Comments Thread For: Dawson-Hopkins Declared A No-Contest By CSAC

[*2TOUGH*]

He didn't throw him down. He shrugged him off. Hopkins deliberately draped himself completely over Dawson's back, to push him down, afavourite Hopkins trick, and in straightening up, Dawson shrugged him off. A natural thing to do.

Hopkins never showed anyone a medical report saying that an MRI had shown a dislocation or fracture, or whatever the hell he was claiming. A separation cannot be seen by Xray, it is a very minor injury with, medically speaking, 6 different degrees of severity. Hopkins' may have had an A1. LOOK IT UP...... Many fighters fight completely through separation injuries.

In fact, I've seen thousands of fights and don't recall a single one ever being called because of what turned out to have been a "separation".

we are not questioning his HEART but the FACTS... so what if danny williams fought with 1 arm and the dislocation was worse. If hopkins did that and got knocked out how would he feel?

the FACT is, DAWSON threw him with a shoulder/back toss and Hopkins was injuryed and chose not to fight on. The FACT is 5-1 said that the move Dawson did was illegal and the FACT is Hopkins is the champ.

How it should have been called originally, regardless of who was at fault.
