was fading.

Besides, it's easy because those 3 were already established decently at HW, unlike most of the guys who came UP to face Hopkins.
I know you like to troll me and I love talking to you because you make me laugh but you should already gotten the point when Domination owned you with the weight/height theory. You just don't learn do you?

Remind me of Haye's resume at HW.......furthermore, you ****ted on Hagler resume when the guy he had beat also established themselves more at Middleweight.......
You tell me, who established themselves more at Midlleweight/Heavyweight..........Hearns/Duran or Adamek/Haye
Your point essentially is that anyone who's resume is built on facing undersized guys is overrated...so Im shocked that you rate the Klits so highly.....but your quick to down Hopkins and Hagler.......

Jones 1-After that he went on a tear,seemed like he refused to lose after that
2-Pascal-46 beating a 29 year old to be the olds not only title holder but lineal champion in history
3-Tito great fight put him on the map
4-Tarver-after loses(i thought he won)to Taylor he jumped up 2 divisions and beat the hell out of the ring champ
5-Pavlik-his expression after the fight looking at the media says it all

Yea I **** on Hagler at Middleweight. And? But it's really silly to ask about being established with Adamek/Haye considering they are still fighting.
I just told you moron, don't blame me, blame the ones who made the divisions up. They all fight at HW, established themselves AT HW and a lot of Klit's opponents have weighed more or around their same weight. I also told you the Adamek fight isn't what people make it to be, but since you're not satisfied, you keep trying to flip it and flip it to where it makes it seem I'm exposing myself to make you feel good.
