    from what i saw and this depends on witch angle u look at it from, b-hop is the one who leaned on his back just shy of jumping on him. he has done this before, lean on opponent whit all his weight, do we blame dawson for being strong enough to shove him off his back or should he have takin a knee as to get the weight off his back. being that this is b-hop, a dirty fighter who is the one always complayning i have trouble bieleving him, he even pushes off his left shoulder to get off the groud. i dont know what to think about this mess. lets just wait and see what doctors have to say about this and we migh have a better idea what to make of this mess.

    Should be a DQ. If you headbutt someone to open his skull you get DQ'd. Dislocating someone's shoulder on a judo move is also DQ. No argument here whatsoever, you saw the move, I saw the move, it's a DQ end of story.

    Will this disgrace be overturned? IN BOXING? :lol:

    :-(

    Once again the WBC are not the rule enforces in these situations, unified rules of assosicated boxing commission will decide, not the We Be Crooks

    That's not what I meant, you moron. Tell me this: who would you think would be more susceptible to being injured by something simple, a 46 year old athlete, or a non athlete of the same age?

    We keep watching this in slo-mo and it doesn't look so bad, but it looks bad at normal speed. Hopkins went down pretty hard and he probably isn't faking it, people can pick up quite serious injuries from what look like innocuous falls.
    I don't think Dawson should be DQ'd but I think the result should be changed to a NC. Hopkins didn't jump on his back it's the momentum from his right that carried him forward and Dawson ducks very low to avoid the shot. Dawson obviously had to shrug him off but he probably could have done that differently, it was all rather WWF...

    Are you ****ing ******ed? just because someone who isn't an athlete is more likely to get injured then an actual athlete it doesn't mean athletes are automatically immune from any sorts of injury.

    ****ing hell you really are a thick ****.

    It should be a ND or NC, as Harold Lederman explained.

    I think, to try to maintain some kind of authority, the CAC will not overturn the decision.

    Didnt Vitali Klit get a injury sort of like this against Bird? And i dont consider him a fake esp at this point. I know he hurt it in a diff way but if i even do shoulder presses in the gym and pull something out im fuked for a few weeks. Guess what im saying is the whole shoulder area is very delicate and if this was real would be tough to go on.

    The fight will stand as it is.

    A rematch will be ordered, but Hopkins will probably just retire.

    He's scared shytless of Dawson now. Hopkins brings out the Bad in Chad.
