Hopkins vs. Dawson on HBO PPV Oct 15th (Offical Sat Night chat thread)

Get that man some rubber cement and duct tape. Did well to fight through the blood though...Demarco needs to def knock him out.

That was a hell of a fight, give DeMarco credit, 11th round KO.

Did you see DeMarco literally bow over Freddie Roach's hand? I thought he was going to kiss his ring!

Skin that isn't durable can really limit one.

Jesus

Jesus christ that was gross.

I love it when Manny, Max or Lampley get all over some Pugs nuts, and they end up getting KTFO.. hehehe

God Bless Dewey Bozella.

What a story.

fwwl bad for linares, don't know what made him decide to engage like a madman there at the end...

Sheer desperation. He was battered and out of gas and decided to go out on his shield.

That was a great fight, have to feel sorry for Linares, he fought his heart out.

I'm really surprised so many of you think Hopkins is winning easy tonight.

I really want him to win, but I see him as a big underdog here. Of course you can't write him off. I didn't expect him to beat Pavlik, Tarver of Pascal first time around either...

Prove me wrong Bhop.

Nice nice nice Demarco is a damn fine finisher. Underneath he rips em. Great scrap

I mean credit to demarco for winning but just feel bad for linares cause he was boxing beautifully for a majority of the fight

Not me, I have Dawson winning on PTS.

Not to be on linares' nuts but fuck he just made me a huge fan, fuck it if he lost, just the way he fought especially at the end, hope he gets a rematch down the line. Wish funeka was still in the mix but he's fightin some cabdriver over in africa can't blame him tho since seemingly he gets boned every time he fights over here

Alright, here we go with the main, Dawson already in the ring, X on his way, let's get ready to rumble.

Bernard Hopkins vs. Chad Dawson, 12 rounds, for Hopkins' Ring/WBC light heavyweight title

Time for a beer. :drinker:

Makes me wana go buy his boxset and actually give hbo 50 freakin dollars for that performance alone

Like the "I did it my way" better for Hopkins, not this crappy remix

At the crossroads right here...school em Bernard! Dawson better attack from jump off

Remind me of the age gap in this fight?!

Time is up for the old man, send him away Dawson!

It is fun hop could be dawsons actual daddy

It's October, 2011 and I just heard Buffer say "Light heavyweight champion of the world, Bernard Hopkins"

It's not possible. I mean I first saw BHOP at the Blu Horizon in like 1991.

It is IMPOSSIBLE

bout 17 years or so ;D

[laughing]

The old BHOP 1-2. The lead right and the head!

Hmm, Hopkins looks like dog poo.

BHOP won the round while feinting and half punching a dozen times to see how Chad reacts to things. Man he's smart.

Bernard looks really unstable on his legs these days...

I gave Dawson the first round, slightly busier and the aggressor.

Yup. Good call.

I think I won't be missing much if I dip out now...

THAT oughtta be a DQ!

Hopkins going the Calzaghe/Jones Jr two route. :rolleyes:

Antwun Echols 2 all over again ?

WTF, is this fight over?

Lame, lame, lame. Hopkins should retire and fans should get a refund. Awful.

This is totally large part mental for Dawson clearly

gave him 1st ohhhh what the fuck?!! What a cynical bunch lmao. Guy gets slammed and we blame him
