    I have never witnessed a fight when a fighter has dominated so much of the fight except for 2 punches landed against him(neither having hurt him), one on the back of the head, and still lost the fight. Despite the fact Hopkins won literally every single possible criteria for who should win a fight, he somehow managed to lose in Canada. Let us systematically breakdown the criteria for who should win the fight to determine who the winner was. I will be listing any possible criteria one can judge to determine who would win the fight.

    Fighters reaction at the end: Hopkins
    Combos: Hopkins
    Punches landed: Hopkins
    Power punches: Hopkins
    Jabs: Hopkins
    Activity: Hopkins
    Aggressor: Hopkins
    Showboating: Hopkins
    Harder shots: Hopkins
    Body work:Hopkins
    Knock downs: Pascal
    Energy level at the end: Hopkins
    Momentum of fight: Hopkins
    Corners reaction: Hopkins
    Fighters reaction in the corner: Hopkins
    Sharper punches: Hopkins
    Crowd: Pascal
    Facial Damage given: Hopkins
    Connect Percentage: Hopkins
    Ring Generalship: Hopkins

    Note that these are not any type of esoteric criteria. These are not only common sense, but common reasons people claim someone won a fight.

    To all you delusional people who say the fight was close, or even more pathetic, that Pascal won, it's time to come back to reality and face the facts presented . I can promise you that you can not and will not try to argue with my specific points showing that Bernard clearly won. It's not debatable really. All you have managed to claim so far was a vague " i thought Pascal won the fight". I guess we will have to take you word despite the obvious evidence against you claim, or the fact you couldn't really give any reason why he won.

    It's really sad that Bernard was cheated out of becoming the oldest title holder, as a underdog, because of corrupt Canadian judges.

    Santa Cruz- Casamayor happened recently and was a billion times worse, let alone worst of all time.

    Overreacting a tad bit. It was a robbery, yes. But of all time? Come on now.

    Yes, a close fight being called a draw, what an awful "robbery".

    wow you are so predictable, you claim it was a close fight, giving no evidence on why it was close. Also like I said you would not even attempt to debate the standard judging criteria that I listed, to somehow justify your claim that the "fight was close" Yep it must be close because you say it is, even though you can't argue the listed points (nor give your own) that show it was not only not close, but a robbery.

    Pascal knocked Hopkins down twice. Won the first 5 rounds. May have even had a look in to win the 12th. Coulda gone either way, robbery it was not.

    This must be your first time watching a boxing match. All-time? Nah, it wasn't even the biggest robbery of the night much less all-time.

    Not even in this year's top 5, let alone the biggest of all time! :nut
    The biggest robbery this year was Shumenov vs Campillo II in my opinion, and this one doesn't even come close!
    The biggest robbery that ended in a draw was Lewis vs Holyfield I imo.
