    But all the haters don't mention it. I was at the fight, watch the middle stage of the second round, B-Hop hits him with an fine uppercut and Chad loses his balance and his glove touches the ground (similar to the Tarver KD).
    That's two fights in a row in which B-Hop desn't get knockdowns he deserves, the industry just hates him and cheats him consistently.

    Problem: 11 from 29 + a legit knockdown, compared to 7 from 55

    Solution: body Slam the champ, steal the belt and cheat the fans

    No it wasn't. He clinched him with his left arm after he landed the punch, he didn't push him. Dawson said he was pushed and ref didn't catch it, but Hopkins didn't complain about it because he already seen the holes in Dawson towards the end of the second and the same would of happened again as the fight continued.

    I guess that push equals uppercut

    You create a new thread on this a few minutes after bumping the last? Why are you so offended? The fight is already a NC

    I agree that it was a knockdown. The HBO comentators said nothing about it. It clearly showed in the replay that a punch caused it.

    I am just re-watching the fight now and I was gonna post this, that was a legitimate knock down and quote frankly I think BHOP won the first 2 rounds.

    Even skully told dawson not to get frustrated in the first round, bhop landed more of the significant punches in rd1 and he fought at his pace not dawson's pace

    second round dawson did a little better but he was kd

    In the clinches bhop and dawson both were tapping each other with gloves softening up their bodies

    the referee was a total bag of ****. Did you see in round 1 where dawson had his forearm in bhop's throat and the ref had to seperate them? did he even say anything to dawson?

    Knocked down my ass, this is not the NFL. The WBC Board OF Governors unanimously agreed on the foul and the technical draw and Bernard remaining the titlist. Why do you want to make this look like Tarver vs Jones II? Even Dawson called himself Legend Killer... You bunch of ignorant members.

    EEither way, I didn't see ****! It is what it is and now go back to the other fights and let Bernard recover and get back to serious training and do a rough job on this soft spoken kid from NH, Co.

    Watch it carefully. Bernard has his left hand completely around Dawson's waist and he pushes him down with his right... clearly not a knockdown.
