    Kellerman getting out of line here, fair to ask why he can't talk to the ref, but he's blatantly ignoring Hopkins' history of questionable reactions, bizarre scenes, endless headbutting and wrestling tactics, and siding against the far more honest boxer in Chad.

    I'm a huge Hopkins fan, but this is not a surprise. He just got paid with no damage. Dawson just shrugged him off, which is what boxers do all the time. He didn't literally pick him up & bodyslam him like some posters are implying.

    Different circumstance, different officials making the call. :conf

    Honestly, it should have been Williams TKO4 Cintron though. It was Cintron who was unable to continue despite the fact that there was no foul. That should always be ruled a TKO, and there was no need to go to the cards there.

    Hopkins took a gamble and it didn't pay off.

    It was not ruled a self induced injury. It was ruled accidental foul (like a cut caused by a head-butt) and in California the fight went to the scorecards because three rounds were complete.

    This was obviously not ruled an accidental foul.

    **** bernard. his ass hit the canvas first before his shoulder.. so basically it lessens the impact and I don't think he got injured with that

    That is reasonable. Make Bernard wait and year until he is 47 almost 48.

    Hey IB, if this gets changed to a NC, I expect to be paid on my 200 vcash on a draw.
    Many thanks.

    Chad Dawson is a disgrace. No rematch. Smh. Bhop #1 still. I am very disappointed. Hope to see Bhop again. He would and will win a rematch.
