If B-HOP had done this...

Taylor won the second no doubts. He maybe just pipped the first too. Although I admit Hopkins would have likely won under any other scoring system. The problem with people like you is that you just presume the Mercado fight was a bad decision. Why? Because it's actually YOU that haven't seen it. :good

Another problem with you is that because you haven't seen the fight you want to believe other people haven't. Unfortunately, for you, I'm not one of them. I'll PM you a site that sells it if you want, only cost you a few quid. I thought Mercado won. Bias you will say, but you'll be talking **** as Boxing News had Mercado the winner and The Ring (who are never biased to Yanks...ahem) wrote that Hopkins was "Lucky to get a draw". Understand? The promotion was put together by Don King and Butch Lewis. King manufactured one of his infamous draws, hence the rematch. Hopkins was badly shaken on one of the knockdowns- did the home crowd influence that too?

 

NONE of his draws came in his hometown. In fact most came in the OTHER GUYS hometown. The only one you could categorise as a 'homer' was the Briscoe draw. Ha ha, you're on a roll here squire. :good


"Some in his favour" says who?*



* And believe me when i tell you I have more material on Monzon that probably anyone on ESB. So I await this source.

 

Roy Dale wasn't a title defence. Wow, you're really unstoppable today. Must be a big fan, eh? :yep
