    Some people think Hopkins faked the injury to the knee. Because Allen was actually wining the fight and was begining to gain momentum.
    I haven't seen the fight in a long time but I think that's how the fight was going. I have about 30 Hopkins fights and I know I haven't seen them all but I've seen the Allen trilogy for sure...
    Going through this just now Hopkins had a couple of rematches he shouldn't have what the hell did he fight Echols twice for?
    The fight was even up till Hopkins fell out of the ring, I don't think it was his knee that he hurt. Could of been but i think it was his shoulder, i will have to check it out later.

    Elchols became number 1 IBF contender making Hopkins fight him a second time, both fights were actually quite good. Second one was a dirty fight though.

    That makes sense about the Echols fight.

    Quite a few of the fights mentioned were mandatories. Others made MONEY sense.

    Not sure if this has been covered because im simply above back tracking through threads (new members game) but for me i just knew that Lennox would Smash Rahman down like a bag of shit tied up with string in the middle as soon as the rematch was announced and f*ck me he hit him hard..."One..Two...BANG"
    Do miss Lennox

    Some of these fight could be considered stay busy fights. .....in keeping ring rust off, no fight is pointless.
