In terms on popularity and drawing power...
I started following boxing seriously in 2010, so correct me if I am wrong or if you strongly disagree. But I consider 2001 to 2008 to be Hopkin's best years as far as both actual performance and popularity. It was the stretch from fighting Trinidad to Kelly Pavlik.
Comparing 2001 to 2008 Hopkins to Lomachenko's 7 year pro career so far, who is/was more popular of the two?

Loma has fanboi-ism that I've never seen in such amount for Hopkins, not even among the DBN type crew. People in just a couple years gave Loma status even beyond what it took Hop decades to achieve

Re: Lomachenko vs Bernard Hopkins
What a weird comparison? What's the logic for comparing Lomachenko to Hopkins?
