THE RING Light-Heavy championship wont change hands.....yet

[Eaner0919]

they both landed a total of 5 punches....

Honestly I don't care what happens with the belts, either they go back to bernard or they can be vacant for all I care. All I know is there was no winner that night and it was a No Contest.

Sure, I understand people when they say they have no sympathy for bernard and the "cry wolf" thing came back to bite him in the butt. Understandable. But the injury has been proven. Whether or not he could have or should have continued is up for debate. Reminds me of Jay Cutler in the playoffs last year to an extent. Everyone trashed him for going out on an injury saying "oh he should have played, he was faking" only later it was proved he did have an injury. Sure, there were examples of other guys in the NFL playing with much worse injuries like a fractured leg or a missing finger, but not everyone is like that.

about as much as Dirrell's head "injury"

NATAS is just a big Hops fan, he's not that naive. I feel him. But I hate to say this but...I'm not buying the medical stuff. Been around this sport too long to be fooled by that.

Schaefer is one of the owners of Golden Boy. Hopkins is one of the owners of Golden Boy. Golden Boy owns Ring Magazine. So Schaefer and Hopkins decide to protest the verdict, and Ring Magazine decides not to recognize the winner yet?

When Mike Tyson and Don King protested Tyson's loss to Douglas -- saying Douglas was down for longer than 10 seconds before Tyson got stopped -- and the WBC and WBA withheld naming Douglas the champ until their committees could review the tapes, Ring Magazine said it was the referee's call and the WBC and WBA were in King's pocket.

But when two of the guys who own Ring want the decision changed, suddenly it's not the referee's call anymore.

Look how far Ring has sunk.

I did some research asked a few people who have worked in hospitals for years and my rememberance from going to that very hospital for my lil girl

what Rafael tweeted a pic of is um, not really much to do about anything. From what I remember what I have been told that sheet is just an initial diagnosis based on what the customer is telling the doctor. Now it can either stop there if the doctor deems it can be remedied with some meds or it can go deeper. From there you will get an actual readout of all the tests performed to correctly diagnose what is wrong. My lil girl had that sheet then an actual readout of every test they did on her (scary times) that was pages long

Why am I not surprised? And that pic showed us nothing except for a broken old man. Kinda sad.

well, hopkins doctor actually exists you can find him numerous places online whereas dirrell's doctor doesn't exist.

5 punches is better than 1 or 2 that Hopkins landed, even worse is that he was backtracking for most of the fight.

Here are the punchstats for you

http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/view.php?pg=hopkins-dawson-compubox

Hopkins landed 11 punches (10 which were powershots) to Dawsons 7 (4 which were powershots).
I personally thought rd 2 was a Hopkins rd. It was a slow pace and he was landing. Dawson landed a big left hook in that rd, but the rest of the rd was controlled by BHop. No one knows what the outcome would have been, but BHop was in the fight.
