How would Hopkins have fared in the 80's?

Put Hopkins career in the 80's...how would he stack up?

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Good question

he would get beat by hagler and hearns on points

him and mccallum is 50/50

he probably beats everyone else

I wont use SRL since he only had 1 fight at mw and was really inactive most of the 80s

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Hopkins would def beat mugabi, barkley, nunn, tate, duran, jackson and a bunch of blown up welters like curry

Him and hagler would've been a brutal fight.

I honestly do not see any senerio where he has no chance of beating Hagler and Hearns to be honest those are 50/50 fights, i could see him roughing Hearns up

Hopkins couldnt get past taylor's jab,,, tommy hearns would be on his bike and popping that jab all day, and hopkins would be leery of hearns' power and would stay on the outside

Hagler early 80s would beat hopkins in a brawl or a boxing match, hagler was that good

Mccallum and hopkins is 50/50,, mccallum might have problems with hopkins movement and hopkins would have trouble with the chin, and skill level of mccallum

Couldnt get past roy jones' jab either,,,

Hopkins gives them all a good fight and has a chance to beat them all. All of them were very good but a little bit overrated imo.

Hagler is not overrated,,, neither is hearns,,, If they were around today they would be #1 and #2 p4p
