British Joe fan, but he still lost!

[sparked_85]

Hopkins could have won if he had done anything in the last two rounds..........anything.

Calzaghe won by those two rounds.

[hugh grant]

Yeah JC won. He punched Hopkins more than Hopkins punched JC. If it was wrestling Hopkins would have the edge. He held JC more than JC held hopkins.

[sparked_85]

not to mention his antic in the late rounds made me throw up in my mouth.

If you scored it for Hopkins you'd do so with a heavy heart.

HaHA.. You should check my pulse rate and see my pupils when I watch these fights. Everything is in slow motion for me. My adrenaline is pumping.. I need to ease off a little bit or my health will start to decline. I haven't touched a drink in 6 months myself.. I'm dangerously sober these days.

Yeah, that's about right, Mace. The majority of media professionals sitting ringside - outside of HBO's favorite judges/usual suspects - scored it in favor of Hopkins. This fight wasn't for the Olympic Trials. It was a pro fight.

Stop lying. It was not a majority.

Hopkins lost by five to seven points.

And Joe could have done more if he wanted

yep.......

hell i can see joe winning 11 rounds to be honest....i gave him 10 though...


teh ususal douchebags who think tehy're gods fo boxing are the ones who scored it for hopkins....dan "i had taylor beating pavlik 6-0 in the first fight" rafael, the "-edison miranda got robbed because there's a possiblity in the world that he won 9 rounds or more against abraham-club" like kevin iole....

i mean this guys are total douches......im expecting the other memebers of the my afvorite always wins like fischer, fernandez, kim had hopkins winning...

As is often the case, you were right first time on who won, instincts is usually right. I think we have the classic scenario of watching something back to check out peoples claims of the loser doing better than first thought.

As a result sometimes you mostly watch the opponent for what he's doing and come to a less balanced view. Oh, effective, counter punching, without taking it all in context and what both fighters are doing throughout, like you usually do on the first watch.

Joe was the more effective, post round 4 made it more his fight, less Hopkins, managed to land the most ever on him, and left Hops tired and confused, un able to hit much and just holding. Watch some of Hopkins other fights and you'll also come to a more balanced view, this is what Bernard does, well, but he couldn't do it enough to Joe.

The Associated Press, ESPN and Sports Illustrated

Sports Illustrated also said that the toughest sportsman in the world is Tiger Woods.

Giving him every round after the first would actually be very reasonable.

I'm not saying you had to give him all those rounds, but there were none that Hopkins clearly won. There were at least six that Joe clearly won

HaHA.. Stop lying. Stop lying.

From what I understand it IS the majority.

Why don't you do some research before you go spouting off again.

Do me a ****ing favor..
