    Also comes out to 114-113 Hopkins.

    Now you tell me who really deserved to win when Joe was on the receiving end of this all night . . .

    Not to mention, after a 12 round fight 'Nard had absolutely no marks on him. The same can not be said for Calslappy.

    Yet even the 'great' Dan Rafael wrote an article on Joe WINNING and hasn't cried robbery or anything else. If Dan can let it go, you should too.

    Horseswill.

    Hopkin's china abdomen was smashed to pieces and his anal passage was the thickness of his shorts away from brutal intrusion...

    I'll be honest, I thought it was even money until Bernard pulled a "***** move."

    Didn't BBC Radio 5 have Hopkins winning?

    It doesn't seem that Americans automatically support a guy just because he is American like we seem to here for Brits. They recognise that boxing is an individual sport and usually go for they guy they like (probably not Hopkins!). Usually a Brit commentator will give any close rounds to the British guy.

    Anyone who scores the bout for Hopkins is not watching the fight- only applying their own biases to the score. And I am an American. Get over it. Slaphappy Joe won the fight. Also, watching the fight it looks like Cortez is biased for Hopkins, too, which is messed up. Adelaide Spence should be fired. Great fight, though, by both fighters.
