Is there an argument for Hopkins to be top 10-15 ATG?

    hell no
    every time somebody wins a belt, this crap comes up
    Hopkins is adding slowly to a good resume
    Murat doesn't add much alone, nor did Cloud or Pascal
    Hopkins has decent to good wins piling up over a long period
    he doesn't have the resume to be up that high though

        He's great but I can't say whether he's a top 10-15 ATG

          Any active fighter gets ridiculously underrated.

              Bernard Hopkins is one of the greatest fighters of all time and he will be regarded that way more and more as the years go on. 10-15 ATG? Sure. I got no problems with that.

                He is an ATG, but i dont think he is top 15 ATG, he is probably around 30-75 range depending on what criteria you use,,,,

                I dont think you could have him higher than a duran or hearns,,,,,,,, Roy jones beat him, so in theory jones would be ranked higher if going by H2H......

                No disrespect to HOpkins,,,, He is a great fighter, i just dont think he is a top 15 guy,,,

                I cant place him up there with the SRL, SRR, ALI class,,,,

                  he'd have monzon and hagler to deal with, so yeah, if he had those two on his resume, it would be hard to argue he wasn't.

                    All time? . . . Not for me.

                    Last 20 years? . . . Without doubt.
