| Photos: Hopkins vs Dawson, The Controversial Ending
|
|
Staples Center, Los Angeles - Chad Dawson (31-1, 18KOs) stopped Bernard Hopkins (52-6-2, 32KOs) in the second round to capture the WBC light heavyweight title. During the second, Hopkins leaned over on Dawson, who used his shoulder to push him off. Hopkins went down near the ropes and told the referee, Pat Russell, that he suffered a shoulder injury and couldn't continue. Because there was no foul involved, Russell ruled the fight in favor of Dawson and made him the TKO winner. .jpg)

Are you saying freak injuries don't happen in the ring? Are you saying that torn ACL' in fighters knees have never happened, they stepped wrong, and couldn't continue because they could stand or move on it, not resulting from a punch or being hurt?!!? Hopkins hadn't been hit, gets lifted and drop... |

[QUOTE=OG Wenger]Really? Could you please show me some examples?[/QUOTE]
Not enough happened to say would win the fight, but with Dawson throwing him down and having his forearm in his face earlier in the round during a clinch, it appears he was ready for Hopkins' usual tactics. It's unfortuna... |
