    "Close rounds should always be given to the champion"

    Not true in my book. I don't care who you are, champion or not has to EARN rounds.

    All american again but let me say this quote is epic:

    Merchand say: ''Bernard usually the champion as the benefit of the doubt in a close fight...''

    Hopkins take over: ''But I'm fourty''

    What?? More excuses pls?? I never heard in my life Chelios in a Stanley cup Final, let me play I'M OVER 45 YEARS OLD!!!!

    Hopkins I love what you did, but how about getting some credit for the first in 15 years who exposed your chin? Say his name, Jean Pascal

    I have to say, can't wait for rematch against the 45 years old and maybe new rules, because let's be honest, it's not fair, he's 45 YEARS OLD!!! Oh and I forget, he against the whole Canada. Because, when we apply the rules like all american fight, it's not fair.

    Yes but the rule does not count when a young champion faces an ATG. Neither does teh rule count when the champion is running and holding too much. And besides, I dont' see any close rounds from round 5 on.

    not totally to the champion...its either his or a draw..let the
    other fellow be credited for his efforts though it may not be
    enough to earn him the belt..unless there will be a 13 round
    then its mighty clear who has the edge:hi:

    And the same concept has applied to the champion historically. You have to actually beat the champ to take his belt, not tie him.

    I totally agree. Hopkins is one of the greatest fighters ever, obviously, but as a human being is just a whiny and obnoxious *****.

    Yep. That asian guy is my favorite on youtube. He's better than Dwyer, IMO.

    I watched the fight and had it the same as Tarver, 112-114 for Pascal. Hopkins is a sore loser! Did Hopkins use roids?! Ask Void about that one.

    Hopkins got robbed. Those body shots hurt, they got the lightheavyweight champion running and holding on.

    It was terrible how PAscale was still holding on in the 12th round, unworthy of a true champion. He did not want to fight, he just wanted to survive. Everybody who knows boxing understands this.

    Even James Toney who dislikes Hopkins, stated : Bernard won that fight.

    No disrespect to the guy but he cant even speak English properly so I think he gets his words all mixed up. He says some real foolish things.
