    I think to officially retire BHop you would either have to KO him or give him a thorough beating over 12rds. I just dont think there is any fighter that can besides Ward that can do that. Your thoughts?

    Any cruiserweight champion..... and Dawson.

    Why even compare Hopkins to Cruiserweights? Those guys are huge compared to Light Heavies...

      Dawson? To be honest Id favor BHop in a rematch. Also Tarver was the champ at Cruiserweight until his positive drug test, Id favor Hopkins over him and that bum Kayode & Huck.

        Huck would destroy Hopkins... Sorry but Huck will keep on going after him, and has a fantastic chin, and pretty decent power. Huck should have won against a Heavyweight.

        Cruiserweights are far too big for Hopkins. It's not about skill, more about sheer size difference.

        The only title Tarver had at Cruiserweight is a IBO strap.. nothing worth bragging about.

        You can favour Hopkins over Dawson again, but that's your opinion. Dawson already beat Hopkins pretty soundly

          Sergey kovalev would end hopkins.. cloud was very one dimensional, hopkins already knew about that. Cloud was exposed against campillo who schooled cloud. Kovalev destroyed campillo. I know, styles makes fight. And i belive kovalev with his very heavy hands, accurate shots and boxing skill will bring hopkins down

              Ward couldn't do it he'd win but he wouldn't hurt Hopkins certainly not KO him. He can't punch that great

                  Came here to say this. I think Froch would punish B. Hop. but I can't count out the legendary B. Hop. If I was a betting man I think Froch could SD B. Hop.
