Comments Thread For: Hopkins: No Excuses, Golovkin Should Fight Kovalev!

[Jsmooth9876]

Yep, when there was actual competition at MW. GGG has been a MW for how long? And his best win is who? William Joppy is a better win a MW for Hopkins than anybody GGG has faced Hopkins last fight was against Kovalev at the age of 49!!! Hopkins resume from 2010-2014 (45 years old- 49 years old) ****'s on ggg's.

Oh, right, because GGG career is over already....

Hopkins is a legend no doubt but to say his reign at middleweight shh on golovkin is hilarious as fk and wrong..FACTUALLY wrong.

Trinidad

De La Hoya

Joppy

The last two would be considered ggg's best wins if he fought them today.

This, people forget that Hopkins fought at a very weak 160lb division too....

Exactly. He waited until Trinadad came from 147-154 and that was his signature win at the time... He moved on to win great fights and become a legend but his stay at middleweight wasn't littered with ATG fighters lol...

Hilarious that the first two names are guys that never fought at middleweight minus like 1 fight prior...
Names for sure but not middleweights by any stretch.

So in 3 years we can say GGG beat Canelo,Brook,Jacobs and one other middling middleweight and that would be equal to the guys you just listed bud.

yeah, I was so disappointed back then that Hopkins-Allen 4, Hopkins-Echols 3, Hopkins-Hakkar 2, Hopkins-Vanderpool 2, and Hopkins-Council 2 never got made.....

LMAO at tossing in De La Dive in there....So in a decade plus in the U.S. he fought 4 total names in a reign that spanned twelve plus years. You want to compare him to a guy that spent almost his full seven unrecognized outside of europe. Talk about grasping at straws.

[Chollo Vista]

Hopkins is 100% right

[Larry the boss]

Your reply to me was IT'S NOT ABOUT HEART

WTF?

Yea Hopkins MOVED UP...AFTER he Lost HIS TITLES..when he was champion HE DID NOT MOVE UP

[hitking]

I disagree with X in that I'd rather aee Ward-Kovalev than Kovalev-GGG. As for GGG moving up to light heavyweight to fight the Ward-Kovalev winner, its a no-brainer. Unfortunately for Gennady, the Canelo thing is unlikely. At least in the next 12mons. The closest elite to GGG in terms of weight will be the Ward-Kovalev winner. Will be an excellent superfight for the first has of 2017.

GBP and Team Canelo should have just kept it low-key, maybe even keep on pretending they were willing to take the fight (even if they weren't going to).

Because all this talk from Canelo, Reynoso, DLH, Gomez and Hopkins ****ting on a guy they want no part off is just going to make the inevitable duck even more embarrassing.

It's like they're cribbing posts from BoxingScene thread. What are they thinking?
