Comments Thread For: GGG: Look at Hopkins; My Record's Much Bigger, Stronger at 160!

[Joe Beamish]

Alvarez isn't on Trinidad's level. Not even close. Trinidad has a better resume than Alvarez @ BOTH 154 and 160.

I would also argue that Hopkins *dominating* Joppy and Keith Holmes are better wins than the gift decision Bumlovkin got over Jacobs...

Really? You've Trinidad as a world beater at MW?

Trinidad went 3-3 as a middleweight. Please.

I count 4 Hall of Famers on his list as well as 1-2 more that will be there.

And I also remember 5-6 other ones not being inducted but were honorable mentions they just didnt get the votes.


I don't see even 1 that will even be in the list. 37 years old and beat a single guy he beat you can say will be in the hall of fame.

Vanes is a BUM at MW. If you think he will make it to round 7 put your account up or some $$$....

4 hall of famers at middleweight?

[Chuckguy]

What you didnt??? Ohh thats right you scored every round 10-8 for GGG. Even three in some 11-4 rounds for good measure. Right Byrd jr.???

My boy is a huge clenelo fan boy and he didn’t have him winning a round until the 4th. I had ggg winning 115-113

It's amazing how people change their tunes and definitions of things when it comes to situations and topics like this.

Although I believe Hopkins fought better opposition his entire career, GGG’s argument is specifically during both of their 20 year title reigns. But of course a lot of idiots & morons here can’t stay on topic as usual. I was about to make the argument for Hopkins but when you look at the 20 opponents he faced, I only see (2) blown up welterweights Trinidad & De La Hoya, and A marginally good Glen Johnson. Simon Brown over the hill and another blown up welterweight. And 5 of his defenses were against average middleweights that he fought multiple times, Robert Allen & Echols, who the f....are they? And I don’t consider Joppy, Holmes, Eastman, & Daniels grade A middleweight contenders regardless of their records at the time. GGG on the other hand has fought Alvarez, Jacobs, Lemieux, and (1) blown up welterweight, Kell Brook, much better opposition than anyone on Hopkins resume. And he didn’t double down on certain opponents multiple times with any of his 20 defenses like Hopkins did. Here is the real test. If Hopkins couldn’t beat Jermain Taylor twice, could he have beaten Jacobs or Alvarez or at least fight to a draw with either.

Could Jacob's or Canelo beat Pavlik, Calzaghe, Wright, Trinidad, Oscar???

Man Jacob's just had a tough time with some guy who fights a lot at 154lber...And I like Canelo but if Khan made Canelo look foolish at times what would Wright do?

[Chuckguy]

Hopkins' W over Glen Johsnon - in all truthfulness - defecates and urinates on the WHOLE of Bumlovkin's resume. The Road Warrior moved up to LHW and beat the best guy there. Hopkins remains the ONLY man to hold a stoppage win over him...

Damn I miss the road warrior! Dude was legit and would have murked ggg

[Shadoww702]

4 hall of famers at middleweight?

Yup. Brook, and Vanes count???

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Golovkin as definitely fought more quality opponents.

Danny Jacobs alone shyts on most of Hopkins middleweight defenses

[Madison Boxing]

Yup. Brook, and Vanes count???

name the 4 hall of famers hopkins beat at 160

[Larry the boss]

So ask yourself this Larry why the fawk did your ficticuois lover Floyd only fight on two dates? Both having to do with Mexican history? Floyd is black why didn’t he fight on mlk weekend or the day they abolished slavery? I’m nit racist Larry im just making a point and you and others don’t seem to get it

Because those are the money weekends....did you read the post I replied to?? maybe you would understand my response

He isn't Mexican so why would he give a f**k about them and their ****** ass holiday?
