I just dont trust him after all the stuff he has pulled...i think he was faking it and it went too far for him to back out and now he lost his title. also i think he would help his case if he released a certified medical report.
the medical reports proved he did have an injury. whether or not he could have continued with an injured arm is up for debate, regardless, should be a No Contest quite clearly.
The medical report only proves that Hopkins told the doctor he landed on his shoulder and it hurts. There was no physical damage and doctors make this diagnosis all the time based on patient claims. The only way to prove the injury is by getting an MRI. And even if it did slip out and in, he could've definitely continued cause it's only painful the moment it's out.
I dont think he was faking and on paper it should be a NC but the ref did a good job of sending a messege out to people like Kermit, jump on the floor you'll lose.
Hopkins don't want a rematch. He never wanted this fight. He would have lost every single round to Dawson. No rematch will happen which is absurd considering Hopkins just lost his belt lol. This goes to show how badly Hopkins fears Dawson.
It should be a no contest hopefully it get's overruled but a rematch should happen on HBO but I doubt that happens they spent a lot of money for the first fight so I don't think that it will happen boy em I glad I didn't buy this fight but I did watch it the undercard was cool I missed the the knockout by demarko I was taking a pis **** blame on the alcohol.

This. :boxing:
I didnt see the fight.
Was the injury caused by an accident? if so it should be a no contest.
If the injury was caused by Dawson's legal aggression then it should be TKO Win for Dawson.
It was caused by a defensive move by Dawson, in shrugging off Hopkins, who had draped himself all over the stooped Dawson and pressed him down. The ref said there was NO foul.
He asked Hopkins was he ready to continue, and Hopkins said "yea with only one arm" a positive sarcasm. The ref said you can't continue with one arm and therefore awarded a TKO against Hopkins.

go watch the fight on youtube. bernard is such a devious character i dont believe him. jean pascal fought with a seperated shoulder for over 8 rounds in the rematch with diaconu.
Although medical reports were produced I am not sure about the authenticity. Goldenboy can easily pay off a doctor to write those up.
I'm not usually much of a conspiracy theorist but after last night Hopkins is really bringing out the skeptic in me.
yeah they could pay off some quack to say whatever they want him to say. hopkins wanted a point deduction advantage and it went too far

Pretty much this.
I think he was looking for a point deduction and it spiraled out of control but who knows.
