116-112 for hopkins was rediculous...
but so was taylor winning the 12th round on a judges scorecard........
no one scored it 116-112 for hopkins.
Yes, Jerry Roth did. And so did I. It was even thru 8 rounds at 4 a piece. Then Hopkins dominated. The 11th could almost be a 10-8 rounds it was so bad. Rest assured it would have been if Taylor had been the one dominating. GOd I love crooked Judges!!!! :
