    Sorry - don't have the links but was at both fights. The first fight B-Hop didn't do anything for the first half of the fight - he basically gave away every round. Then he started coming on a bit but it was too late. Jermain's athleticism helped him and Jermain did enough to squeak it out on points but he didn't "take the belt" in my view. I don't remember the second fight as much.

    You dont have to watch both, just watch one of them, the other is a carbon copy.

    What was Hopkins thinking, taking the early rounds off? He's one of the smartest fighters ever. It doesn't make sense.

    The fact that he likely just needed to bank one extra round each time to win is the troubling part.
