Re: Hopkins vs Murat
He was ranked in the Top 10 I believe by most observers and he was the IBF mandatory. He put up a good effort.AuggieWren wrote:Again I ask: Why was Murat in the ring tonight?

Re: Hopkins vs Murat
Fun card tonight but the reffing and commentary were horrid.
Re: Hopkins vs Murat
Because Murat's a german legend. Everyone is a winner. Everyone is great, it's only a matter of what order of greatness you come in.
Re: Hopkins vs Murat
I had no problem with the commentary, I agree Steve Smoger seemed to favor Hopkins quite a bit. His shoving Murat at the end of the bout...I've never seen anything like that from a referee.Baby Face Finster wrote:Fun card tonight but the reffing and commentary were horrid.
I think Steve Smoger is a great referee and has done a great job repeatedly in his career, but this was definitely not one of his shining moments.
Re: Hopkins vs Murat
He's certainly no legend, but he seemed to be a legit contender and fought like one. I wonder how a 48 year old Ezzard Charles or Archie Moore would've done against Murat tonight?Blodhemn wrote:Because Murat's a german legend. Everyone is a winner.

Re: Hopkins vs Murat

Re: Hopkins vs Murat
And how did Murat qualify for this title shot?
Re: Hopkins vs Murat
Nobody is saying that Murat didn't give his best effort............we're just saying his best isn't very good............and that is being polite to Murat.
Re: Hopkins vs Murat
He was an IBF mandatory. So you have the ABC org's to thank for that sh*t.AuggieWren wrote:And how did Murat qualify for this title shot?
I think he gave a legitimately game effort. He wasn't on the level of Hopkins, but he came to win.
I've definitely seen far worse title fights and challengers.
Re: Hopkins vs Murat
I wish all title challengers tried as hard as Murat. Almost all of them bring more skill to try with but too many of them show up for a check not a belt.
Re: Hopkins vs Murat
You cant decipher what "your ass is brown" means? It means you are full of sh*t, even the whites of your eyeballs are turning brown. Remember when you claimed to be American in response to all your anti-american BS you spew on here? Bro, you dont even have to open your cyber-mouth, one look alone at your SN and you clearly are not american. Why would you lie to faceless internet caricatures in regards to your nationality? I guess that's your not so subtle way of masking/defending your hatred and racism. Piss poor. Do better.Blodhemn wrote:![]()

Since I see you here Blodhemn, what's your screenname mean if you don't mind saying so?

Just 1 point off from my scores on both. I have no problem with those scores.DetroitHxC wrote:I had it 87-83 Quillin, and 116-11 Hopkins.
I had 86-84 Quillin and 117-110 Hopkins respectively.
