I don't take any issue with that. I might argue that Hopkins' injury resulted from a Hopkins foul, and thus an 'L' is warranted, but regardless...
You could see it coming. This was the focused and emotional version of Dawson who fought Adamek. Hopkins went into Calzaghe mode and was hoping...
Keep in mind that this was Hopkins' third foul of the fight already. Headbutt in the first round (which he was warned for) and the first tackle....
Buffer is an aging fellow and has had throat cancer. He doesn't have the cords he used to have but still has a great presentation. The green...
Oh, Jesus. :lol:
Yeah, that one was much more violent. Point being, you can't expect a guy to accept someone jumping on his back.
Either retire or match himself more carefully. He should avoid the kind of guys who compel him to embarrass himself, such as Dawson or Calzaghe....
Linares can't punch. Lesser fighters will get hit with speedy shots like Demarco did early and mail it in, but he refused to buckle and never was...
Thank you. I'd be inclined to give Hopkins the benefit of the doubt were he not famous for these sorts of tactics, along with the fact that he...
Yes, that's the bad version of Hopkins we all expected to show up last night. He was the same guy against Calzaghe, so this shouldn't have...
I disagree. Dawson ducked under Bhop's right hand (not an illegal move) and then Hopkins jumped on his back. It's not at all the same as the...
I think the obvious difference is that Dawson got tagged and hurt by Pascal and was holding on, while against Hopkins he'd just dodged a punch and...
Some of you guys have made reasonable points, and I guess we have to reevaluate the injury. But I think the point stands: Dawson was the...
There's no possible way to defend him. Feel terrible for Dawson, who looked great tonight in brief action.
Please God, no. Let Hopkins have his title back and move back to FNF. He's finished as an attraction. I think they'll reverse that decision...
