Trinidad was impressive. I would put Floyd vs Hatton above Pavlik tbh. Trinidad and Corrales were respectively two of the best performances in this era in terms of pure domination. Floyd has more big wins than those listed though, in comparison. Outside of the top 3 you move a bit down the list and Floyds top fights outweigh Bernards, though keep going deeper overall Hopkins fought better overall competition.Comment

Yeah if you're basing it SOLELY on who he fought, but resumes also go to include win-loss when talking about who is better. In which case a lot of that resume would be wiped off the list.Comment

oh shoot, you're right, forgot it was trinidads first fight at the wieght where he was fat and hitting 40Comment

wow you are really pulling at straws even for a floyd homer. If you love him so much why don't you guys go get married?Comment

I am sorry I included him. I will take your word that he is no good since I watched many of Hopkin's fights but certainly not all 20 of his defenses. I assumed Hakker was good because of his record but that can be misleading as some fighters get a good record by fighting lousy fighters.i understand what you're getting at but i wouldn't have included hakkar on that list. that was actually one of the most pitiful and cowardly performances i've seen in a championship fight. it's kind of insulting to hopkins to include him, and insulting to the fighters you listed him amongst hahaComment
