Comedy gold from a recent Bernard Hopkins teleconference.

CHRIS MURRAY: OK, next question then. Speaking of your ranking in history, there have been a lot of great middleweights from Ray Robinson to Carlos Manzon, Marvin Hagler as you've mentioned and what have you. You say you're more like Marvin Hagler. What have you, how would you rank yourself when it's all said and done? How do you rank amongst all the great middleweights of all time?
BERNARD HOPKINS: And would you name them? Would you name at least five of them?
CHRIS MURRAY: I would say Ray Robinson to Carlos Manzon, Marvin Hagler and then yeah, Marvin Hagler and also - yeah, yeah, those three guys.
BERNARD HOPKINS: Well, I like to be rated - are you going to throw Ray Leonard in there? Are you going to?
CHRIS MURRAY: Yeah, I'll throw Ray Leonard in there. OK.
BERNARD HOPKINS: No, let's not put Ray Leonard in there. I just wanted you to mention him, but I've got a person that I want to put in there and that's Carlos Manzon.
CHRIS MURRAY: Good. OK. Yeah. Well, I mentioned Carlos Manzon.
BERNARD HOPKINS: So, in that list of four or five why would it be five?
CHRIS MURRAY: OK.
