    Dawson looked decidedly uncomfortable and rattled a few times is the point I'm making.

    The crowd cheered for Judah after his fight with Clottey but that didn't mean that Clottey didn't whup Judah's as-s and Johnson clearly lost the fight to Dawson.

    Hopefully hopkins ego will allow him to take the fight with Dawson.

    Dawson will retire hopkins for good!

    Huge difference in cheering for a fighter and booing a decision.

    As I said, I believe it was the correct decision, but to say he won handily and that he had no problems with Johnson at all...like this other guy did, is absolutely laughable.

    Fixed.




    The word 'handily' has no place in this discussion.

    Chad was almost out on his feet and scraped a very narrow and controversial victory.

    I scored the fight for Glenn, but the decision was reasonable.

    I think it's a fight Chad will learn from.


    I did note a clear disinclination on Chad's part, for a rematch, during the post-fight interview.

    I don't know how many fights like that Bernard has left in him. I think if he can get to Dawson's chin like Glen did he can finish him, but Dawson's workrate is going to cause him problems and tire him out.

    Bernard can beat anyone who can't make Bernard work harder than he wants to, Dawson throws a lot of punches. I would kind of like to see B-hops take on Roy if he feels he has to, then call it a day without ever taking a serious beating. I think he has more than enough to stop this version of Roy.

    it would be boring because whenever bhop fights speed guys he nullifies them by holding and potshotting just trying to keep it close

    WTF are you talking about???

    That poll shows that more than just myself and Johnson feel like it was a close fight. Can you even read? He posted that in retort of someone agreeing with you saying that Dawson won handily....

    And the results of the poll agreed (as well as most of the posters posting on the subject) that it WAS a close fight and THAT HE DID NOT WIN HANDILY!!!

    And on top of that....I SCORED THE FIGHT FOR DAWSON!!! But it was a CLOSE fight...one in which Dawson struggled at times.

    Why do I even waste my time...

    :patsch
