Have you personally observed much of his living and training? Can you prove he is, without question, better at 50 than most fighters will ever be in their prime? How would you define "better," and what gives you the right to make that judgment about Hopkins or the competition?
I'd say you are contradicting your own "faith vs. logic" statement.

Faith is based on a logical conclusion of one missing piece in the face of present evidence.
To summarize the great creation vs. evolution debate, there is science and archaeology for both. The last piece of creation is the Creator itself; the one thing that can't physically be measured or observed. In evolution, the process itself can't be observed (as it takes too long, allegedly); the transitional species don't exist anywhere in the fossil record; and life can't come from non-living material. It's by faith that people have to accept those things have occurred.
It's not science vs. religion. Both have science, and religion is simply the way one practices their life according to their own worldview.
It's also not logic vs. faith, as faith is about putting trust in an incomplete corner of the puzzle based on logical conclusions.
These things aren't mutually exclusive to one another, but the uneducated majority in Europe and America are indoctrinated to believe as such.
