    It was one of the middle rounds, I think fifth. He was going to pull a Cintron but he stopped just short. Anyone else notice this?

    He definitely let himself go a bit, but I don't think he was planning on it. That **** could break your neck if you don't land right.

    as this was happening i said "oh hell naw" cause i honestly thought he was going to launch himself through the ropes. i believe he stopped short because he felt he was winning the fight at that point.

    Chad Dawson should just stop grabbing people around the back of their legs.

    yeah, that's it. The guy with the long history of disgraceful ring behavior was flung 20 feet because a guy's glove brushed behind his leg.

    I do think Hopkins milked it abit but we've seen Chad do this grab behind legs move before, its a bad habit and a foul.

    Oh come on. Chad was the one who got Hopkins off balance and it´s not like Hopkins actually jumped through the ropes.

    I saw it. You could just see it going thru his con man brain for a split second that if he went over the ropes he might be able to get out of the fight and win on a foul

    Lol I was thinking Hopkins might injure Dawson somehow. . . If Dawson would have upped hte tempo more, and actually started making Hopkins look real bad, he would have injured Chad!
