Lol Murat couldnt even hang with Cleverly, but he's seen as a power puncher here.

Hopkins is well ahead but hes actually fighting a stupid fight. This type of fight is the only type he can lose to a guy like this - just standing right in front of him and laying against the ropes.

Showtime commentary saying...."what does Hopkins want to do? Does he want to KO him?" LOL like Hopkins is going to KO Murat.

He wouldn't fight Kovalev this way.
I still think Kovalev would beat him because Kovalev's work rate is very high.
I think Kovalev would beat him as well.

Rafael has given a ton of rounds to Murat, not that him being an idiot is anything new.

This is the most entertaining "The Alien" has been in many a moon. I can't believe he is actually entertaining me tonight.

Hopkins punches after Smoger says break and Smoger just smiles. Murat does the same exact thing and gets points and warnings. This is why I'll never be a Hopkins fan and I dont see how anyone can respect this crap.

It doesn't matter what kind of shot Murat lands the Showtime crew doesn't even mention it. Horrible commentary the whole night.

2 of the 3 scored the first 3 rounds for Murat. I think they're giving Murat his due credit. Hopkins is just winning it. Legitimately
