WHO WON THE FIGHT IN YOUR BOOK - Hopkins / Wright

[squealpiggy]

Bernards favourite combination is a thumb in the eye followed by the other thumb in the other eye. Regardless, I had him winning 116 - 113 (the last round was even, a lot of noise was made but neither guy really landed). In fairness there were 9 close rounds which could have gone either way, but Hopkins won most of them through ring generalship and never really looking uncomfortable. Hopkins clearly controlled four of the first six rounds, Wright came back in the seventh and eighth but then seemed to gas a little and start just lunging in. I also thought that Winky's slapsy defense failed him in this fight.

Saw the fight this morning and had Hopkins winning 116-112.I thought the cleaner punches where landed by Bernard.

Lederman is an idiot, he's always wrong. I find myself disagreeing with him more then agreeing, the only fight he's called right lately was Williams vs Margarito, but he gave Tony the 10th round, so even in that he screwed up. How did he have Winky ahead by 2 rounds after 6?? Is he on crack?? The british announcers had Hopkins 5-1, I had Hopkins 5-1 or 4-2, to have Winky ahead you have to be delusional.

lol at not giving the 10th round to margarito
you really dont think he won that?

Winky Wright, but BARELY. When I say "barely" I truly mean it.

Hard fight to score, not a lot of clean, effective punches landed due to the subperb defense of both fighters, and probably partially due to bad offense...

Winky was doing great but then gassed out starting in the 10th.

there should be a "draw" option which i think would have been an appropriate decision for this fight
