[fragilety]

[Mr.Fantastic]

Damn you people are hurt that bad?

In his prime he was a middleweight but he had the skills to do what he did to Trinidad.

[Showtime..]

hopkins was beaten 2x by taylor and dawson.....JERMAINE TAYLOR

he da best boxer ever doe!

1. No one said he was the best.
2. Jermain would whip you around the ring. You assume he's a scrub for what reason?

I don't agree. Trinidad was past his best and was just not big or physical enough for Hopkins at that time in his career. kovalev is a natural light heavyweight with power in both hands and descent boxing skills. I think Hopkins at his best was better lb4lb but kovalev wouldn't have been able to fight at middleweight. hes just much too big

Who knows, but it was clear Hopkins had trouble closing the distance to get inside against Kovalev's jab.

B hops best shot would be Prime MW B Hop vs Teenager Kovalev.

How was Trinidad past his best when he fought BHop. He was the favourite going into the fight, was only in his late twenties, had a 40-0-0 record and was a reigning middleweight titlist.

[Beercules]

Where's everyone at? **** I picked Hopkins; Kovalev is the real deal
