Comments Thread For: Gary Shaw Fires Back at Bernard Hopkins, Allan Green

[Mr. Invincible]

If you think selling 300K PPVs when you are the peak of your career and #1 P4P is being a draw, then you are setting the standards really low my friend.

Go check out his PPV numbers in the Ruiz fight.

The other PPV's at his peak were not that great because he was a one man show and people knew they would simply see a one sided ass whippin'. The Toney and Hopkins fights simply came at the wrong time to have huge PPV numbers. Simple stuff really. Roy was P4P#1 for the better part of a decade and was a very big deal and a draw moreso than anyone else but Tito and Delahoya as far as fighters south of the heavyweight line go.

I went into this fight nuetral and came out a Direll fan. Why on earth should a guy have to continue after taking a murderous illegal punch???????????

After Gray asked Dirrell “what happened, “ Dirrelll looked at him dumbfounded , and said “ I got dropped.” Check the interview, in my mind, his reaction coupled with the fact that he had been whipping ass, proves that he was hurt. Dude had no reason to act… if anything he looked pissed off he could not finish him off for the hometown fans.

I had Arthur in this fight and to take the whole thing…not sure anymore. Dirrell is undefeated in this tourney.

Hopkins is 100% about Dawson.

Props to Jones and Hops for selling 800 tickets. About 750 more than i expected.

[ShoulderRoll]

Only 800 tickets sold? Damn.

If true then Shaw just owned B-Hop.

Doesn't sound good, but all that really matters is the final count for the live gate and the PPV.

I don't understand why Hopkins would still target David Haye when it's likely he's gonna have to fight Valuev in a rematch so Shaw has a point about that. Hopkins needs to frigging man up and give Dawson the shot that he deserves.

You are exaggerating the punch, as Allan Green said Dirrell took harder punches during the course of the fight.

Gary Shaw is a liar though, Dirrell was talking to the showtime announcers before being rushed to the hospital. Well, he talked to them for a little bit... I saw no urgency for them to get Dirrell to a hospital which in some ways is pretty sick.

Why is Gary Shaw always constantly lying though? What urgency did you guys see to get Dirrell to a Hospital? I saw none, when he got up the first thing that Showtime tried to do was get an interview with a man who was supposedly brutally KO'd.

ok, so what your saying is that during the time they were trying to get an interview Dirrell was faking it when he thought he lost the fight by KO?
