    i had it a draw also. I had Taylor up by one after the 11. Im not mad with decision, it could have gone anu way.

    Both fights could have gone either way.

    The reason Hopkins looked like he won the 1st fight was cause he gave Taylor a bad beating, but Taylor won a lot of rounds also, even if he barely touched Hopkins.

      very dissapointing 2 fights. i really though bernard was going to back up his words with a knockout. i thought he would go in with guns blazing he had nothing to lose plus he would have gaind much respect in the boxing world. if he had tryed to make it a war he would have cemented his legacy. dont get me wrong he did rein as champ for a very long time but he only fought a hurt trinidad and a blown up oscar delahoya. i am unsure how i feel about his legacy now.does anyone agree or disagree with me

              This post seems a bit snivelly.

              Maybe your mom and dad can get the UFC and Pide PPV's for you ......... on your next birthday, your 10th.

No more paying PPV for boxing for me, I'm paying for MMA ppv instead. I'm just disgusted that's all.

                      wait, how was Trinidad hurt in his fight with Hopkins? I've watched that fight a couple of times and aside from him getting a beating, he looked very strong in that fight.
