ugh... I was hoping he'd lose so that he would just stop taking fights but that was sad.

well there goes one past-his-prime guy, and later tonight we get B-Hop.

RJJ's broke?

RJJ's broke?

Broke as fuck. He owes the IRS a ton of money.

Can't really feel sorry for dude, he made a lot of money fighting stiffs and seems like he fucked up despite that. I do feel sorry watching him getting whacked around by a guy like Denis though.

chad dawson has the intensity of a slug

 

[dream]

DLH is in rehab?!

 

[Esch]

doesn't surprise me. he's been looking gaunt and sweaty a lot recently, cheeks flushed, think it's probably blow

 

[BigKaboom2]

I hope Hopkins and Pascal bring the hate. Face Off was hilarious.

 

[Alex Anderson]

Bernard's walk out music is classic for this, lol

 

[BigKaboom2]

They played the wrong music initially for Pascal.

 

[dream]

Can Hopkins win? I don't know if I have it in me to watch a 4th aging legend get put down today...

 

[BigKaboom2]

ARE YOU WILLING TO TAKE THE TEST

Hopkins will win this with ease.

p.s. Was Severn one of the legends or did I miss one?

 

[Alex Anderson]

Can Hopkins win? I don't know if I have it in me to watch a 4th aging legend get put down today...

I'm hoping he can, he seems motivated and hopefully Pascal will gas again

Yeah, Dan (although I enjoyed that one), RJJ, and Ninja...all in 1 day.

 

[gray_fox224]

No pics of Shane Mosely's wife?

 

[Plasmid]

Hopkins.

Pascal's a dick.

 

[dream]

What the hell is this shit?

this ref has absolutely no control over the fight.

 

[polyh3dron]

Who the fuck is this guy and what has he done with the boring boxer named Bernard Hopkins?

 

[polyh3dron]

looool @ the pushups

B-Hop be trollin

 

[polyh3dron]

Worst boxing ref ever

 

[BigKaboom2]

This has exceeded all my expectations.

 

[Kifimbo]

This is a replica of the last fight. Only difference is that Hopkins wasn't knocked once tonight. He'll win this time.

 

[dream]

I haven't seen a ref that commands this little respect since Nick Patrick joined the nWo.

 

[Plasmid]

This is great, hopkins pushups and getting some good pushups, although this is an annoying ref.

 

[Knux-Future]

Hopkins is such a troll

 

[Esch]

fight is great i have hopkins 5-3

 

[polyh3dron]

fight is great i have hopkins 5-3

Same, I don't know WTF Lederman is smoking

 

[polyh3dron]

2 knockdowns that haven't been counted, WTF

 

[Esch]

is this ref trying to fuck hops over? CLEAR knockdowns, especially the 2nd

fucking disgrace, i hope they don't fuck hopkins the man is the clear winner here

 

[Plasmid]

Good last round, he's got this.

 

[Kifimbo]

Either 8-4 or 7-5.

 

[Esch]

a beautiful performance by bernard. really. win or lose with fucking corrupt bullshit, he is a champion again. he took the man to school. he didn't need the knockout

i'm proud

 

[dream]

I think the ref is the real winner tonight. Never have I seen such a feeble man try to take control of a prize fight.

whoa, it looked like Nazim was about to scrap

 

[Esch]

WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


i bet even foreman's proud of that

 

[Plasmid]

Done, oldest ever, Great fight, fuck the last few fights, set pascal down tonight.

 

[Baby Milo]

brilliant performance from Bernard

 

[Alex Anderson]

So relieved the judges didn't fuck him. Had to win 8 rounds to eek it out

 

[dream]

poly, did you know we almost had Nick Diaz vs my favorite boxer of all time Fernando Vargas happen?

 

[Esch]

holy shit did he just take a shot at Jones with that broke/fucked up quote?

 

[polyh3dron]

I don't want to see B-Hop fight Bootay

And yeah he def took a shot not only at Jones, but lots of broke washed up fighters who take fights they shouldn't just to get a paycheck.

 

[JLG-]

Great fucking performance by Hopkins!

 

[polyh3dron]

poly, did you know we almost had Nick Diaz vs my favorite boxer of all time Fernando Vargas happen?

Yes I did know it was rumored along with a Jeff Lacy fight.. Looks like he may be fighting Georges St Pierre instead.

 

[dream]

I would pay $500 for a press conference, a weigh-in, a staredown, and a boxing match between Nick Diaz and Fernando Vargas.

 

[Jamesfrom818]

I didn't see one warning to Pascale for hitting the back of the head.

 

[J Tourettes]

I didn't see one warning to Pascale for hitting the back of the head.

IJL seemed to struggle in there last night and he's not the greatest ref at the best of times. Do think that Hopkins previous may have coloured his judgment though.

Despite that Hopkins pulled out the win, I hope they can get out of fighting Dawson next and head straight for Butterworth. 46 and out performing the younger man was very impressive.

 

[Esch]

who the fuck in the fuck is butterworth? bute?

LOL, i wouldn't mind seeing Dawson-Hopkins though, if only because hopkins would bend him over and break him like a pennsylvania state inmate.

:lol Was posting from my phone but yeah Bute.

 

[JLG-]

Anyone watching FNF? Arreola and my boy Molina fighting tonight.
I went to school with Javier Molina.

 

[Esch]

^coooool.

arreolas in there now

 

[Esch]

Pacquiao Marquez III goes global: Tokyo, Manila, London, New York, Los Angeles and Mexico City

this fight is gonna do ungodly numbers

 

[polyh3dron]

So, what's the next big fight? The Hopkins fight was awesome, can't wait for some more good boxing.

Is the Morales/Maidana rematch happening?
