    agreed..this I totally agree with.

      aye, if it doesnt get changed to a no contest and a rematch ordered i'll be pretty disappointed

            He didn't want out because he was losing, he wanted out because it's easier to win in 2 rounds than over 12.

            He faked it, you know how I know? he grimaces and pretends he's in pain before he even hit the ground.

            Shameless.

              True, but you do have to look at it from his point of view. Pure emotion was running through his veins at the time(Dawson). He just won a belt that he probably feels he didn't deserve due to a controversial tko. In my opinion I believe anybody, even the coolest of heads, would have been pissed off. I know I would have been. The only thing that makes me mad is that Dawson wanted no rematch. The fight went two rounds and he doesn't want a rematch??? Makes no sense.
              Yeah it doesnt make sense about no rematch..
