It was a night that helped return boxing and sports fans to a sense of normalcy and that propelled Hopkins to a new level of superstardom.

      Saying Tito would have done better, possibly even beating Bernard? Really looked like he wasn't doing as well as he could have???

            Faking a prolonged beating then getting saved by your crying Papi is so, so common in boxing

              I'm just stating what's been said to me..I didn't come up with this, never heard from Tito or his camp, but people from the island said it's true, and that he was promised a rematch, but it never came about.

              Dives are common in Boxing according to this person who was a Pro himself, but I can't imagine being all that common at that level, who knows.

                  tito was paid off or drugged IMO. He never looked so bad before, and when has bhop ever had power?

                  Also another suspect fight with bhop is the ODLH ghost body shot

                    That's the sort of garbage you'd hear on a site that has degenerated like this one, with all the crazies and dimwits focussing in here.
