Hopkins didn't win! My Scorecard.

[Evil Abed]

You can debate 5 and 8.

But Hopkins won round 9.

Watch it again.

I thought Hopkins won the fight close. I thought he definitely won more rounds but with the 2 knockdowns that took the points down on Hopkins side.

I watched the fight and here is my detailed scorecard.

1 Pascal 10-8 (Pascal winning the round plus KD)
2 Hopkins 10-9 (Close round)
3 Pascal 10-8 (Hopkins down, and Pascal landed nice shots leading up to the KD as well)
4 ?Even?
5 Pascal 10-9
6 Hopkins 10-9
7 Hopkins 10-9
8 Pascal 10-9 (Close Round)
9 Pascal 10-9
10 Hopkins 10-9
11 Hopkins 10-9
12 Hopkins 10-9

My final score is 114-113 in favour of Jean Pascal.

Please note that I have only watched the fight once, and sometimes when watching the fight a second time, you can have a differing opinion.

While I do think round 8, which I scored for Pascal, could have been closer to even. That still renders a 114-114 DRAW.

Either way,

THIS WAS A CLOSE FIGHT. This was not a robbery. Hopkins was not robbed, and honestly I dont think he won the fight.

Even if Hopkins did win the fight, it was by a margin of only 1 or 2 points, and THUS, ITS STILL NOT A ROBBERY.

A Robbery is when a fighter wins like 8 rounds to 4 with no knockdowns but sitll loses (ie Kotelnik/Alexander)

These people also scored rounds 5,8,and 9 for Pascal.

I just watched the first 3 rds and the first was 10-9 Pascal,the 2nd was Hops round,3rd was Pascal 10-8,outside of those rds i have Pascal losing every rd.

I cant agree at all. I only gave Pascal the 2 rounds he won, being generous would be giving him maybe another round and thats being nice. He didnt do much after the 3rd round and Hopkins clearly landed the more effective punches in every round, even thr rounds where Pascal got knockdowns BHop landed the cleaner punches. Pascal was getting countered and jabbed all night, he was getting destroyed to the body even in the first 3 rounds. This fight was not even close IMO on a technical level.

I scored the fight 116-110, IMO Pascal didnt win any of the rounds besides the knockdown rounds. Just look at the fight from 3-12. Tell me which round did Pascal get the best of B Hop? He didnt land many effective punches and was backing up running for the last half of the fight.

I agree. He didnt do anything after the 3rd round. This fight being called a draw is without a doubt a robbery for a 45 year old man.

You know you won a fight when you get a draw in that guys hometown.

I didn't know that a draw wasn't a possible outcome for a boxing match...strange...thanks for letting me know

[daggum]

do people not score body punches or something? those body punches were the most effective shots in the fight(aside from the knockdowns)
