Why does everyone rate Hopkins higher P4P then Spinks

[quintonjacksonfan]

Is it because of a longer reign? Spinks never lost at his best weight
Hopkins lost three times. Hopkins beat a 37 year old Tarver who was
15 pounds higher then Hopkins natural weight. Hopkins also beat a 35
year old Wright who weighed 10 pounds more then Hopkins 160
Spinks beat a 31 year Old Gerry Conney who was 63 pounds above Spinks natural weight and a 35 year old Larry Holmes who was 48 pounds more then Spinks natural weight. He also stopped Holmes
from tying the most important record in boxing history
I know people think Holmes was shot but he picked up some nice wins in the 90's

Who's "everyone"?

Michael is generally regarded as an ATG, and I haven't seen all these people say "Hopkins is p4p greater than Spinks".

I rate Spinks as the number one light heavyweight of all-time and I rate him in my all-time pound-for-pound top ten

[My dinner with Conteh]

I rate Spinks ahead.
