    The made comment to the effect that they'd hope that the commission would take their findings into account. Bunch of BS!:good

    I don't like it, Hopkins cried himself to the TKO, then cried himself to the ND.

    **** him.

    ..but it's still TKO2 until the CAC makes a decision.. hopefully they stand by the ref, as that was not foul, at least not by Dawson.. it was a foul by Hopkins that started it.

    This is an agenda driven move by the WBC. Same reason why they didn't order a rematch.

    Hopkins is'nt fooling the boxing fan because we know he's tried to pull off these frauds before.

    He's got his titles back, but he has to lay down every night knowing he's a fraud.

    I guess when you think about it, its punishment enough Hopkins has to go through and live with that.:yep

    The WBC Board of Governors, after reviewing the video of the fight, unanimously declared that the action reflects a Clear intentional lifting the body followed with a push by Dawson to Hopkins, that made him fall on his left side with part of his body out of the ropes.

    Wrong again, and as usual, I'm right. :yep

    There will be no rematch because ****** Dawson shot off at the mouth post fight and denied BHOP a rematch. So, the punk will get want he wanted.
    I wonder if Pascal is still interested in a rematch now that Dawson has no title? :rofl

    So, let me get this straight.

    Even though the commission is still to rule on overturning the official decision - it's still a TKO to Dawson - the WBC and the Ring have essentially stripped Dawson and given the belts back to Hopkins?

    That ruins any argument that the Ring are above shady commissions. The WBC and the Ring have now drawn a line in the sand where they can actually disagree with the official result of a fight, and give the belts to the loser if they so feel like it.

    Wow. And who said they couldn't get any worse.

    Hope So... How about a neutral site? Nah, in order for the dollars to make sense, it has to be in your boys backyard. Wish'em luck...

    On another note, glad to find someone with a sense of humor and general common sense. Look forward to future exchanges!!!:good
