    He cried to the ref every thirty seconds against Jones JR. His training must have been watching General hospital.

    Nah, I believe those were genuine.

    I mean, they just fell off a ring to the floor from like ten (I don't know how many exactly) feet to a concrete floor. Ouch!

    I came here to say the Williams/Cintron.

    He also faked a headbutt vs. Sergio which cost Sergio a win by KO.

    I always gave Hopkins the benefit of doubt with the Allen fight, but in the later part of his career when he became known for such tactics it made me wonder ...

    The Cintron jump was obvious, just watch it on slow mo, he bends at the knee and springs up and out of the ring. Shameful . I always liked Cintron too up until then

    Two that immediately jump to mind are Griffin vs Jones and Dirrell vs Froch?
