It wasnt scored a KD because it was a push after Hopkins swarmed him and jumped on his back, Very similar to the ending actually but in the ending Dawson wasnt taking Hopkins *****

He may have pushed abit but he landed clean before the glove touched the canvas.

It was'nt scored a KD but it was. Dawson also hooks Hopkins leg and dumps him it's not just a shove off. I've watched it in HD over and over.

quit bull****ing, he hit Dawson's arm, than he grabbed Dawson's arm and started roughing him up.

Yea a little punch landed but the push is what caused his glove to touch the canvas.

If there was no push there would be no KD, meaning the push caused the KD

Some refs would have called it a knockdown when Chads glove touched down. Its debatableHowever I dont know any other ref who would have ruled a shoulder push a TKO. That ref should never be seen again.

No ref would call that a knockdown, it's clear as day that before Dawson's glove touch the canvas, Hopkins was groping all over him.
