    It was either Taylor won or a draw, there was no way that Hopkins won that fight.

      Judge Duane Ford single-handedly put an end to one of the greatest records in boxing history by giving the 12th round to Taylor instead of Hopkins who without a doubt won it. This judge is a farce and should be banned from judging forever. (His track record is VERY bad).

      As much as I don't like Hopkins as a fighter he definetly won that fight. Taylor took a couple notes from Leonard - Hagler. They both throw nice shoeshine shots, but Taylor barely landed anything that whole fight.

      The majority of the media and pressrow had Hopkins winning and I also scored the bout 115-113.

      The rematch I am definetly anticipating.

              I thought Taylor won the first fight 115-113, it was the right decision. Bernard shouldnt be blaming Duane Ford on his loss. Bernard was inactive for the first 6 rounds.

                It's nearly impossible to win a decision when you give 7 of the first 8 rounds

                    (doesnt raise hand)

                    when taylor looked like he knew he lost at the end in that fight, that was the ultimate sign that you knew that hopkins had won. if a fighter is defeated in his own mind, hes defeated in 99.9% of every other aspect in that fight.

                    and i dont approve of bitching about duane ford. but can u really blame the guy? hopkins won all 4 of the last 4 rounds and duane ford scoring the 12th for taylor is the only reason why taylor won.

                      I scored it 115 - 113 Taylor. The rounds Taylor won were quite clear at times. Bernard fought very lazy and just coasted the first 6 rounds. If Hopkins fights all the fight then i think he wins a dec. But if Hopkins fights like in the first fight, i bet Taylor wins by a bigger margin this time.
