      Hopkins-Trinidad. People don't realize how badly written off Hopkins was for this fight. The guy was 35 years old and being called old and past it, while Trinidad was like 29 and undefeated, knocking almost every one out they put in front of him.

        Why is Hopkins-Pascal II on there??? Unless I misunderstood what exactly you're asking. I'd probably say Hopkins-Trinidad is up there.

            Mayweather-Mosley > Hopkins-Pascal.....who the fu*k is Pascal?

            Mayweather beat Mosley when he was the #1 WW and #3 P4P fighter in the world. Remember when everyone said Mayweather would never fight Mosley? IMO that win is much better than Hopkins win over Pascal...

                Slipped my mind. Another good one. A lot of people look back in hindsight and swear to god they knew Hopkins was going to win. Pisses me off to be honest, I thought Hopkins was gonna get raped in close.

                  I wouldn't put Jones in that list, his era was the 90s. Hence him winning the FOTD in the 90s, and he definitely had some of the best wins in the 90s, Hopkins, Toney, McCallum. I would rate his win over Gonzalez and Tarver in the 2000s better than Ruiz, but the accomplishment of winning the WBA title is the biggest accomplishment of his era.

                    I disagree bro. Sure it night have been worth more, but Hopkins won over 40. It was a great win for Hopkins and I think it was a great win for the era.
