Hopkins vs GGG at 160

[Real King Kong]

Taylor was on top of his game, and after that fight he was regarded as the top middleweight

Captain-Save-A-Hoe... making excuses for his timid girlfriend since... well, forever

Still haven’t given an explanation as to why you think Taylor was an “outstanding” fighter. Like I said B level at best...losing those fights was a stain on Hopkins at the time. Taylor barely sc****d by blown up ww Cory spinks and should have lost to wright.

And you could say that the guy who went life and death with Mercado in 2 fights, 24 rounds, is not beating GGG.

GGG-Bhop wouldn't have been an easy fight for either guy. No one has really ever had an easy fight against either of those guys. Maybe RJJ vs Bhop in the first fight but I bet Roy would tell you that it wasn't easy at all really.

only shlthead casual-fans regard the guy who avoided every mover-spoiler who called him out, as a great fighter...

and only those same shlthead casual-fans would bet anything tangible on him beating Hopkins

No,Taylor won because he was younger and faster, and Bhop didn't have the power to hurt him.Good punches took him out without a problem.Taylor was never great.The rest of hes record proves that.Hopkins ran for hes life with Howard Eastman ,was very cautious with Trinidad,fell out the ring when getting out fought by Allen,was hurt by Mercardo.He might well nick a points decision, hes not putting it on Golovkin, no body attack. He stays away. Bull****kin.Youre such a wally ain't ya lol

Trinidad, Joppy, Hoya were all "younger and faster" than Hopkins

that did not help them, did it?

you g-tards need to stop talking shlt

he beat a genuine ATG TWICE... you shlt-eating ***wit

the Taylor who beat Hopkins was outstanding, and at that time he was regarded as the best middleweight on the planet

That's an interesting fight.

There's no reason to think that Hopkins couldn't handle GGG's punches. The question then is would GGG receive a boxing lesson?

If it went to the cards, objectively, you'd have to give the edge to Hopkins. It's what his whole career is based on besides the body shot to ODLH. While GGG may have the highest KO %, it's not against all ATGs. The only ATG he did fight, he had a draw and then got a boxing lesson.

So, I don't know. I guess I would tentatively give the edge to Hopkins.

Man what a tremendously low bar to say Canelo gave GGG a boxing lesson in fight 2 lol. Canelo fought well, fought well in both fights really. But GGG is a tough matchup for him because GGG is a lot more active than Canelo. Canelo only fights in spurts, likely because he is worried about his stamina.

That's why Canelo got outlanded by 50 punches in fight 1 and 30 in fight 2. Hardly a 'draw' and a boxing lesson....

I don't think you're reasonable at all when it comes to GGG.

So many of his critics on here are so over the top, if they just were reasonable with their criticism, there is a lot of stuff to get on him for. Just like there is for any fighter.

Stick with that stuff and you will present a better case.

He was considered the best mw after he beat Hopkins who put forth notably pedestrian efforts in both fights and was widely criticized for it. Taylor did nothing remotely great before or after.

I mean, with all the knowledge you claim to have, I was expecting you to explain what traits made him “outstanding” or speak on his technical ability or something. Nope lol.

I've honestly seen less crazy claims from people on here, pro-GGG, than I've seen for almost any other star really.

Almost every GGG 'fan' on here seems willing to criticize him too. I don't recall seeing anyone saying he beat Sergei 10-2. whereas you have GGG haters who say he lost both fights to Canelo, lost to Jacobs, and Sergei lol. People just look silly on here with the over the top GGG hate.
