    Marquez has better wins and fight of the year candidates under his belt. Plus is the first Mexican 4 division champion.
    Hopkins late career run was down right amazing,outside of the Manny wins Juan does not have really great wins to be honest..but he is a great fighter as well

        Great fighters.

        Plenty of guys to take over, America's got a bunch of top welters in the mix still, Canelo is young, and as much as I hate to say it, Vlad retiring will benefit the HW division... other than that, GGG and Kovalev are the obvious next two to be Kings. And don't forget the Cruiserweights!

              I don't find it that impressive, he lost to every top fighter he fought on that late career run and was usually dominated.

              His best win pre Calzaghe is Pascal and that's just decent.

              But to each his own. I have Marquez #3 of this era.

                  Era was good.. but Floyd and Pac had fans spinning their wheels for 5 years and then finally delivered a steaming stinking dud. That's what this era will ultimately be remembered for the most.

                      My favorite moments of Hopjins career is when he used to stand up to Larry Merchant and put him in his place, the way he made Merchant look for excuses for Pavlik while he was giving Pavlik an ass whooping was an amazing moment to me.

                      They should work more on promoting Terence Crawford man, I think he's the best out of the bunch he just needs to know how to sell himself better and become more interesting as a character. Arum better learn from his Mayweather experience which cost him hundreds of millions and really pay attention to the new guy, invest more in him and in trying to make him a bigger star, if he doesn't, Crawford should break free and go to Haymon, tons of excellent fights could be made on that side.
