    That's a pretty good list, I would maybe put Golovkin in the bottom there somewhere.

        As amazing as Hopkin's accomplishments have been, my understanding is that the P4P is a list of today's best. Not a who's who of boxing over the last several decades. If the P4P list were to take into consideration an accomplishment of becoming a unifying title holder at a certain again, then put him in there. But I view the list as the hands down best fighters today. Defeating Shumenov, regardless of your age, does not warrant a spot. Defeating the best in your division (Stevenson and Kovalev) would justify a spot on the list. I dont think age should be a criteria for determining who are the best fighters today. If you're the best, then you're the best. Whether 19 or 49, the question is, how good are you really? Tep ten P4P?

          Because the master didn't want to fight his protege... Which is explainable...

            Hopkins fights in a parallel universe -- therefore he needs to be ranked in a parallel p4p list.

                It wouldn't matter if Shumenov was 20 years old and ten foot tall because he would still be a horrible fighter.

                  Respects to Hopkins but he shouldn't be ranked that high. He just beat a paper champ that had less than 15 wins. The light heavyweight division is actually weak compared to some of the other divisions and Hopkins still has enough left to prove it.

                    BHop got his ass spanked by Dawson. You think he wants any of Ward?

                      Dawson was more active than B-Hop, but that was the deciding factor. Chad couldn't get a clean hit off of him, so I need you 2 to clarify how he got spanked/dominated.......

                      I agree, with the default being that Dawson was more busier, but Chad ain't put nothing on B-Hop....
