A missed punch is better than moving away from your opponent.

No it's not.

A missed punch is better than Ring Generalship / Defense?

[Peterp]

Neither fighter really deserved the win but you gotta give it to Joe for moving forward

I was so frustrated with Hopkins. If he increased his punchrate even by just 20% he would have won that fight. When he attacked Joe, he did fine

Freddie Roach deserves a kickin for not putting a rocket up Bhops behind
