    He's in the top 10 by default but he's not cracking the top 3. He looked like everybit of his age against when dawson dominated him.

    Hopkins keeps talking about being oldschool and keeps talking negative about Floyd wanting the spotlight. Well, He's doing the same thing right now.

    He keeps wanting extra points for his age and hopes we ignore the fact that he's level of competition is questionable.

      If he beats Stevenson and Kovalev then I would give him that spot.

        So B-Hop decisions Cloud, Murat, and Shumenov, and he's talking future #3 P4P? The f**k outta here. I mean major props to a senior citizen still doing this at a nice level, but dude is dreaming.

        Now if he cleans the floor with Stevenson and Kovalev or some ****, he may have a case. Til then though he's going to have to do a helluva lot more than Cloud/Murat/Shumenov.

          P4P who deserves to be higher than b hop if he's behind mayweather & ward? Nall that's a legitimate desire for b hop. And I argue you can find anyone more deserving of being behind mayweather & ward. For him to be a champion at that age is enough to put him in the mix. Top 10? Id say a bit higher than that. You do realize this muh****a is damn near 50 yrs old?

              I think he can continue to dream on that one.

                Correction. Dawson did NOT dominate him by any means. It was another hard to score fight. Dawson didn't dominate one round, even though he won many by default.

                  There was nothing hard to score on that fight. Hop was missing on a lot of his shots and couldn't even secure a clinche. Rewatch the fight, dude looked like an amateur in that fight.
