if Hopkins wouldn't have gotten injured from it the fine whatever, a warning then fight on, but the fact that Hopkins DID GET INJURED, AND SERIOUSLY INJURED AT THAT, and the fact that it happened before the 4th merits that it be ruled a NC

doesn't matter how you try to spin it Dawson fucked up, and is lucky that they're only pursuing a NC and not a DQ cause that could very well apply in this situation, and i dunno if it's just me, if a guy that i'm sure i can beat just robbed me of a career defining fight (at least that's how his retarded as put it), i'd be the first one calling for a rematch i wouldn't be saying "rematch?!?! hell no i'm not given him a rematch"
I had Dawson winning the first and second rounds up until the body slam and I thought either way you had the rounds, it appeared Bernard was going to have problems with Dawson's speed and size. Dawson looked a good amount bigger than Bernard in there. Certainly, there is no way to know and in fact you saw something different.

What I thought I saw was Bernard leaning over Chad in a somewhat dirty fashion to put his weight on Chad and Chad then nudging him off. Then to buy more time Bernard wouldn't get up (which would be par for the course for Bernard fights). My question is: since it was only the 2nd round, and they could stop it before the 4th on the body slam, why didn't Bernard just get up and fight on and see how his shoulder felt after a round or two? Why did he say he wouldn't continue? I think what he actually said was something like "with one arm" as if to say no I can't.
the ref asked him, Can you continue, the first thing out his mouth was yes

and you can't have it both ways, how would Hopkins "putting his weight on Dawson" affect him at all if as you said Dawson seemed like the bigger fighter, Chad was simply frustrated with Hopkins defense and awkward style and was looking to vent so he slammed him then went on to make a bigger ass of himself parading around the ring like if he actually won the championship, to really break it down, the slam and Dawson's wannabe gangster act at the end of the fight is the only time that his ass has acted "Bad", the dude has a giant shit stain running across his record and his rep
