Dawson's camp questions injury

[Pugilistic]

As Dawkins says to the creationists 'show me the evidence'. Hopkins injury is currently up there with the claims of the Bible bashers. All we have are the words of a doctor and nothing more. It is akin to getting your facts from the pulpit.

Show us the scans, Bernard. Otherwise I call your bluff. I can claim to be the Queen and have Bilbo back me up, but those words are proof of nothing.

How much proof do you need ? Doctor has said there was an injury, that's more than enough.

What reason would Bernard have to fake an injury to get out of the fight after only 2 rounds of action where both rounds were competitive and neither guy landed anything significant.

If Dawson was kicking his ass in those rounds fine but faking an injury with the way those rounds went, i just don't see it.

Doctors are not always reliable. Pay them enough and they will make things up and become as corrupt as anyone else. In fact many doctors are nothing more than legalised drug dealers. They are all too willing to give you your quick fix.

I would prefer to see evidence rather than take the word of a well paid doctor.

While i agree to a certain extent that doctors aren't always reliable, this doctor would be putting alot on the line to lie about a big fight like this so i just don't see him making it up.

I also don't see why Hopkins would fake an injury when the fight only went two rounds and neither guy did anything of note in those two rounds.

I'd understand if Dawson was dominating but he wasn't. Both fighters were feeling each other out at that point.

I think your making something out of nothing with Hopkins "faking" really. He had no reason to so just accept he got hurt and let's move on.
