    I scored both rounds for Hopkins. He was controlling the pace, landed the cleaner shots and landed more of them - the only thing of note from Chad was a combination on the ropes towards the end of round one. Worse for Chad Hopkins always gets better as fights progress.

    In my mind *if* Hopkins was acting he's got no one to blame but himself in this case.

    I also had Hopkins winning maybe you can score 1 round for Dawson but no way Dawson was dominating

    Hopkins was having problems , but no more than against Pascal first fight. Dawson was winning the first 2 rounds.

    It was to close to say either guy was winning but you could make a case for Hopkins winning the 2 rounds.

    Had it up 1-0 for Bhop. But Chad was leading the second before he showed his true colors. I guess people who had it 2-0 must be Bhop haters

    Very clear rounds for Dawson, especially the 1st.

    It isn't even that Dawson did anything particularly impressive - he just kept working the right jab while Hopkins did nothing (except dive in with a few missed shots and push down on him). Literally nothing.

    Landed more of them? :huh Dawson landed more right jabs (again, not even a whole lot) than Hopkins landed anything.
