what happened is hopkins just beat out Dirrell for this year's academy awards (more like Razzie) nominations.
Hopkins deliberately and obviously hit roy with low blows but when Ref wasn't looking so he didnt' get caught. Then Hopkins gets hit in the back of the head and he falls down and starts crying and acting unconscious and rolls around on the floor. Roy is deducted a point and the fight is delayed for like 5 minutes...they fight on afterwards. Hopkins a bit later hits Roy obviously on the back of the head, Roy retaliates and hits him back on the back of the head again Hopkins falls down and acts unconscious, fight delayed again for 5 minutes and ref is warning to DQ Jones. Hopkins also then slugs it out with Roy after the bell and the benches clear so to speak security rushes the ring and basically teh fight stops for a while cus they both brawl after the bell.
Fight continues, Hopkin later gets hit in the balls with a low blow, he falls again and stops the fight again for another good 5 minutes while he rolls around acting like he's dying.
In between all this entertaining **** they mostly hugged each other and maybe 1 or 2 clean punches landed in the entire fight but Hopkins clearly outclassed Jones only because he outworked him and Jones barely ever threw anything. This was no surprise as danny green predicted "Jones will be gun shy after I knocked him out"
so basically Hopkins didn't "dominate" Jones but he clearly outworked him.
