Comments Thread For: Hopkins is Released From The Hospital, Injury update

[Walt Liquor]

I don't think he wanted to quit. I think initially he wanted to get a point deducted but when it didn't happen he expected a NC or DQ. I don't remember Kellerman saying he quit I only saw the interview. Did he actually say he thought Hopkins quit?

No, but bluffing to get points or a short breather has nothing tp do with what happened last night. Thats not the way you answer question to the ringside doctor if you're just trying to get a point.

if it "went back into place" then it wouldn't have shown up on the x-ray as a separated shoulder!



look at that x-ray image! it clearly would show up for a dr. to diagnose it as an AC Separation. . . google images. . . thanks! :waves: /THREAD

No where has it been stated that the x-ray showed a separation. And if you're going to post pictures of x-rays at least know what you're looking at.

To be honest I never heard what was said to the doctor or ref when it was actually happening, the only thing there is to go by is the post fight interview which i take with a grain of salt because he was angry and in shock over the decision. If you actually heard parts of the conversation with the ref or doctor then I'd be interested to know what was being said.

You people seem to think I have a personal reason to be doubting Hopkins which isn't true. I actually have a lot more reason to support him than most of this board and I used to a long time ago until I finally got tired of his cheating.

So he cheated by deliberately dislocating his shoulder?

Cool story bro..

He didn't dislocate his shoulder he supposedly had an ac joint separation which is different. If he'd dislocated his shoulder it would've been popped back in while he was in the ring or he would've left right away to get it fixed in the dressing room. No way they would've just left him there to do an interview.

First off, he never quit. The doctor said do you want to keep fighting. He said yea, with one arm, doc called it cuz he only could use one a. No one ever told him he was catching an l if they call the fight.


All the evidence points toward a legit injury. On the flipside of your argument. No one ever said the xray didnt show separation.

You just don't get it do you? Tell me, do you think a dislocated shoulder, which is much worse, will show up on an x-ray if it's been popped back in?

Uh. Um. The ligaments will be torn to allow the separation

and those will be found in an MRI.

Thank you for proving my point. It will show in an MRI not an x-ray. But as you can see on the report it says closed with 5mg of vicodin as the solution, so I doubt he'll be getting an MRI though I'd like to see the results if he did because it was quite an acting job on his part.

I don't believe Hopkins. You know why? Because he *****es and complains over every little thing. It's the boy who cried wolf. If this dude is going to fall down and act like the world is over after he gets low blowed then how am I suppose to believe when he's really hurt?
