http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BxDNgP4qZQ&feature=channel_page Young Hopkins was beastly, and this ref was a sadist. Forward to 6:30.
I've actually seen this happen before. It happened in a Kostya Tszyu fight once and according to Bobby Cyz, in that state you couldn't throw in the towel to stop the fight.
Hey, a rule is a rule, but when it comes to laws I'm more into spirit than letter. What makes me laugh is that Bernard sees the towel and doesn't even hesitate.
Damn never seen that, but I heard them saying something like that. But the ref acted like someone from the crowd threw some trash in the ring. luckily the ring doc stepped in cause hop was ready to pounce on him.
I hear ya man. I honestly think had the guy gone down again, Hopkins simply would've turned his attention to the ref...then the ring announcer...then BOTH corner teams....then the announcers.
Brutal! Hopkins... Hopkins. How often did announcers do that, or when did they stop? Ive never noticed before
A lot of non-Buffer commentators do it. I think it's just to put emphasis behind the name and make it more epic
**** as focused as he is I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't see it. He probably saw nothing but his opponent. Cracks me up how he has his whole crew dressed like S&M ***s though
LMAO wow that's crazy. Hopkins was just wailing away and the ref just throws the towel back. lol wow.
