"Alien" Hopkins vs "Krusher" Kovalev Post fight Discussion thread

[Larry the boss]

Welcome aboard brother. I don't know why it took you that long to realize it.

I have said that for awhile now

[samouraļ]

He's already accomplished more than Floyd. Kovalev would just make it impossible for Floyd to ever catch up.

[turnedup]

Why would anyone need to put him above Floyd? He's done a hell of a lot more remarkable things in the sport than Floyd. Folks forget Hopkins didn't come into the game the legacy of a family of boxers, with favorable circumstances. Folks also forget how dirty boxing tried to do Hopkins before he got a belt. Those who value records above all will always keep floyd as the TBE in their mind.Those who go through the resume, the challenges of jumping divisions and who can honestly view the politics of boxing will vastly appreciate what hopkins has done much more.

Excellent post. Floyd favored vs everyone. Best win Chico Corrales.

B-Hop 50 yo, undressed countless prime younger champs as the underdog.

It really doesn't take an astronaut.
