      How can you mention king in the same sentence as 2000 and not mention Roy Jones Jr?

        The thing is, they all fought each other. Same way the four kings of the 80s did. Hopkins never fought Floyd or Manny

          So you had 1 king..Floyd since he beat all of them and lost to none..the 4 kings in the 80's were beating each other and there was no clear #1...It doesnt work here
