I have to give Oscar alot of respect for not being a bitch tonight like alot of peeople suspected and fighting Hopkins. He kept coming forward with flurries and was not intimidated at all.
Its great to see that and I like Oscar so much more for doing that. He was sportsmanlike after the fight and he knew he got caught. It wasnt a mistkae by DLH getting caught with that punch it was just an amazingly timed punch by Hopkins.
Props to Oscar

sorry maybe im the only one that saw oscar go out like biaitch!!!!
What's a 'real' KO? Ref count's to 10 and that'll do.
If the fighter isn't getting up or look like he has no chance of getting up (which DLH didn't) at 10 then i'd say that's a 'real' enough KO
All the props in the world for Oscar. He stood his ground. It was wierd seing Oscar scream in pain like that lol. Perfect liver shot. It did look slow but I dunno Hopkins' punch never looked devestating but they sure are strong.
All boxers say the body shot you DONT SEE is the one that kills ya. DLH did not see that punch comin at all.
I'm also very hapopy that DLH didnt use the hand as an excuse because beefore the fight HBO built it up so that he could use it if he wanted to.
im a big dlh fan and im a hopkins. i wasnt happy when this fight was on cuz i knew hopkins was gonna win becuz hes to big and too strong. but a ton of credit to dlh 4 trying to do the impossible and a ton of credit to hopkins 4 beating up on lil guys. hopkins vs tarver now bernard lets see how u like it
Actually I thought Oscar was looking for a way out....his corner's advice seemed to suddenly shift gears. The bodyshot looked a little suspect to me but maybe he was caught at some vulnerable nexus in his respiratory cycle. I think that Tito gutted it out and made much more of a real fight of it. I thought that the judging might be off on a distance decision and only put 2 dimes on Hopkins via KO and won 3200.
Of Course DLH deserves respect. The guy started his por career at 130 and now he took on one of the 4 greates middleweights who ever lived. There is no shame in losing to Bernard Hopkins.
:) I agree whole-heartedly
I agree, and about the body shot, I've seen Ward drop guys with hooks that looked slow to me, but they dropped, matbe he got caught when he was taking a breath or something, they said he didn't see it coming, probably wasn't tense, it happens, ya know?

What I was most impressed with was the fact that Oscar did not use the cut on his hand or the fact that he was the smaller guy as an excuse. In boxing that is a rare thing these days- in that alone Oscar earned alot of my respect.

More Real
Look man u need to chill out. More real, u cant teach me shit about being real. I have fought my way up my whole life, And to throw your weight around hear like i care. Fine if u dont like the fight but dont cry about it.
I seriously doubt DLH went down from a slow, weak body shot, especially from Hopkins... And as far as body shots not taking people down or whatever you mentioned "bigsmoothh", ever seen any Ricky Hatton fights??? His shots and placement are brutal... Well placed body shots will leave ppl in agony...
i know exactly what you mean "ebrady" ive had the chance to take a couple. the dlh liver shot looked too slow for me though, but thats just my opinion. i wanted hopkins to win by a real ko. peace.
Weak Body Shot???

Look big mouth dlh fought a great fight and was crouching when he was hit with that punch. He has been hit hard before and never gone down it just hit him right and by a very strong puncher. U say u have been boxing since u are 13 than u are either full of shit or just ranting about nothing. I am an amatuer boxer and i have no yet lost but i know what it feels like to take a shot under the ribs. No one cares about your whinning everyone else paid the same amount and i personally thought it was a great (tactical) fight up until the end. If u think all fights are just brawls and big power shots u are not a boxer. (at least not a real one)
i decide who ever i am. AND GET MY NAME RIGHT YOU JIGGAMUMBILIN BASTARD. you are NOBODY to come to me with yor mediocre insults. save em for somebody who cares. im more real than youll ever be in your whole life. if you think this fight was "awesome" fuck you.
DLh

I DONT HAVE TO ASK VIRGIL NOTHING PACO. look man understand dlh wasnt caught or nothing like that. funny thing he had the chance to move his upper body and then get up and walk straight. AND TO TOP THINGS OFF MY UNCLE WANTED ME TO GO WITH HIM TO SEE IT LIVE.
Yeah and I'm pretty sure you've never fought anybody like Bernard Hopkins. That punch was precisely landed in a spot that freezes your legs up. Doctors say your legs actually go paralyed for 10-20 seconds. It is said to be one of the worst pains ever.
If you dont believe me ask Virgil Hill hahahaha
