          Was a perfect Liver shot you cannot get up. Ive taken a few kicks to the liver and your legs just give out and it really hurts to breathe.

            Wierd but I watched a video of the fight the week after Hopkins beat Pavlik. Hopkins seemed to me to be dominating the ninth round before the KO blow but I thought that it was fairly even till then, Oscar got some nice shots off but seemed to be struggling with the range a touch.

            I thought Felix Sturm dealt out more punishment on Oscar over 9 rounds than Hopkins mind.

                No way, up to that fight neither fighter had been stopped, who'd agree to that when legacys are at stake?

                  Oscars no dummy. He knew had he gotten up, a Tito like beating was on its way.

                    What was really impressive in Hopkins fight against Oscar was not that he stopped Oscar, but how he fought him.

                    I mean if Hopkins would, he probably could have stepped on the gas pedal and forced the fight, with his strenght and size. He could take some shots, and pressed Oscar much more.

                    Instead what i say was that Hopkins proved even at 39 he could match Oscars speed and skills, not jumped on him using his power and size on him.

                    But Hopkins took away what most people thought was Oscars only advantage in the fight, his speed.

                      Nah....ya think? I never really watched the entire fight. Was Hopkins in total control that fight?
