I don't normally watch boxing (I am, though, a rabid MMA fan) but this one I've got to see: Hopkins (age 46) vs. Dawson on Saturday night:

Dawson leans on Scully to prepare for Hopkins - Boxing - Yahoo! Sports (http://sports.yahoo.com/box/news;_ylt=Ap6trAJcZ4LHm33YahjqmsiUxLYF?slug=ki-iole_scully_dawson_hopkins_100611)

I'm rooting for the underdog, Hopkins.

Surely he has a chance, doesn't he? :o

What a farce this fight was. Dawson picked Hopkins up and threw him onto his back. Hopkins then claimed a dislocated shoulder because of it. The referee did not give Hopkins a count, but just ended the fight and gave the win to Dawson.

I am reminded why I don't watch Boxing much anymore. MMA is far better to watch, and far better organized.

People must like boxing. That rock-em sock-em robot movie with Hugh Jackman is #1 in the box office for 2 weeks.
