    Bernard Hopkins vs Gennady Golovkin @160

    I made a Hopkins vs Kovalev thread a while back and the general consensus was that despite Hopkins skills he was in his prime at 160 and Kovalev has always been too big. However this fight is much more evenly matched and as a big fan of both I fancy B-Hop to win a UD.

    How do you think the fight plays out and who would win? (Prime for prime of course)

    Why don't they fight now at 168?

      It all comes down to how hopkins handles GGG's power. Hopkins at 160 had the workrate and superior inside fighting skills but GGG has the power. I say hopkins wins a controversial UD but takes a beating in the process.

        Should be a good fight but at 50 I dont think he'll be able to compete as well with a relentless pressure fighter.
