              I thought the same thing watching this fight. It looked to me that Hopkins landed harder body shots then the one that eventually took DLH down. Who knows maybe Hops earlier body blows wore DLH down. But it did pretty shady that they became business partners after the fight.

                Please guys open your eyes. Im not a conspiracy guy that thinks every fights is fixed. Honestly I think boxing is way less fixed that it was back in the time. However, if you think that no fight at all are fixed today, you're totally naive.

                This fight was acting, acting and acting again. Im not just talking about the ko, some of you guys has clearly not watched the whole fight. Almost every round BHop and DLH landed about 10 punches... jab included, there's many times you can tell without a doubt they are throwing their punches at the arms of the other fighters. There was not a single meaningfull punch in all the ****ing fight. They were putting no weight in their punches at all.

                That was fake as hell, terrible fight

                    Between some rounds, HBO didn't even show the classic slow motion punch of the round because there was no significant punch at all. Also pay attention to the end of the each rounds, they throw flurries everywhere around each other and never land, that was ridiculous.

                      I've never thought that DLH took a dive. However I've always believed that Hopkins carried in the early rounds. He could have shutdown Oscar from the opening bell if he wanted to.
