Both camps screams no rematch,did we just get 1 pulled over on up?Hopkins loses his belt without losing,Dawson wins without winning,both get a huge payday,while the fans get fukked over.This is getting ridiculous,1st the Floyd fight now this crap??its getting disgusting man
floyd did nothing wrong im talking bout the sh1t ortiz pulled
:lol1: So full of crap. You were trying to sound moderate by taking a shot at Floyd until someone pointed out that you glorified his act by making a sig of it.
What did Ortiz do? Heabutt someone? We see that all the damn time. And what did Floyd do? Sucker punch someone? Yeah, pretty sure that's what you were referring to.
Posted this in another thread, but it applies here :
Chad was manipulated like a child by Hopkins into totally losing his composure and is 100% at fault here. The TKO decision was ridiculous and idiotic. And how hinky was it the way they spirited the offending ref out of the arena so quickly? When have you seen that in a controversial decision? Never. The call was bad and they know it. It'll be overturned.
As for Hopkin's performance, anybody thinking the fight wouldn't be an ugly, clinching, sneaky foulfest was indulging in the same make believe that Chad succumbed to.
The drama was never gonna' be in the brawl or artful boxing. We were paying for the undercard and to be live viewing when the question of whether B-Hop could postpone the inevitable yet again was answered. It was. He did.
Larry I thought you where one of the biggest defenders of what Floyd did that night, in fact it's in your sig.
Anyway, yes it's goddamn ridiculous right now. We can't catch a break in boxing at the moment. I still have hope for Pacquiao/Marquez to give us a great show with no controversy.

Who the **** pays for a Hopkins fight?not any fans of B Hop them foolz all look for the illegal live stream, they also do the same **** when Floyd fights, yet want to argue Floyds a draw...

If George Foreman was here, he would be on the conspiracy bandwagon. lol
random funny line by Foreman:
Foreman: 'I don't care if hes 6 '12, wait can somebody be 6 '12?' lol
Actually Foreman basicly said its hopkins fault.. he stated you live by the sword you die by the sword.

Dont mean to jump in this convo,but that doesn't look like 10
As for this thread i agree,something just isn't right about this past Saturday
Even though thats not ten I am sure that what he posted was six more fighters you couldnt figure out off the top of your head and I am sure that Larry doesnt know **** about most of those guys.
Bernabe Concepcion
Brian Viloria
Nonito Donaire
Manny pacquiao
Marvin Sonsona
Rodel Mayol
Donnie Nietes
Jimrex Jaca
Rey Batista

You forgot Lusito Espinosa and Gesta...
The sad part is that Dawson came to fight and was dominating, So the dirty old fighter started wrestleling when He saw He couldn't win boxing. Does some laim acting and pays a Doc to back up his BS story, gets his title back and more big fight money again on a rematch HE DOESN'T DESERVE.
Dawson, the WBC and the fans get played by an old dirty fighter. I like the story today better.
BOY STOP..new to the sport???been a hopkins fan for over a decade
I didn't say I was talkin to you. I meant Hopkins fans in general. If there even is such a thing as Hopkins fans. Anybody who followed boxing in the 2000s loathes B-Hop.
I love how everybody is surprised that Bernard Hopkins ripped off the fans. When has Hopkins ever done anything for the fans? His style is miserable, he avoided big matchups that people screamed for (Roy rematch and Toney) and kept fighting bums of the month for a long time.
You are his fans because you're too new to boxing to know anything about the guy. You just see that he's 46 and say THAT'S COOL, HE'S OLD AND STILL WINNING! I'M A FAN!

Boxing matches are won by punches...not headbutts and body slams
Boxing matches are supposed to be fought with in the rules of the sport... dont expect me to feel sorry for Flopkins he quit the ****ing fight.. he was the one fouling he is the one who flopped and looked to win by DQ and it backfired... you live by the sword you die by it.
And thanks to fighters like Hopkins and Mayweather you can bet your ass PPV boxing is soon enough going to be a thing of the past.
****ed up thing is Floyalist who ignored the rules that were posted and discussed, are pissed off and talking rules regarding Hopkins.
Bottom line Hopkins quit, it was his own fouling that lead to him being on the floor. it was also his shoulder not his legs ankles or feet.. he wasnt hurt to the chin... he quit.
However I am noticing how suddenly you all want to follow the rules, I agree should be a no contest However the ref can look at it as if Hopkins took a Knee..

It makes no business sense to market this fight, unfortunately. Neither Dawson nor Hopkins are huge attractions, nor do their fighting styles excite. Dawson keeping his belts and ruling it an official TKO makes more sense since Dawson is young and will continue to do defend belts. It was Hopkins' way of going out on top and being able to say, "You know how I lost the belts? They took them from me? I never lost them legitimately."
That'll be where Hopkins will be able to hang the blame...
I'm a Hopkins fan but that's how it's going to be.
