    Yeah, BTW do people really give points to Hopkins for those shots he lands when he's clinching?

    The only clear punch of that round was that hook in the last minute of the round. Hopkins did sht.

    Some good shots in the second half of the round. Not many, but it's still more than nothing.

    I saw all those shots getting blocked by Dawson or barely landing. Dawson landed a clear hook in the last minute.

    Basically this. Chad was up 2-0 after 2 inactive rounds.

    I was drunk, but I saw Dawson winning and Bernard looking frustrated, old and slow. He didn't look good at all and I thought Dawson was on his way to winning pretty easily

    Dawson was up 2 rounds to nothing, imo.

    Hopkins is one of the few men in the sport that can win a round just by being difficult, even if he didn't do anything significant himself...

    I gave both rounds to Chad since he landed the most significant shots in both rounds. They were not impressive, but better than what BHop did. The rounds were close because neither did much, but I think it's pretty clear who did more in each round.
