How long would prime hopkins last against Golovkin?

[Pac=Duran]

Yeah cause prime is over 40 years old.

jermaine Taylor was ahead easily on all scorecards vs Froch and Abraham if I am not mistaken. He's the definition of mental midget. His record should be far far better than it is.

And Scipio comes in with ******ed thoughts and opinions.. as usual

Hopkins has the chin to survive, dirty underhanded tactics to win a UD..

However, I wouldn't be surprised if GGG wins by beating Hoppy to the body

Tyson Fluffy, huh?

Anyone on here now the rules around folks having several separate accounts on this site, more importantly why the site moderators simply let it happen?

[Scipio2009]

Was prime Hopkins the guy who got outworked 2x by Jermain Taylor?

With Hopkins already being 40 by that point, I'd sincerely doubt it (Golovkin gets sparked by that Hopkins too). With Hopkins being such a cerebral fighter who had enough physical skills to hang, I wouldn't be at all opposed to calling the B-Hop who fought Felix Trinidad "prime Bernard Hopkins".

Hahaha...
I am GGG fan myself but come on... Best & hardest hitting Lightheavyweight of the World, Sergey "Krusher" Kovalev couldn't KO 50 years old out f prime Bernard Hopkins...

How can a guy who 2 weight divisions under... middleweight can KO him?
Even if it's GGG... No ****, no way.

lol

[LetOutTheCage]

I wouldn't be surprised if current Hopkins beat's GGG. Prime Hopkins schools him.

[CraigM]

Hopkins pretty easily at middleweight.

GGG needs a star fight to even come close to comparison

[firstborn]

I'm curious, what race are you?

What does his race have to do with anything? Does your race automatically influence your opinion when it comes to boxing? GGG is a hell of a fighter but the fact is B-Hop is pretty special too.

I wouldn't be surprised if current Hopkins beat's GGG. Prime Hopkins schools him.

Prime Bernard Hopkins (Trinidad fight)

Tough philly fighter, mentally strong, physically peak, all round great fighter, can push you back, box off the back foot, fight inside and a master of trickery

VS.

GGG

Heavy puncher, can box a little, unknown on the backfoot, great at cutting distance but slow on his feet.

Only outcome here my friends is Hopkins whoops his ass all day, everyday and yes he can stop GGG, he isnt this monster that everyone makes him out to be, hes human just like the rest of the killers before.

Hopkins in his prime beats him up on the inside, control his range of movement using elbows and leverage on the inside then box him off the back foot when he chooses too.
