Ah damn it Chach.
I have to say that is annoying, but oh well, I suppose it just means you can get 10 extra points.

Both Jones Hopkins pictures should up to post so is it my equipment now no its the site not me and it is some Bullshit I wish you guys cared as much as I do but I guess nobody loves Boxing like me. I care for the sport most of you guys playing a game trying to get points so sad you should be ashamed of yourself if that is your attitude. Stop scoring if only care about point collecting you wasting your time and ours cause that's vain and does nothing but make you look like you can't score the sport. I'am so glad I hold myself to a standard every fight I score.

Re: Bernard Hopkins vs Roy Jones Jr II
A stink-fest with a stank worse than a garbage dump. Featuring two old farts, I mean faded legends, no I mean old farts after all, making a mockery out of their profession.
I have no idea why I ever decided to watch and score this fight. It was bland like their first one, but at least their first match had an air of legitimacy around it. What do we see in this fight? Roy Jones Jr with his impotent feints, yea his feints were still there but he had long lost the explosive athleticism to make his feints appear dangerous. Hopkins with his master-class acting, we get it Mr Hopkins, rabbit punches are unsportsmanlike and bad, so why did you rabbit-punch Mr Jones??
Bernard Hopkins really proved nothing we did not already know, we all know he aged infinitely better than Jones and obviously it showed in this fight. It was a sad sight to see the badly faded Jones being headbutted, low-blowed and rabbit-punched by Hopkins without repercussions in this fight.
The only thing remotely rewarding about watching this fight is seeing Hopkins being rabbit-punched by Jones and Hopkins cowering on the ground. Live by the foul, die by the foul. But then again, if I wanted this sort of manufactured, maudlin stunt I would have watched pro-wrestling.
What is entertaining about this fight? Anything but the fight itself. Roberto Duran in the seats waving and smiling at the camera (quite obviously this fight did not earn his attention). Evander Holyfield was in the seats too, staring with a 'wtf am I watching' face. Sugar Ray Leonard commentating this fight as a "very interesting fight", with a voice so dry my throat felt parched upon hearing it. Simply hearing the ringside commentators desperately trying to use all sorts of buzzwords like 'drama' and 'emotional' to spin the fight as something it was not was more entertaining than the fight itself.
Okay, actually writing this criticism is the most entertaining thing about this fight! It was a cathartic moment to give this fight a one-star rating.
'Sad' is a generous way to describe this fight, I think 'wretched' is a more appropriate word.
Looking at this lackluster fight retrospectively sevens years after it ended: old fart Hopkins went on to become the oldest world champion in boxing history and kindly retired after falling through the ropes in an ill-advised comeback bout, meanwhile old fart Jones fought a bunch of nobody and lost a few more fights by knockout and yet he refused to retire. Sometimes the way the boxing world is...is simply so twisted that I wanted to laugh but only tears came out.
