If someone is dominating to me, is to completely win a fight, leaving absolutely no chance for an opponent to win or look at all good in the least, and that was never the case with either Taylor/Hopkins fight. Taylor was never "dominating" Bernard Hopkins in either of the fights, even though i agreed he won the decision in the 2nd one. Make sure you understand what the word "dominate" means. (examples: Wright dominated Trinidad. Mayweather dominated Gatti.)Last edited by restless_438; 02-03-2006, 03:15 PM.

At any rate, IDon'tWatchBoxing is a complete ****ing idiot, and everyone knows it. Not a single person here takes what he says seriously, because he just doesn't know what he's talking about.

Originally posted by BadMagickJust because the judges score it one way doesn't mean that everyone saw it that way. I thought B-Hop won the first fight by a narrow margin, and I never watched the second one (was never able to get a hold of it). Further, just because a fighter wins 9 rounds to 3 doesn't mean that he's dominated everyone of those rounds. They could have all been very close rounds (haven't seen Hop-Taylor II, so I don't know), and, therefore, the losing fighter was not dominated.

Originally posted by raesaadThis is a good post.......Taylor did more in the second fight and since he was the Champ he did not deserve to lose.....Just like Hopkins did not deserve to lose the first fight.The Challenger has to TAKE the title IMO.

Originally posted by BadMagickI agree. The problem is that Taylor should never have had the belts in the first place, and therefore should not have been able to have that advantage over B-Hop in the second fight.
