ZZZZZZZZZ-ZZZZZZZZZ Hopkins

 

yeah same as me.

i had em sharing rds.

but gave hops 5 and 6 to edge him ahead.

5-4 hops after 9 rds.

then the last 3 for hops.

116-112. :bbb

 

118-113 Hopkins - I had 3 rounds even.

 

115-113 for hopkins. winky shouldn't have took this fight, the extra weight made him look dead tired in the last 3 or 4 rounds.

 

116-112 Hopkins

 

I had it a draw. I think a lot of the reasoning behind saying Hopkins won clearly, is how strong he finished. If you watch the first 9 rounds, Wright clearly wins at least 5. Sadly, he got destroyed towards the end, and I think that effected judges scoring cards.

Judges are too fickle. It's like Leonard finishing each round strong aghainst Hagler and winning, despite being the inferior man for 2:00. Wright won 6 rounds, but because he finished poorly, Hopkisn got the easy win.

If I had to choose a winner though, I'd go with Hopkins, but I honestly think it was 6-6. Too many of the rounds Hopkins won were indecisive.

 

exactly!!!!!!!!!!!!! :good:good

 

116 112 Hop

 

116-112 B-Hop. I could have seen it scored a little closer, however, depending on what the judge was looking for. It was pretty ugly.

 

116-112 for B-Hop.

And for those of you saying that the fight was boring....come on. It was more exciting than I expected, and I was pleased as punch with the card as a whole. The two undercard fights were awesome. If you're bitching about how boring the main event was, why did you buy it and what the **** did you expect?
​

 

116-113 B-Hop.Not exciting but better than was expected.:good

 

Not really. I've seen plenty of 8-4 scores. Since many of the rounds were closely fought a 9-3 card isn't out of the question. Did you think that Winky won 5 rounds indisputably in a manner beyond argument? If not, then a few close rounds going the other way isn't that out of the ordinary.

What up with Lederman?

 

If there was a clear round that Winky won, I'd like to hear which one so that I can go back and rewatch the round.....


I'll say without hesitation that in a match that did'nt have a single round clearly dominated by either fighter, Bernard Hopkins was doing all the intangibles to merit him deserving each round.

Thats right, my scorecard had Hopkins sweeping every round.
I was wondering in beffudlement on how Harold Lederman and the HBO crew were broadcasting a close contest.

In boxing, as long as the fight is somewhat competitive, a judge will usually give out a few pity rounds.
I did'nt do that and had a 120-108 score.


Hopkins did one major thing to neutralize Winky, and that is that he took away his best weapon, the jab.
Hopkins backed away and lateraled around Winky to avoid Winky establishing that jab.
When Hopkins commited to punch, he let loose, and tied up in close.
When up in close, Hopkins would win the battle of getting in shots with the loose hand.

Rarely did either fighter land clearly and cleanly, but I could probably count in one hand the clear clean shots landed by Winky in the fight.
Hopkins was avoiding or finding a way to smother just about every shot Winky threw....
Winky was lost, he was pawing out the jab as if he was in a pitch dark room tring to find his way out to light.......
.......in the process, Hopkins would pot shot with the right hand, and find cracks up close to sneak and land some good hard shots to both Winky's head and body.

I knew from that start that it would be one of those fights that I'd have to pay extra attention to score......and I did, and scored it 12-0 Bernard Hopkins.

I know I'll get some flak for a shoutout score, but tell me which round Winky clearly won so that I can go back and watch that or those particular rounds?

I'll state once again, I score each round individually and dont give out pity rounds!!!
