    It was a lift followed by a shrug to be exact. But the lift was just him posturing up from a duck position with Hop leaning on him.

      Enjoy............cant wait for the rematch. I wonder if they're gonna keep some of chad's purse when they overrule. I think it would be appropriate. Bhop was in his head by rd 2.

        It was a blatant foul imo.
        Whatever it was, it sure wasn't legal.

        Besides, It's official now anyway, Hopkins was injured.

        end of story.

        As for bad for Boxing? lol, you kidding me?

        Boxing has been a joke for many many years now.

        Guys like Hopkins and his feats like beating Pascal, to become the oldest champion is what gets boxing fans.

            Dawson is a sorry excuse of a fighter..

            I'm a Bhop fan and have no problems with Dawson until last night..without knowing whether Hopkins was injured or not..Dawson acted like a total dumbass after the fight..I know he was upset but he'll he should have at least had some courtesy after the fight..so after that display I no longer have any respect for Dawson..he's nothing more than a punk..and don't say Bhop wanted out that's ******, nothing had even happened yet for him to want out..**** if he was getting pummeled maybe but he wasn't.

              It should be a no contest and I hope the decision is changed. He doesn't deserve to have that stoppage on his resume.

                Yeah, because Hopkins is always pure class. Dawson was pissed off, he should be pissed off.

                  Can't blame him, Hopkins' been trying to push Dawson down to the ground all night in the fight. How can somebody be called a fighter when you get hurt from a simple nudge?

                    I'd definitely be shocked if it wasn't. Less clear cases where a fight should be overturned have been overturned, this is pretty much obvious.

                      You dont respect Dawson but you respect a racist, wannabe gangster, trashtalker like Hopkins?

                      Hopkins is 46 years old he should act like a better rolemodel for African Americans and ******s.
