    but hopkins actually deserved to lose the belt IMO...

    you injure your shoulder on that weak ass "slam" you helped sell with a FLOP!?!?!?!?!?

    thats on YOU man....
    He said he was going to go on but the ref wouldn't let him. Dude dislocated his shoulder. What else you expect him to do? Hate it or love it, but Dawson did not deserve the belts. LOL what the fuck did he actually do besides an illegal move?

    he didn't fake an injury as soon as he realized his opponent wasn't fazed by dirty tactiics.

    im not celebrating dawson...

    but hopkins didnt come to fight...

    that was shaping up to be one of the dullest fights in history...

    it turned into one of the biggest embarrassments in fight history...

    hopkins tried to sell the slam and injured himself in the process...

    he SAYS he wouldve continued...

    ref asked "can you continue?"...

    hop said "yeah... one handed"...

    its a YES or NO...

    again...

    LOL @ that "slam" hurting a premiere athlete...

    glass shoulder?!!?!?!?!

    bernard can fight in his late 40's... but one fall and he's DUST?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?

    it was a horrible night for boxing, for fans, fighters, and the sport itself...

    boxing is walking dead... more of a spectacle than a sport.....

    Boxing needs to change its business model if they want to stay relevant. My ideas are as follows: 1. Get rid of the WBC, WBA, IBF, WBO, IBO, etc. 2. Get rid of Top Rank, Golden Boy, etc. 3. Get rid of the extra weight divisions (Super, Jr.) and go back to the original weight divisions. 4. Get rid of Al Haymon, Gary Shaw, Bob Arum, Don King, etc. 5. Make PPV cheaper and have better undercard's. 6. Establish a commission/league to rule boxing (NHL, NBA, UFC, etc).

    Boxing runs its business like a cassette walkman, UFC runs its business like an iPad. Boxing isn't a dead sport yet but a mismanaged one.

    No need to tarnish walkman's by that.

    i don't buy Mayweather or Pac fights anymore...boycott. bob arum will never match manny with floyd as long as he's able to make a killing matching him with other Top Rank fighters. the only way they'll fight each other is if they stop getting high PPV buys from other matches. i can't think of another sport/competition IN THE WORLD where the best simply won't face each other.
